Works at: where the ink sits, about 1 to 2 mm

Tattoo removal is mentioned in 6 Google reviews. Tattoo ink sits in the dermis, below the surface, and laser light breaks it into smaller particles that the body clears away over the weeks between sessions. How many sessions a tattoo needs depends on its size, colours and age, and on your skin; you are told what to expect at your consultation, before anything starts.
