Laser Tattoo Removal is THE way to eradicate your unwanted body art.
Let’s address the MOST asked question (and most peoples main concern)
HOW MUCH does it hurt?
Our Tattoo Removal isn’t painful. Each laser pulse has been likened to that of an elastic band hitting the skin. However, we offer Cryogenic cooling, ice packs and if you still feel it’s too uncomfortable, we have excellent numbing cream too. So NO, it shouldn’t be painful! Immediately after treatment, there may be swelling, bruising or crusting and scabbing, which can last up to 2 weeks. There is usually some itching too whilst the skin is healing.

Laser Tattoo Removal FAQs
We use the most up-to-date and advanced Active Q Switch ND YAG Laser equipment which offers super quick treatment times.
How does it work?
Put simply, A laser produces a powerful beam of light that can precisely transfer energy to the targets (ink) within the skin. The beam of light is produced in one wavelength which will be preferentially absorbed by certain tattoo pigments. The key requirement for a laser to remove tattoos is for it to be Q-switched. This means that the energy is delivered in a very short pulse duration which ‘cracks’ the tattoo pigment particles and is effectively absorbed by the tattoo pigment.
You will need a consultation and test patch prior to your first laser hair removal treatment to discuss the best course of treatment and assess your suitability.
Take a peek at our FAQs below and please book a consultation to discuss your requirements further.
Will it hurt?
Our Tattoo Removal isn’t painful. Each laser pulse has been likened to that of an elastic band hitting the skin. However, we offer Cryogenic cooling, and ice packs and if you still feel it’s too uncomfortable, we have excellent numbing cream too. So NO, it shouldn’t be painful! Immediately after treatment, there may be swelling, bruising, or crusting and scabbing, which can last up to 2 weeks. There is usually some itching too whilst the skin is healing.
I’m embarrassed.
There is absolutely nothing to fear, we have sturdy, comfortable electric treatment couches. We position you in the best way to get to the treatment area, in minimal time with the least discomfort. We pride ourselves on making clients feel as comfortable as possible. There is absolutely no body shaming at Tivoli HotWax. We treat clients of all ages, shapes, sizes, and we love hearing your tattoo stories. Please don’t be shy, we are a sympathetic, experienced team.
Will anything prevent me from having Laser treatments?
Yes. These are known as 'Contraindications'. You will be asked to fill in a 'consultation form' on the booking system, prior to consultation and you MUST advise us prior to your appointment if anything changes.
Do I need to do anything before my laser consultation/treatment?
Please ensure you have NO FAKE TAN in the areas to be treated. If you come with fake tan on the areas to be treated, we will be unable to treat you and you will be charged for the appointment time allocated to you. You should avoid sun exposure in the treatment area.
How many Laser Treatments will I need?
It is likely you will need between 6-12 laser treatments for removal. 2 or 3 for a fade or Brow Removal. All tattoos are different, there's not a ‘one size fits all’ approach to removal. We usually recommend treating at 8-12 week intervals.
Can I be Lasered whilst pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. And also not during breastfeeding. If you’re planning a family, or have a new baby, Laser will have to wait. If you find out you are pregnant during your course of treatment, you should stop your treatments. You can restart once you have finished breastfeeding.
I’m going on Holiday, when should I be Lasered?
For Laser - the fairer your skin is, the more aggressively you can be treated. Our lasers CAN treat tanned skin however we would always advise staying out of the sun for a month prior to treatments, or, if that is impossible, wearing SPF50. We will not treat you if you have actively tanned 2 weeks before your appointment. Having Laser is a commitment to your skin. You risk serious burns if you are not treated accordingly. We will talk more in your consultation.
An online consultation form will be assessed prior to your physical consultation and a patch test, to assess your suitability, and further physical consultation and a test patch will be required prior to carrying out any Laser Tattoo Removal Treatment. We try to be as transparent as possible when quoting pricing for treatments, but please understand some people’s needs are different from others.
What should I wear?
Please come in clean, loose clothes with absolutely no fake tan or makeup in the areas we are treating
Can I bring a friend?
This is a non-spectator sport! We do not allow pets, children, friends, or partners (or your mum - unless you’re under 18!) in the room whilst you are being treated. There is dangerous equipment. Completely unsuitable for kids or pets. There is a small waiting area for clients only. There are some lovely cafes in The Courtyard right outside where a friend/partner could wait.
We do not allow photos/filming of your treatment (unless agreed prior) however we have an Instagram spot and love being tagged in your pre/post treatment piccies! Make sure you follow us on social media for appointment availability and late cancellations
