Tattoo Removal with the Q-Switch and how it works

At Laser and Skin Esthetics of Canada inc., we offer advanced tattoo removal using Q-Switch technology, providing a safe and effective solution for unwanted tattoos. The Q-Switch laser emits high-energy pulses of light that target tattoo pigments beneath the skin. The laser shatters the ink particles into tiny fragments, which are gradually removed by your body’s natural processes. This method is non-invasive and specifically targets unwanted tattoos without damaging the surrounding skin. Whether you’re looking to fade a tattoo for a cover-up or completely remove it, our cutting-edge technology offers exceptional results for clients in Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, and Courtice.

Why Q-Switch Technology Outperforms Other Laser Technologies for Tattoo Removal

Q-Switch Technology

Proven Long-Term Effectiveness1

Q-Switch lasers have been used for tattoo removal for decades and are well-established as highly effective for removing a wide variety of ink colors, especially darker pigments like black and dark blue.

Better for Larger, Older Tattoos2

Q-Switch lasers are more effective on older tattoos that may be deeply embedded in the skin. They are also ideal for treating larger tattoos, as the high-energy pulses can penetrate deeper into the skin layers to break down stubborn ink.

Versatility with Multicolored Tattoos3

Q-Switch lasers are known to work more effectively on a wider range of ink colors, especially difficult hues like red, yellow, dark blue, orange, purple and black.

Safer for All Skin Types4

Q-Switch technology is safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones.

Highly Focused Energy5

Q-Switch lasers deliver very short bursts of highly focused energy (in nanoseconds), effectively breaking down tattoo ink particles with less risk of collateral skin damage. Other lasers on the market use picosecond technology, which can be less effective for deeply embedded or large ink particles.

How it Works

How Q-Switch Technology Works

Laser Energy Emission1

The Q-Switch laser emits short, high-intensity pulses of light that are specifically targeted at the tattoo ink beneath your skin.

Ink Absorption2

The tattoo ink absorbs the laser light, and the energy from the laser is converted into heat.

Ink Fragmentation3

The heat causes the tattoo ink particles to break down into smaller fragments without damaging the surrounding skin.

Body’s Natural Process4

Once the ink is fragmented, your body’s immune system begins to clear away the tiny ink particles over time.

Multiple Sessions 5

The process is repeated over several sessions, with the ink gradually fading as more particles are broken down and removed by your body.

Benefits of The Q-Switch Tattoo Removal

Benefits of Q-Switch Technology

Effective on All Skin Types1

Q-Switch technology is safe and effective for a wide range of skin tones and types.

Works on Multicolored Tattoos2

This laser can target multiple ink colors, including difficult shades like red and blue.

Precise Targeting3

The laser precisely focuses on the tattoo ink without affecting the surrounding skin, minimizing damage.

Minimal Discomfort4

The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with only mild discomfort reported by most clients.

Minimal Downtime5

There’s little to no recovery time required after each session, allowing you to quickly resume daily activities.

Gradual, Natural Fading6

As your body naturally absorbs and eliminates the fragmented ink particles, the tattoo fades gradually, giving natural-looking results.

Safe and Non-Invasive7

The laser treatment is non-invasive, reducing the risk of complications compared to other removal methods.

Who Tattoo Removal is For

Removing regretful tattoos

Individuals with Unwanted Tattoos1

Tattoo removal is perfect for those who regret their tattoo choices or no longer resonate with the design.

People Seeking a Cover-Up Tattoo2

If you're planning to replace your current tattoo with a new design, fading or removing the old tattoo through laser treatment can provide a clean canvas.

Professionals Seeking a More Polished Appearance3

Some individuals may want to remove tattoos for professional or career reasons, especially in industries where visible tattoos are less accepted.

Anyone Experiencing Tattoo Fading4

Over time, tattoos can naturally fade or blur. Tattoo removal can help those looking to eliminate these faded designs entirely.

Individuals with Allergic Reactions to Tattoo Ink5

If someone experiences an allergic reaction to the tattoo ink, laser removal offers a solution to eliminate the problematic ink safely.

People Seeking to Change Their Image6

Tattoo removal can help individuals who want to update their personal style, appearance, or image by getting rid of old tattoos.

Laser tattoo removal, especially with Q-Switch technology, is a safe, non-invasive option for those who prefer a modern method over older techniques.
