Frequently asked questions

How much does tattoo removal hurt?

It's not too bad. Although, of course, removing a tattoo, permanent make-up or radiation spots is not painless. Yet we hear from many of our clients who have their tattoo removal in Delft, that the pain is not too bad. They describe the feeling of the laser flashes on the skin as "a rubber band shooting equally hard against the skin".

For what kind of tattoos does tattoo lasering work?

Tattoo removal. Permanent make-up removal. Removing radiation spots. This is all possible with the modern M22 Q-Switched Nd:Yag 1064 nm laser from Huid & Laser Kliniek Delft. The laser works very well on dark blue and black ink, which is not set too deep. Colored tattoos are unfortunately difficult to laser. In a free consultation we look at the possibilities for your skin and tattoo.

How long does it take to recover after a laser treatment?

After tattoo lasering, white discoloration will be visible on your skin, which will disappear on its own after about 30 minutes. Your skin may also be somewhat swollen, red or sensitive for a few hours or a few days. Itching and peeling is also quite normal. In total, the healing process after a session takes about 10 to 20 days. Your body then takes about 8 to 12 weeks to break down and dispose of the ink.

What are the side effects of a tattoo laser treatment?

The chances of major side effects are very low with tattoo removal. The technique has evolved tremendously over the years. Possible side effects are limited to temporarily irritated skin and sometimes the wound remains a bit moist, with a chance of inflammation. Because we work with heat, there is also a chance of blister formation. Never puncture blisters, otherwise scarring may occur.

Can you laser a tattoo with a sun tanned skin or a dark skin type?

No. Therefore, in a consultation we always look at the status and color of your skin first. Then we give advice on how to remove your tattoo. If you laser a tattoo on a sun tanned skin, there is a chance that the laser will break down your own skin pigment. This is also a risk with darker skin types. For questions about your skin, please contact us.
