Erase unwanted ink & start fresh

Tattoo Removal

The Lumenis® treatments enable your physician to remove black, blue and other dark tattoos, either amateur or professional. The Lumenis® Q-Switch technology enables tailoring of the treatment according to the type of the tattoo, to effectively target the dark pigment and destroy it. Ultrashort laser pulses target the tattoo ink in the skin and break it into small particles that are naturally dissolved by your body; the surrounding skin is left intact.

  • Non-invasive laser based treatment
  • Gradually and gently reveals your skin
  • Noticeable results with minimal downtime
  • Erase unwanted ink for a new start

Tattoo Removal Technology

How does it work?

The laser nano-second pulses, shutter the tattoo ink into very small particles, which our bodies can dispense of. Since there is a photo-acustic effect, you can hear popping sounds of the ink particles bursting during treatment. This effect is very selective to the ink, and will not harm the surrounding skin.

The treatment

Before treatment, the doctor should apply a local anesthetic to the treatment area. During treatment, your physician will treat the tattoo by applying ultrashort laser pulses on the tattoo area. The treatment will take between 15-45 minutes, depending on the size of the tattoo being treated. During the treatment you will feel heat on the tattoo area, and may experience a feeling similar to a band aid being ripped off.

During & After Treatment

What to expect in treatment?

A change in the color intensity of the tattoo may be visible immediately after the first treatment. The number of needed treatments depends on the area of the body, skin color, and the tattoo itself, and can start from 2-3 treatments and up to 10 in some cases. Treatments are typically spaced 6-10 weeks apart. Immediately following treatment, you will see whitish bubbles on the treated tattoo area, accompanied by some mild redness and swelling which will resolve within 24 hours. A thick crust will appear over the treated area and will fall in about 2 weeks. In rare cases, minimal bleeding in the treated area can occur. Fading of the tattoo is gradual and will be noticed in the following weeks.

FAQs

What areas can be treated in SculpSure?
SculpSure is a non-invasive treatment for the reduction of stubborn fat. Each 25 minute treatment can destroy up to 24% of treated fat cells without surgery. SculpSure treatments can be performed on the belly, love handles, back, thighs, and under the chin.
Are SculpSure treatments right for me?
SculpSure treatments are ideal for people with trouble spots, particularly those that seem resistant to diet and exercise.
How many treatments will I need?
Every patient is different. Most people see the best results when they receive a series of treatments. Ask your SculpSure provider about the treatment plan that is right for you.
What should I expect during the treatment?
Most patients feel deep warmth and tingling sensations intermittently throughout the treatment, which is generally well-tolerated.
When will I see results?
Patients may start to see results as early as 6 weeks following treatment as the body begins to eliminate the destroyed fat cells, with optimal results usually seen at 12 weeks.
How long will results last?
Treated fat cells are eliminated during a treatment and will not regenerate. SculpSure treatments are an excellent complement to a healthy lifestyle. Optimal benefits are best achieved in combination with diet and exercise.
How long before I can resume normal activities?
With a SculpSure treatment, there is absolutely no downtime which allows you to resume your daily activities right away. Make it back to work for that post-lunch meeting, never miss a yoga class, hit the slopes or head to the beach. Nothing’s stopping you!
What is the difference between fat loss and weight loss?
The number of fat cells stored in our bodies typically remains constant throughout adult life. As we lose weight, the size of fat cells become smaller, but do not decrease in number. Even with diet and exercise, many people have difficulty losing weight in these trouble areas. After the SculpSure treatment, the fat cells are permanently destroyed2 and will not return.
