PRE-APPOINTMENT INFO

To ensure the success of your tattoo removal session, and a smooth, safe experience for both yourself and the technician, please consider the following guidelines. We will always prioritise your well being for the best results, so let's work together to make your session a comfortable and successful experience. If any concerns apply to you, don't hesitate to speak to us.

Pre-Booking General information Check Sheet

• For larger tattoos exceeding 15cm by 15cm, plan your appointment on a day off or after work for a comfortable recovery if possible

Preparation with Aftercare Products

• Gather the essential aftercare items like a quality, organic aloe vera gel, an ice pack, ibuprofen to reduce swelling ( not always experienced, but just in case) and other recommended products to aid in a smoother recovery.

Skin Care Regimen

• Moisturise and exfoliate the tattooed area at least a week before the session to enhance the treatment's effectiveness. (Optional) this does really help BTW

Product Bring-Along

• Consult with us about using a numbing cream, especially for sensitive areas or tattoos. We recommend effective brands like EMLAR and our powerful in-store product, NumbUp. You can pick it up in-store or have it mailed to you before the appointment. 

Benefits of Numbing Cream

Numbing cream, when applied correctly, significantly reduces discomfort, ensuring a more comfortable experience during the session. This allows our technicians to focus on providing a thorough and effective treatment without feeling rushed. We have a cringey saying 'if in doubt, don’t be a hero'. We always use numbing cream for tattoos and removals, it’s pretty common practise these days. Here’s a YouTube video of proper application of the prep.

​

Communication

• Discuss any concerns or uncertainties with our technician to receive personalised advice and guidance tailored to your situation.

Hydration

• Stay well-hydrated in the days leading up to the appointment to promote optimal skin health.

Avoid Sun Exposure

• Minimise sun exposure to the tattooed area before the session to prevent potential complications. You can use a quality sun block or zinc cream and place it around the tattoo to be treated. 

Understanding the Process

• Familiarise yourself with the laser tattoo removal process, including potential side effects and your realistic expectations .You can check out our FAQS page.

Postpone During Illness

• If you are feeling unwell or have an active skin infection, consider postponing the appointment for another time. The more notice you can give us, the better

Follow Aftercare Instructions

• Please implement the provided aftercare instructions diligently to support proper healing and maximise the results of laser tattoo removal.
