Laser Tattoo Removal in Chennai
Advanced Q-switched laser tattoo removal for multi-colour ink — at Halos Aminjikarai.
Overview
Safe, effective tattoo removal
Tattoos are meaningful — until they aren’t. Whether it’s an old design, a name you’d rather forget, or a professional need, HALOS in Aminjikarai, Chennai offers safe laser tattoo removal using advanced Q-switched Nd:YAG technology.
Modern lasers fragment the ink into tiny particles that the body clears naturally over weeks. It works on most colours and skin tones — gradually, safely, without damaging surrounding skin.
- Q-switched Nd:YAG laser technology
- Effective on black, red, blue and multi-colour ink
- Safe for Indian skin tones
- Minimal skin damage or scarring
- Dermatologist-supervised sessions
- Gradual, clean removal without harsh methods
How laser tattoo removal works
Ultra-short laser pulses target ink pigment, breaking it into microscopic particles. Your body’s immune system clears these particles over 4–6 weeks between sessions.
- Precise wavelength for each ink colour
- Ink shattered into microscopic fragments
- Body clears the ink between sessions
- Surrounding skin protected
- Cooling used for comfort
- Multiple sessions build progressive fading
What to expect during a session
Sessions are short and dermatologist-supervised. You’ll feel a rubber-band snap sensation and see immediate lightening or frosting of the tattoo.
- Cleansing and numbing of the area
- 5–20 minute laser session
- Snap-like sensation with cooling
- Frosting effect right after
- Aftercare cream and dressing
- Return home the same day
How many sessions are needed
Most tattoos need 6–10 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Amateur tattoos fade faster; professional and coloured tattoos take more sessions.

- Professional tattoos: 8–12 sessions
- Sessions 4–6 weeks apart
- Progress reviewed at every visit
- Photo tracking of fading
- Realistic timelines from the start
