Laser Tattoo Removal

Tattoos can be a meaningful form of self-expression, but sometimes they no longer reflect who you are. Whether you're seeking complete removal or fading for a cover-up, our advanced laser technology offers a safe and effective solution.

At KGA, we use the Cutera Enlighten™ laser system, which combines dual wavelengths and ultra-short pulse durations to target a wide range of ink colors and depths. This technology allows for efficient breakdown of ink particles, facilitating their natural elimination by the body.

Pre & Post Treatment Care

Avoid sun exposure and tanning products for at least 2 weeks prior. Refrain from using active skincare ingredients (e.g., retinol, AHAs, BHAs) on the treatment area for 3 to 5 days before your session. Ensure the treatment area is clean and free of lotions or makeup on the day of your appointment.

You may experience redness, swelling, or blistering in the treated area; this is normal and typically subsides within a week. Keep the area clean and dry; avoid picking at scabs or blisters to prevent scarring. Apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer as recommended by your practitioner. Protect the area from sun exposure by using a high-SPF sunscreen daily. Avoid strenuous exercise, hot tubs, and saunas for 48 hours post-treatment.
