Laser Tattoo Removal in Edmonton

Pain is subjective, but it’s safe to say that laser tattoo removal isn’t a spa treatment. That said, most clients describe the sensation as a quick snap, similar to a rubber band against the skin. Some areas, like the ribs or ankles, may be more sensitive, while fleshier areas tend to be more tolerable.

At Serene Radiance, we use advanced cooling technology and offer numbing options to keep discomfort minimal. Each session is quick, typically lasting only a few minutes depending on tattoo size. Plus, the sensation fades almost immediately after the treatment ends. If you’ve handled getting a tattoo in the first place, chances are, you can handle removing it too. And unlike getting inked, laser removal sessions take a fraction of the time.

Pricing varies based on factors like tattoo size, ink density, and colour complexity. Since multiple sessions are required for full removal, we often offer package pricing for cost-effective treatment plans. During your consultation, Dr. Moussa will assess your tattoo and provide a personalized quote.

Keep in mind, cheap treatments can mean outdated lasers or inexperienced providers, both of which can lead to poor results or even scarring. Investing in a skilled provider and the right technology means faster fading, fewer sessions, and ultimately, a better outcome for your skin.

When performed by trained professionals using the right technology, laser tattoo removal is extremely safe. At Serene Radiance, we use state-of-the-art laser systems designed specifically for tattoo removal, ensuring precise targeting of ink without damaging surrounding skin.

Unlike outdated methods, lasers selectively break down tattoo pigment while keeping your skin intact. Dr. Moussa oversees most treatments, ensuring the highest level of safety and effectiveness.

As with any procedure, proper aftercare is crucial to prevent infection, minimize irritation, and promote smooth healing. We provide personalized recovery guidelines so you get the best results with zero guesswork.

Laser tattoo removal itself does not cause scarring, but improper aftercare or pre-existing tattoo scarring can impact the outcome. The lasers we use at Serene Radiance in Edmonton target only pigment particles, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. However, if your original tattoo caused scarring, that texture may remain after the ink fades.

The key to a scar-free experience is following post-treatment care to the letter. Avoid picking at scabs, scratching the area, or excessive sun exposure, as these can lead to hyperpigmentation or delayed healing. With our advanced technology and expert approach, most clients heal beautifully, leaving only clear, healthy skin behind.

At Serene Radiance, we use advanced PicoWay® laser tattoo removal, known for its fast, effective, and skin-safe results. Unlike older lasers that rely on heat, PicoWay® uses ultra-fast picosecond pulses to break down ink into smaller particles, allowing your body to flush them out more efficiently. This means fewer sessions, better results on stubborn colours, and a lower risk of skin irritation.

Whether you’re looking for full removal or a lightening for a cover-up, our cutting-edge technology ensures optimal fading with minimal discomfort.

The best laser depends on your tattoo’s colour, depth, and skin type. At Serene Radiance, we use cutting-edge laser technology, including PicoWay®, to provide precise ink removal without damaging your skin.

PicoWay® laser tattoo removal delivers ultra-short picosecond pulses to shatter ink into tiny particles. This advanced approach removes tattoos faster, requires fewer sessions, and is effective on even the toughest ink colours. Whether you're dealing with deep blacks or stubborn greens and blues, our multi-wavelength system ensures the best possible results with minimal discomfort.

Laser tattoo removal is a process, not an instant fix. After each session, your body works to flush out the shattered ink particles, which takes time. Most clients notice fading within a few weeks, with continued improvement over several months. Full removal usually requires 6-10 sessions, spaced 6-8 weeks apart.

Patience is key, and the reward is clear skin without scarring or harsh chemical treatments. To speed up the fading process, we recommend staying hydrated, keeping your immune system strong, and avoiding smoking, as these factors impact how efficiently your body clears the ink.

Not all ink fades at the same rate, but modern laser technology can target nearly every colour. Black and dark blue ink respond the fastest since they absorb all laser wavelengths. Brighter colours, like greens, blues, and yellows, require specialized wavelengths for effective removal.

At Serene Radiance, we use multi-wavelength laser systems to treat a full spectrum of ink shades, ensuring even the most stubborn colours fade efficiently. While some colours may take more sessions, we personalize your treatment plan to maximize fading while keeping your skin’s health a priority.

Yes! Selective tattoo removal is possible and a great option for modifications, name removals, or cover-ups. Whether you want to erase a specific section or lighten an area for a cleaner rework, our lasers allow for precise targeting.

We adjust settings to fade unwanted portions while leaving surrounding ink intact. This approach is ideal for artists needing a clearer canvas or those looking to refine an existing tattoo without starting from scratch. During your consultation, we will discuss your goals and create a customized plan to remove only what you no longer want.

If you’re lightening a tattoo for a cover-up, patience is essential. Your skin needs time to fully heal and regenerate before new ink is introduced. Typically, we recommend waiting at least 6-8 weeks after your final laser session before getting re-inked. This ensures your skin is in its best condition, preventing complications like uneven absorption, blowouts, or excess irritation.

If you’re working with a tattoo artist, we can help determine when your skin is ready for fresh ink, so your new tattoo looks its absolute best.
