Updated: 27.10.2026.<\/p>\n<\/div> In short<\/p>\n<\/div> Laser tattoo removal is considered the gold standard and the safest method to permanently fade tattoos. With the use of the advanced ClearLift Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser, we can effectively remove multicolored tattoos while preserving the integrity of the surrounding skin. In just a few treatment sessions, the tattoo can be permanently eliminated!<\/p>\n<\/div> Did you get a tattoo 15 or 20 years ago and now you’re tired of it? Perhaps you have a tattoo of your ex-boyfriend’s name that you’d rather forget? Or maybe you simply feel that the tattoo no longer suits you and you’re considering how to remove it permanently? In that case, laser tattoo removal is the only proven and effective solution. If you’re wondering what this procedure entails, we will provide a detailed explanation. Tattooing is a procedure in which pigment of a specific texture is inserted into the skin using a needle. The depth of insertion can vary, typically ranging from 1-1.5 mm and occasionally reaching up to 2 mm deep into the dermis. The pigment is deposited as the needle rapidly moves up and down, penetrating the skin and leaving behind color. \u201cAn honest assessment before starting is better than a series of treatments with an unclear outcome.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div> DOCTOR’S ADVICE \u00b7 DR MILO\u0160 \u017dIVKOVI\u0106<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Successful removal of tattoos, particularly those with darker pigments, requires the use of a laser that possesses sufficient energy to target particles across a wide spectrum of colors. The ClearLift Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser, featured in the Alma Harmony XL PRO<\/a> laser platform, is capable of delivering this power. Unlike other lasers in its category, this laser emits wavelengths that effectively target<\/a> and remove darker ink colors such as black, blue, or green. Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser treatments offer the following advantages:<\/p>\n ClearLift laser utilizes the powerful Q-switched Nd:YAG technology, operating at a wavelength of 1064nm, to effectively target and remove darker colors from the skin. It also incorporates a module that emits a wavelength of 532nm, which specifically absorbs brighter shades of color. The mechanical Q-switched effect of the laser is achieved through vibrations that break down the ink pigment into smaller particles. As the skin heals and recovers, the immune system’s cells gradually eliminate the pigment, resulting in the gradual fading of the tattoo. All individuals seeking permanent tattoo removal on their face or body are ideal candidates for ClearLift laser treatment. Following an examination by our doctors, we will determine the tattoo removal protocol, including the number of required treatments and their intervals. We will also take photos of the tattoo to track the progress of the treatment. Laser tattoo removal is contraindicated during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in individuals with malignant diseases, epilepsy, or skin infections. Candidates for the procedure also exclude patients with vitiligo, active herpes, and those currently undergoing therapy with photosensitizing drugs.<\/p>\n<\/div> The treatment begins with cleaning the area to be treated. To ensure a painless and comfortable experience, we apply an anesthetic cream to the skin. Once the skin is numb, we use the laser to target the tattoo at a specific depth within the dermis. Patients may experience mild discomfort and a burning sensation during the treatment. After the treatment, the skin may experience slight swelling and redness, but these side effects typically subside within two or three days. The skin then begins its recovery and healing process, aided by the immune system’s breakdown of the tattoo pigment. As a result, the tattoo gradually fades, becoming less visible with each subsequent treatment. Absolutely. ClearLift laser tattoo removal is currently considered the leading method worldwide. It allows for the permanent removal of tattoos from the body without the need for surgical incisions or associated side effects. All protocols within the Harmony XL Pro platform are safe and FDA approved. ClearLift is a powerful and highly effective solution for achieving permanent tattoo removal.<\/p>\n Apart from a slight burning sensation, which patients tolerate well, there are no other discomforts. We apply an anesthetic cream, which makes the treatment pleasant and comfortable.<\/p>\n One treatment is never enough because tattoo removal is a process that requires a certain amount of time. You will notice the first results after the initial treatment, but it is necessary to repeat the treatments until the tattoo has completely faded. The number of treatments will depend on the size of the tattoo, the intensity of the color, whether it is monochromatic or multicolored, and how long the tattoo has been on the skin. Older tattoos are easier to remove because the pigment slowly begins to disappear on its own over the years. Treatments are repeated at intervals of 2 months.<\/p>\n<\/div> If you are not among those who want to remove a tattoo but, on the contrary, are thinking of getting a tattoo, it is important to be careful. A tattoo is a permanent mark on your body, so think carefully if it’s something you really want to avoid regrets later. Additionally, it is important to keep the following in mind:<\/p>\n Once you have carefully considered all of these factors and are absolutely sure that you want to get a tattoo, go ahead with your decision.<\/p>\n<\/div> You can view the prices of all our services on the Pricelist<\/u><\/a> page.

