At Hailey Dallas Brows, we specialise in safe and effective body tattoo removal using state-of-the-art Q-Switched laser technology. Whether you want to remove an unwanted tattoo completely or lighten it for a cover-up, our advanced process ensures optimal results with minimal discomfort.
Our Q-Switched laser uses high-intensity pulses of light to break down the tattoo ink beneath your skin. The laser’s energy is absorbed by the pigment in the tattoo, causing it to fragment into smaller particles. These tiny ink particles are then naturally eliminated by your body’s immune system over time.
The Q-Switched laser is considered the gold standard for tattoo removal because of its precision and versatility.
Targets only the tattoo pigment, leaving surrounding skin unharmed.
Capable of removing a wide range of tattoo ink colours, including dark tones and stubborn hues like green and blue.
Reduces the risk of scarring when compared to older removal methods.
Adjustable settings to suit your skin type, tattoo size, and ink density.
Most clients describe the sensation as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. Sessions are quick, usually lasting 10–30 minutes depending on the tattoo’s size.
Mild redness and swelling are normal but subside within a few days. Proper aftercare ensures your skin heals well and remains healthy.
ND YAG Q-switched laser is a safe and effective method for removing tattoos. The laser emits high-intensity pulses of light that target the tattoo ink, breaking it down into smaller particles, which are then naturally removed by your body’s immune system. This technology is ideal for a variety of tattoo colors and skin types.
The laser works by emitting short pulses of light at specific wavelengths that are absorbed by tattoo ink particles. The energy from the laser breaks down the ink into tiny fragments, which are then eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system over time. This process fades and eventually removes the tattoo.
Tattoo removal can cause some discomfort, most people compare it to the sensation of a rubber band snapping against the skin.
We use cooling methods and the glass slide technique to minimise pain.
The application of an ice pack before and after the procedure helps to numb the area and reduce the initial discomfort. After the procedure, applying ice helps soothe the skin, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing. Most clients find this method very effective in managing discomfort during and after the treatment, without the need for numbing creams.
The number of sessions varies depending on several factors, including the tattoo’s size, colour, depth of ink, and your skin type. Typically, most tattoos require between 5 to 10 sessions spaced 8-12 weeks apart to see significant fading and eventual removal.
The duration of each treatment session depends on the size and complexity of the tattoo, but most sessions typically last between 15 to 30 minutes. Larger tattoos or more intricate designs may take longer.
Side effects are minimal and may include mild redness, swelling, or a slight scab formation at the treatment site. These usually resolve within a few days. In rare cases, some patients may experience temporary pigmentation changes, but these are generally short-term.
After each session, you’ll begin to notice gradual fading of your tattoo. The results are not immediate, as the body needs time to process and eliminate the broken-down ink particles. Full results may take several months, with noticeable improvements after each session.
ND YAG Q-switched laser is effective for most tattoos, including those with black, blue, and green inks. Some colors, like light blues and yellows, may require additional treatment or alternative methods. A consultation will help determine the best approach for your specific tattoo.
Yes, when performed by a trained and experienced technician, laser tattoo removal is considered safe. The ND YAG Q-switched laser has been extensively tested and is approved by regulatory bodies such as the FDA. We ensure the highest safety standards during every session to minimise any risks.
After your tattoo removal session, it’s important to keep the treated area clean and moisturised. Avoid sun exposure for 1 year after completing treatment and apply sunscreen to prevent any pigmentation changes. Refrain from picking at scabs or blisters, as this can lead to scarring or infection. Follow all aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner to ensure optimal healing.
Every client is unique, so the best removal method depends on several factors, such as the type and depth of the pigment, your skin type, and the location of the PMU. A full consultation is essential to assess these factors and develop a customised treatment plan. During this session, we will discuss the most appropriate techniques to ensure the safest and most effective results for you.
The pain level during PMU removal varies depending on the technique used and the sensitivity of your skin. Many clients report mild discomfort, similar to the sensation of having the PMU applied. For treatments like saline or chemical removal, numbing creams can be applied to minimise discomfort. Laser treatments may cause a snapping or tingling sensation, but cooling methods can also be used to reduce pain during the procedure. We always aim to make the process as comfortable as possible for you.
The number of sessions required depends on factors like the size of the PMU, the depth of the pigment, the technique used, and your skin’s response to the treatment. Typically, multiple sessions are required, spaced about 4-12 weeks apart. In some cases, a combination of treatments may speed up the removal process, but we’ll determine the best approach during your consultation.
Side effects are generally mild and temporary. You may experience redness, swelling, or slight scabbing at the treatment site, which typically resolves within a few days. In some cases, there may be slight pigmentation changes, especially if the chemical removal method is used. Our experienced practitioners will guide you on proper aftercare to minimise risks and ensure optimal healing.
Yes, PMU removal can be done on sensitive skin, but it requires extra care and attention. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin’s condition and choose a removal method that’s suitable for your skin type. In some cases, less aggressive techniques may be recommended to minimise irritation.
Scarring is rare but can occur if the skin is not properly cared for after treatment or if the removal method is too harsh for the skin type. We will always aim to minimise any risk of scarring by selecting the most appropriate technique and ensuring you follow proper aftercare instructions.
Each method has its own advantages depending on the PMU’s age, location, and type of pigment used. A consultation is necessary to evaluate the best option for you.
Proper aftercare is crucial to ensure optimal healing and prevent complications. After the procedure, we recommend avoiding sun exposure, applying a soothing ointment, and keeping the treated area clean and dry. You may also need to avoid touching or picking at the area to prevent scarring or infection. We will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions based on the removal method used.
While there is always a small risk of pigmentation changes, this is rare and usually temporary. The risk depends on the removal method, your skin type, and how well you follow aftercare instructions. Laser treatments may cause temporary lightening or darkening of the skin, but this usually resolves over time. We will work with you to minimize risks and ensure the best results.
The cost of PMU removal varies based on the size and complexity of the tattoo, the technique used, and the number of sessions required. During your consultation, we will assess your situation and provide a customised treatment plan along with an accurate cost estimate. Flexible payment options may also be available to make the process more affordable.
Yes, in some cases, combining techniques like laser and saline or chemical removal may help speed up the process, especially for stubborn PMU. However, this will depend on factors like the type of pigment used, your skin’s response, and your individual needs. A full consultation will help us determine if combination treatments are the best approach for your specific situation.
