Effective Tattoo Removal
Unwanted tattoos can be a persistent reminder of past decisions, often difficult to remove with traditional methods that are painful and ineffective.At Advanced Aesthetic Clinic, we proudly offer both Q-switched Nd:YAG and Alexandrite Laser technologies, enhancing our ability to treat even complex, multi-coloured tattoos effectively.
With the recent addition of the PicoSure Pro laser—renowned as the best-in-class for tattoo removal—we have solidified our reputation as one of South and West Ireland's premier laser tattoo removal centers..
The World’s 1st 755nm Picosecond Laser
The PicoSure Pro device delivers 755nm energy in picoseconds; the delivery is so quick that it spares the skin from high thermal damage while optimally targeting unwanted pigment, wrinkles, acne scars and pores with less downtime than traditional lasers.
PicoSure combines patented PressureWave™ Technology with the use of three nominal wavelengths (532, 755 and 1064nm) alongside stringent certifications from the FDA and TGA to give you the confidence and ability to treat even the most complex tattoo indications.
Cynosure’s Revlite Si Q-Switched Laser
Technology for Tattoo, Skin, and Pigment
The Revlite SI, built on the original ConBio™ Q-Switched laser technology, is a multi-wavelength system known for its outstanding efficacy, comfort, and power. Trusted by practitioners worldwide, it offers exceptional versatility and performance.
Power, Versatility, and Flexibility
Utilize 1064nm and 532nm wavelengths for non-ablative skin resurfacing, wrinkle and acne scar reduction, pigmented lesion treatment (including melasma), and effective tattoo removal across a range of colours.
Before undergoing laser treatment, please ensure that none of the following contraindications apply to you:
Before undergoing laser treatment, please consider the following:
On average, it takes about 4-6 sessions of laser tattoo removal to lighten the tattoo sufficiently for a cover-up. However, the exact number of sessions required depends on various factors such as the size, color, and depth of the existing tattoo
Yes, complete tattoo removal is achievable through laser treatments. However, it may require more sessions, typically around 12-13, depending on factors like the ink color, skin type, and the tattoo's age and location.
It's recommended to wait at least 4-6 weeks after your final laser tattoo removal session before getting a cover-up tattoo. This allows your skin to fully heal and ensures optimal results for the new tattoo.
While laser tattoo removal may cause some discomfort, most Cients find it tolerable. Advanced technologies like the Revlite Si from Cynosure and Zimmer Cold Air used at our clinic minimize pain and ensure a more comfortable experience.
When performed by our experienced professionals using advanced laser technology, such as the Revlite Si, the risk of scarring is minimal. Our skilled specialists take every precaution to ensure safe and effective tattoo removal with minimal risk of scarring.
We offer free quotations for laser tattoo removal sessions. Simply contact our clinic to schedule a consultation with one of our specialists. During the consultation, we'll assess your tattoo and provide you with a personalized treatment plan, including cost estimates for the required sessions.
Laser tattoo removal works by emitting pulses of light energy that penetrate the skin and break down the tattoo ink into smaller particles. These particles are then absorbed and eliminated by the body’s immune system over time. Different wavelengths of laser light are used to target various ink colors effectively.
Yes, laser tattoo removal is considered safe when performed by trained professionals using advanced laser technology. At our clinic, we use the Revlite Si from Cynosure, which ensures minimal risk of side effects and scarring. It’s important to follow post-treatment care instructions to promote proper healing.
The number of sessions required varies based on factors such as the tattoo's size, color, age, and depth. On average, it takes between 6-12 sessions for complete removal. Lighter tattoos and certain colors may require fewer sessions, while more complex tattoos may need more.
Some discomfort is associated with laser tattoo removal, often described as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. However, most patients find it tolerable. We use Zimmer cooling devices to minimize pain during the procedure.
To prepare for a laser tattoo removal session, avoid sun exposure and tanning on the treated area for at least four / six weeks prior. Do not apply any lotions, creams, or makeup on the tattoo before the session. Additionally, avoid taking aspirin or other blood-thinning medications, as they can increase the risk of bruising.
After a laser tattoo removal session, you may experience redness, swelling, and minor blistering in the treated area. These side effects typically subside within a few days. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid sun exposure, and follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by your specialist to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
✨ Thinking of getting a tattoo? Here’s a tip for long-lasting results! ✨
Consider permanent hair reduction in the area you’re planning to tattoo.
Why? Removing hair before your tattoo session ensures a cleaner, smoother canvas for your artist, and it also means you won’t have to worry about shaving over your ink afterward!
Plus, laser hair removal can reduce irritation around the tattoo, helping to keep your new design looking crisp and vibrant.