What is laser tattoo removal?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
\nThe tattoo you got on your young and firm skin at the age of 20 may have looked beautiful and appealing. However, as the years go by, the skin becomes looser, wrinkled, and less elastic, causing the tattoo to lose its original shape and color. There are various methods available for removing such tattoos from the skin, including ultrasound tattoo removal, radiowave tattoo removal, abrasive tattoo removal, and surgical tattoo removal. However, the gold standard in this field is undoubtedly laser tattoo removal. It is the safest, least painful, and most reliable way to completely remove the tattoo ink from the skin and achieve permanent fading.<\/p>\nWHAT DOES TATTOOING MEAN?<\/h3>\n
\nBefore getting a tattoo, it is crucial to understand that tattoos are permanent and will remain on the skin indefinitely. When we observe a tattoo, what we see is the color that is now present in our skin as a result of the tattooing process. This color is not on the surface of the skin (epidermis) but rather in the outermost layer of the dermis, visible on the skin’s surface. Tattoos can vary in size, shape, and color, ranging from single-colored to multi-colored and from lighter to darker shades.
\nLaser tattoo removal works by targeting the color pigments in the dermis, breaking down the ink into minuscule particles, and causing the tattoo to fade gradually. This method is effective for removing both multi-colored and dark tattoos, whether they are amateur or professionally done. The number of required treatments will depend on the size and color intensity of the tattoo itself.<\/p>\n<\/div>Which laser do we use for tattoo removal?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>

How does the ClearLift laser remove a tattoo?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
\nClearLift Q-Switched Nd:YAG is a non-ablative laser<\/a>, meaning it penetrates the skin without damaging its surface, ensuring that the surrounding tissue remains unharmed. This allows for year-round treatments. Additionally, the ClearLift laser has rejuvenating<\/a> properties, addressing issues such as photodamage<\/a>, sagging skin, and fine lines on the face, neck<\/a>, and d\u00e9collet\u00e9. For further details about the ClearLift laser, please refer to this resource<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>Who is a good candidate?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
\nA study was conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the ClearLift laser, involving 25 patients from Ethiopia. These patients had a total of 45 amateur face and neck tattoos containing carbon-based ink (black and blue). It is worth mentioning that professional tattoos are generally easier to remove since the color is applied evenly and to a consistent depth. The results achieved with the ClearLift laser are remarkable: before and after photos taken following a series of treatments demonstrate that this laser effectively eliminated the pigment, leaving no trace of the tattoo.<\/p>\n<\/div>Contraindications<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
Laser tattoo removal – treatment?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
\nThe fractional laser beam is then directed into the skin, reaching the desired depth. This process creates micro-injuries that stimulate skin renewal and the synthesis of collagen and elastin. While removing the tattoo, we simultaneously promote skin regeneration. Through the photoacoustic effect, the ClearLift Q-Switched laser breaks down the tattoo pigment, gradually fading and eventually eliminating the tattoo. The duration of a single treatment varies depending on the color and size of the tattoo, typically lasting between 10 to 40 minutes.<\/p>\nSkin recovery after laser tattoo removal<\/h3>\n
\nTo promote effective skin healing, it is crucial to follow the instructions provided by your doctor. Applying an antibacterial ointment to the treated area is recommended, and it is important to use a cream with a high level of sun protection.<\/p>\nIs laser tatto removal safe?<\/h3>\n
