The Cutera Enlighten uses three different laser light wavelengths to target and break down the ink that’s present in the dermis. Once the laser fragments the ink, the particles are small enough for the white blood cells to them carry away.

Both amateur and professional tattoos can be removed but professional body art may require more treatments to achieve your desired result.

Where laser technology was once only able to effectively remove a few different colours, the Cutera Enlighten can be used to target all colours at varying depths.

The Cutera Enlighten, which uses picotechnology, and nonsecond technology to safely delivers three laser light wavelengths (532, 670 and 1064) to target all tattoo colours and depths. Pico and nono second technology has the ability to halve the number of tattoo removal treatments that you would normally require. It also reduces scarring and provides a safer, more comfortable tattoo removal experience overall.

Yes Tattoo removal can be uncomfortable, at sun and skin medical centre we can offer you local anaesthetic administered from one of our friendly doctors to keep the laser session as comfortable as possible.

There are a number of different factors that determine how long it will take to completely remove your unwanted tattoo, including:

• The type of ink
• The colours that were used
• Layering of tattoos
• Ink depth

On average, you will require at least 8 – 10 treatments to completely remove your tattoo. However, your tattoo will start to fade after just a few sessions.

At sun and skin it is recommended that you come for a complimentary consultation to discuss price point package bundle to suit your needs.
