This advanced technology delivers powerful, ultra-short pulses of light that break tattoo ink into microscopic fragments, allowing the body to naturally clear them over time. * * * ## The Technology: Lynton Q-Switched Laser - **Q-Switched pulses** – High-powered, short bursts of light specifically target tattoo ink. - **Ink absorption** – The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment, shattering it into tiny fragments. - **Immune response** – Your body gradually removes these particles, causing the tattoo to fade. - **Flat-top square beam** – Provides even power distribution, improving results and reducing risk of skin texture changes. ## The Treatment Process 1. **Consultation** – A specialist assesses your tattoo, skin type, and medical history to confirm suitability and plan treatment. 2. **Preparation** – The area is cleaned, and protective eyewear is provided. 3. **Laser application** – The laser applicator is passed over the 8" square tattoo, releasing rapid pulses of light. 4. **Sensation** – Clients often describe the treatment as feeling like a hot pinprick or elastic band flick. Cooling devices may be used for comfort. 5. **Immediate results** – The treated area may show instant whitening, which fades quickly. * * * ## Aftercare and Recovery - **Immediate effects** – Redness, swelling, and tenderness are common, similar to mild sunburn. - **Healing** – The skin usually calms within a few days to a week. Small blisters may occasionally form and should be kept clean with soothing aloe vera gel. - **Long-term fading** – Ink continues to break down and fade for weeks after each session. * * * ## Factors Influencing Treatment - **Number of sessions** – Several treatments are required, depending on tattoo age, colour, and density. - **Treatment interval** – Sessions are generally scheduled every 8-12 weeks. - **Tattoo variables** – Professional tattoos, coloured inks, and densely pigmented areas may require more sessions. * * * ## Why Choose Face Facts Buxton? - Safe, effective removal using **medical-grade Lynton lasers**. - Experienced practitioners with expert knowledge of skin safety. - Personalised treatment plans tailored to your tattoo and goals. * * * ## Book Your Tattoo Removal Today Take the first step towards clearer skin with an **8" square tattoo removal treatment at Face Facts Buxton**.