Say goodbye to unwanted hair and hello to flawless ink! 💫

A traumatic tattoo, also known as an accidental tattoo, occurs when particles such as dirt, asphalt, or other foreign materials become embedded in the skin due to an injury. Unlike traditional tattoos, which are created intentionally with ink, traumatic tattoos result from accidents and can be unsightly and emotionally distressing.
Description: Commonly result from road accidents where asphalt particles are driven into the skin.
Challenges:
The dark coloration and the depth of the particles can make removal difficult.
Description: Happen when pencil lead (graphite) is embedded into the skin, usually from accidents involving pencils.
Challenges:
Although less common, the grey-black coloration can be tricky to eliminate.
Description:
Gunpowder tattoos occur when gunpowder residues are forced into the skin, often seen in military or firearm-related accidents.
Challenges:
The chemical nature of gunpowder can complicate the laser removal process.
Conclusion:
We hypothesize that the rapid transfer of high-energy pulses to the powder particles causes micro-explosions of these fragments, leading to cavitation and provoking transdermal perforations and subsequent scarring.
For this reason, we are unable to remove gunpowder tattoos.
Description: Result from metal fragments or shrapnel embedding in the skin, typically from explosions or industrial accidents.
Challenges:
Metals can cause significant pigmentation changes and may require specialized treatment.
Coal or Carbon Tattoos
Description: Occur when coal or carbon particles become lodged in the skin, often seen in miners or industrial workers.
Challenges: The deep black pigmentation is particularly resistant to standard removal techniques.
Plant-Based Tattoos
Description: Happen when plant materials, like thorns or splinters, are embedded in the skin and release pigments.
Challenges: Plant-based particles may cause inflammatory reactions, complicating the removal process.
Our clinic specializes in the safe and effective removal of traumatic tattoos using state-of-the-art laser technology. Our experienced team ensures a personalized approach, tailoring treatments to each individual's needs to achieve the best possible outcomes.
If you have a traumatic tattoo and are considering removal, contact us today to schedule a consultation and start your journey towards clearer skin.

What are Medical Tattoos?
Medical tattoos, also known as paramedical tattoos, are tattoos used for medical purposes rather than for decorative or aesthetic reasons.
These tattoos are often applied to camouflage scars, reconstruct areolas after breast surgery, or enhance features such as eyebrows or lips for individuals with medical conditions like alopecia or vitiligo.
Here are the types of medical tattoos and considerations for their removal using laser technology:
Scar Camouflage Tattoos
Description: These tattoos are used to conceal scars resulting from surgeries, accidents, or medical conditions.
Challenges: Scar tissue may require multiple sessions for effective coverage. However, if light colours or skin tones are used in the tattoo, laser removal can be challenging because laser technology typically struggles with pastel shades and colours that closely match the skin tone. In such cases, laser pigment removal might not be effective.
Areola Reconstruction Tattoos
Description: These tattoos mimic the appearance of the areola and nipple after breast reconstruction surgery.
Challenges:
The natural and realistic colours used in these tattoos can be difficult to remove, especially if lighter pigments are involved. Multiple sessions may be required, and complete removal might not be possible if pastel shades are used.
Eyebrow Enhancement Tattoos
Description: Used to fill in sparse or thinning eyebrows, often for individuals with alopecia or other hair loss conditions.
Challenges: The pigments used for eyebrow tattoos can vary widely. Darker pigments are easier to remove, while lighter or skin-toned pigments can be resistant to laser treatment.
Laser pigment removal may not be effective for lighter shades.
Lip Tattooing
Description: Enhances lip shape, definition, and colour, commonly for individuals with cleft lip or those seeking permanent makeup solutions.
Challenges: Lip tattoos often use natural and light colours, which can be difficult to remove with laser treatment. Multiple sessions may be needed, and lighter pigments might not respond well to the laser.
Additionally, when red pigments are used in lip tattooing, laser removal can sometimes cause the treated area to turn black due to the oxidation of the pigment during the laser treatment process.
Vitiligo Camouflage Tattoos
Description: Used to tattoo depigmented areas caused by vitiligo to match the surrounding skin tone.
Challenges: Since these tattoos aim to match the skin tone, they often use light and pastel colours, which are challenging to remove with laser technology.
Effective laser removal in such cases may not be achievable.
Scalp Micropigmentation
Description: Mimics the appearance of a closely shaved head for individuals with baldness or thinning hair.
Challenges: The pigments used for scalp micropigmentation are typically darker, making them more responsive to laser removal. However, multiple sessions may still be required for complete removal.
