Unwanted Tattoos
Laser tattoo removal at MedSkincare Laser Centre in Whitby, Ontario helps patients fade or remove unwanted ink using physician-led Q-switch laser technology. Whether you are looking to remove a tattoo completely or fade one ahead of a cover-up, removal is a gradual process that works over a series of sessions. Our team sets clear expectations about timeline and results so you know what to anticipate before you begin.
How Laser Tattoo Removal Works
Laser tattoo removal works by delivering rapid, high-energy pulses that break ink particles into smaller fragments, which the body then clears naturally over time. Because ink is removed gradually, multiple sessions spaced weeks apart are needed. Factors such as ink colour, depth, age of the tattoo, and your skin all influence how many sessions are required, which your provider reviews at your consultation.
The Technology We Use
Q-Switch Laser
The Q-switch laser is an established technology for tattoo removal, delivering high-energy pulses that target tattoo pigment specifically. Different ink colours respond differently, and your provider will assess your tattoo to estimate how it is likely to respond. Treatment is spaced to allow your body time to clear fragmented ink between sessions.
