What is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Trying to figure out how to remove a tattoo? Tattoos are a permanent part of your life. But now, there is a way to remove them. If you’re looking for a way to remove your high-colored tattoos, laser tattoo removal is the answer. This procedure is proven and effective and leaves no trace of unwanted ink. Laser tattoo removal is a standard procedure and takes about an hour. Using a laser, the heat emitted breaks up the tattoo ink on the skin’s surface and lightens it. Alma’s award-winning ClearLift applicator effectively and safely eliminates unwanted dark and multi-colored tattoos. Currently, it is the most comprehensive Q-Switched Nd:YAG treatment solution available. The ClearLift delivers nanosecond pulses that create a photoacoustic effect on the target area. It is highly effective at removing tattoos and hyperpigmentation due to its mechanical Q-switch action. Even though it is not an immediate solution (multiple sessions are needed to lighten a tattoo fully), it is effective in lessening the appearance of a tattoo.
How does it work?
Laser tattoo removal involves breaking up ink pigments in the skin using heat emitted from a laser. Solid particles in tattoo ink give the tattoo its vibrancy and potent staying power. Lasers are the only entity that can break down these pigments. The Harmony XL Pro from Alma is a clinically proven laser treatment. Every color of ink requires a different wavelength of light and energy to be efficiently removed. ClearLift is a high-powered Q-switched laser that can operate two different wavelengths to be effective with darker colors and brighter colors like red and orange.
As time passes, the body’s lymphatic system disposes of the ink fragments. As a result of this natural healing process, the tattoo fades with minimal risk of scarring or discoloration. After a number of sessions, you’ll have clear, ink-free skin.
A few days after each treatment, your skin may be red and sting like a sunburn. However, you should be able to resume your normal activities immediately. Keep the treated area out of the sun for at least 6 weeks. Once the wound has healed, you should put sunblock with an SPF of 30 or higher whenever you’re in the sun.
What are the benefits of Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal has several notable advantages, most of which are related to its non-surgical nature. These advantages include the following:
- The laser light will not leave scars on your healthy skin cells. Compared to methods involving “sanding” the skin, scarring is extremely unlikely with this removal method.
- Unlike other methods, the laser tattoo removal method can effectively fade and remove tattoos without leaving lasting effects.
- Laser tattoo removal requires minimum recovery. After laser tattoo removal treatments, your skin needs to be protected from ultraviolet radiation for a few days. The treatment may cause some redness and tenderness, but these effects should subside within a few days.
- With laser tattoo removal, you can remove a specific tattoo or clean an entire region of your body of tattoos.
- Laser tattoo removal is one of the safest methods of removing tattoos. As a result of the treatment, there is a minimal infection risk and few undesirable side effects, and overall comfort remains high throughout the treatment process.
How much does Laser Tattoo Removal cost?
It depends on your tattoo’s size, style, color, depth, and age (how long you’ve had it). These factors can be discussed to recommend the appropriate treatment. We offer complimentary consultations so that we can provide a more precise price quote based on your unique tattoo removal needs. At your first appointment, we will ask you about your current health, whether you are taking any medications or supplements, and whether you are allergic to anything. Based on this information, we can customize your ClearLift treatment so that it is safe for your skin type and results in optimal results with minimal side effects.
Common FAQs
Is the treatment painful?
A Clearlift treatment is not painful; it’s very gentle yet effective. As the laser is applied and the skin is treated, some slight snapping may occur.

Are the results permanent?
ClearLift Q-switched technology is considered the “Magic Wand” for laser technicians. The patient is no longer required to seek further treatment once the desired results are achieved.
How many treatments will I need?
No one tattoo is the same as another. In addition to the patient’s immune system, the age of the tattoo, the colors used, and the chemical composition of the ink used by the tattoo artist will influence the number of treatments needed. It is generally recommended to have six to eight sessions eight to ten weeks apart to erase unwanted tattoos.
How long will the treatment take?
Treatments with Clearlift usually take less than 30 minutes per area. The treatment regimen depends on your consultation and target area(s).
What aftercare should I follow after laser tattoo removal?
It will help if you avoid sun exposure for at least four weeks after laser tattoo removal. UV rays can cause unnecessary sun damage and hinder the results of just-treated skin. You may experience slight discomfort, swelling, and even redness after your session, which is normal. You’ll also need to keep the skin moisturized with an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment as it heals. Make sure you don’t pick the scab, as this may lead to scarring. Until the treated area is completely healed, you should avoid shaving.
