Laser Tattoo Removal

We understand that choosing laser tattoo removal is a significant decision, and we aim to alleviate any concerns by harnessing top technology, the Astanza Trinity, to ensure maximum comfort during every treatment.
To understand how laser tattoo removal works, it's essential to understand the basics of tattooing.
Ink Deposit:
The tattooing process involves needles penetrating the skin to deposit ink particles into the middle layer of skin.
Immune Response:
This action triggers an immediate response from the body's immune system.
Over Time:
White blood cells are sent to target and eliminate the foreign ink particles, causing the tattoo to fade over time.
HOW IT WORKS
HOW IT WORKS
Laser technology is the most effective solution for efficiently and safely removing tattoo ink from the skin.
The Astanza Trinity emits rapid pulses of light energy that precisely target and eliminate the ink particles trapped in that middle layer of skin.
The versatility of the Trinity lies in its three wavelengths (1064 nm, 532 nm, and 694 nm), which allow it to target and treat all ink colors effectively. Darker colors like black and brown are addressed by the 1064 nm wavelength, warm colors like red and orange by the 532 nm wavelength, and stubborn pigments such as bright blue and green by the unique 694 nm wavelength.
This powerful technology ensures no tattoo is too challenging to treat.
This process is repeated over multiple sessions until the tattoo ink is completely removed or until the desired outcome is achieved. The desired outcome differs for everyone as some clients may want a tattoo completely removed while someone else may want it faded to make it easier for a cover-up.
