“You can’t remove coloured tattoos”

Most lasers can’t but at NAAMA we can thanks to our advanced LightSense laser system. We’re particularly good at removing red, blue and greens. In fact, we have the only tattoo removal laser system with an 800nm laser, and this wavelength is superior at targeting coloured inks. However, the client’s skin tone is a factor and we will advise on this during your initial consultation.

“All lasers are the same”

Lasers are used for all sorts of cosmetic treatments from correcting vision to removing body hair. They’re all different with varying light wavelengths, techniques and compounds. For laser tattoo removal, the best lasers use high intensity pulses combined with low levels of energy that is gentle on skin. Pulsing up to 1,000 times a second, NAAMA’s exclusive LightSense lasers operate at a rate that is 100 times faster than PicoSure and Picoway. Pairing exceptional speed with ultra-low levels of energy is one of the reasons why treatment with NAAMA is relatively painless versus other, older technologies.

“Lasers burn off layers of skin to get to the ink”

Thankfully this isn’t the case. The LightSense laser system allows light to travel directly to the dermis, the layer of skin that lies beneath the epidermis, where the ink sits. The light breaks up the ink particles, which the immune system can then process out of the body, leaving your skin unharmed.
