Tattoo removal

Specifically, the price for tattoo removal starts from €95 per session.

The cost of tattoo removal depends on the size, color and location of your tattoo. During your free consultation we will discuss a personal plan and corresponding price. So you know immediately where you stand.

The complete removal of a tattoo with laser therapy is possible in many cases, but the result depends on several factors. Elements such as the colors of the tattoo, the ink types used, the depth of the ink in the skin, the size of the tattoo and the location on the body all play a role. Dark colors, such as black and dark blue, generally respond better to laser treatments than lighter colors such as yellow and green.

At Bodyclear, advanced laser equipment is used to remove tattoos effectively and safely. Multiple sessions are often required to completely remove the tattoo. During a free consultation, a thorough analysis of your skin and tattoo is performed to create a personalized treatment plan.

It is important to note that the number of treatments required and the effectiveness of removal vary from individual to individual. Factors such as skin type, the age of the tattoo and the ink types used affect the process. A consultation with a specialized clinic such as Bodyclear can give you insight into the feasibility and expected outcome of treatment.

The treatment utilizes advanced laser technology, with powerful pulses of light breaking down the ink into smaller particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body. To ensure maximum comfort, we provide pain management and clear post-treatment instructions.

Depending on the tattoo, several sessions are required to achieve the desired results. Thanks to modern equipment and expertise, Bodyclear offers a safe and effective tattoo removal solution.

This varies per tattoo, but on average a tattoo is completely removed in 8 sessions. During the free consultation we will give you an exact indication and a personal treatment plan.

With each session, the ink in your tattoo will gradually fade away, until the tattoo eventually disappears completely. The speed of the entire process depends on several factors, including the amount of ink used, your skin type, the colors of the tattoo, the quality of the ink and the depth of the tattoo.

It is important to note that your body’s response to tattoo laser treatment may differ from others. Therefore, you may need slightly more or fewer treatments than someone else to achieve the desired end result.

At Bodyclear, we understand that each individual is unique, which is why we will work with you to create a treatment plan specific to your tattoo and skin type. Our expert team will guide and advise you to ensure that you get the best results from your tattoo removal.

Compared to getting a tattoo, tattoo removal is generally perceived as slightly more uncomfortable. Many people describe it as a tingling or stinging sensation on the skin. It may feel more intense than getting a tattoo, but the good news is that the procedure is quick.

At Bodyclear, we understand that comfort during treatment is important. That’s why we offer skin cooling to minimize discomfort. Our dedicated team will do everything possible to make your Bodyclear experience as comfortable as possible, so you can begin your tattoo removal with confidence.

Disclaimer: Pain experience is a very subjective feeling and varies from person to person. It is difficult to give an unequivocal answer to this question because perceptions of pain vary widely.

Intake interview

The treatment process begins with a comprehensive and personalized intake session. During this session we discuss:

• Your needs and expectations: What is your goal with the tattoo removal? Is it about complete removal or lightening for a cover-up
• Analysis of your tattoo: We carefully assess the size, the colors used, the depth of the ink and the age of the tattoo. These factors determine the number of sessions required, the final cost and effectiveness.
• Skin Analysis: Our specialist analyzes your skin type to determine the most appropriate laser settings and rule out any contraindications.
• Explaining the process: We explain the laser technology, how it works on the ink particles and what to expect during and after the treatment.
• Customized treatment plan: Based on the analysis, we prepare a personalized treatment plan, including an estimate of the number of sessions needed and the associated costs.
• Answering questions: This is the time to ask all your questions. We will make sure you are fully informed and comfortable before we proceed.

Preparing to remove the tattoo

Prior to any laser session, proper preparation is essential for your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment:

• Sun avoidance: Protect the area to be treated from direct sunlight at least 4-6 weeks before the session and do not use self-tanners. Sun-tanned skin can cause pigmentation disruption.
• Skin clean: On the day of treatment, make sure the skin is clean, free of makeup, lotions or creams.
• No blood thinners: Consult with your specialist or physician about stopping blood-thinning medication (if medically justified) prior to the session to minimize bruising.

The laser treatment itself

The actual laser treatment is a relatively quick procedure:

• Protection: You will be given special glasses to protect your eyes from the laser light.
• Cooling: To maximize comfort and protect the skin, the treatment area is cooled, often with a special chiller or ice packs.
• Laser application: Our specialist aims the laser at the tattoo. The laser emits short, powerful pulses of light that break down the ink particles into tiny fragments.
• Feeling: The sensation during treatment is often described as rubber bands shooting against the skin or quick, sharp pricks. Most people tolerate the treatment well, but the intensity can vary by person and body part.
• Immediate response: Immediately after the laser pulse, the tattoo will turn white (“frosting”), which lasts for several minutes. There may also be some redness and swelling, similar to sunburn.

Multiple laser treatments

Step 5: Multiple Sessions Needed

Tattoo ink is located in several layers of skin and the body needs time to dispose of the broken-down ink particles:

• Interval: Between each session there is a recovery period that averages 6 to 8 weeks. This gives your body time to drain the ink and allow the skin to fully recover.
• Number of sessions: The exact number of sessions varies greatly by tattoo and person, depending on factors such as the age of the tattoo, the colors used, the ink type, the depth of the ink, the location on the body and your immune system. On average, 6 to 12 sessions are required for complete removal.

Gradual fading: You will notice that the tattoo gradually lightens after each session.

Aftercare tattoo removal

Aftercare is crucial for optimal recovery and results:

• Cooling and protection: After the session, the treated area is again cooled and covered with a sterile bandage to protect the skin.
• Home Care: You will receive detailed instructions for follow-up care at home, including:
  • Keeping the area clean and dry.
  • Cool regularly to reduce swelling.
  • Applying a restorative ointment as advised.
  • Sun avoidance is essential; always use a high SPF (factor 50) on the treated area, even if it is cloudy.
• What to expect: Blistering, crusting, slight swelling and itching may occur in the days following treatment. This is a normal reaction of the body and part of the healing process. Do not scratch scabs or blisters to prevent scarring.
