What to do if I regret getting a tattoo?

If you have had a tattoo and you are now regretting the decision you are not alone. Between 20-30% of British adults have one or more tattoos and as time goes by over 30% of these adults will regret their decision.

Why do people regret having a tattoo?

There are numerous reasons why people regret having a tattoo. At Cambridge Laser Clinic we meet many patients who would like their tattoos to be removed. 

Most often their reasons are because the tattoo has faded, they don’t like the design any more or they feel embarrassed about the tattoo. Patients who have had an ex-partner’s name or something that reminds them of the past tattooed onto their skin will also seek removal. 

In addition to this tattoos, especially when they’re in prominent places, can impact our patients ability to get a job.

Can laser treatment remove my tattoo?

In the vast majority of cases we are able to completely remove tattoos with the technology we have at Cambridge Laser Clinic. That is because we have invested in the Quanta Discovery Pico Plus Laser.

What is the Quanta Discovery Pico Plus Laser?

This laser is the gold standard in tattoo removal technology. It is 5 times more powerful than the PicoSure laser and uses 3 full power primary wavelength laser systems (Nd YAG 1064nm / KTP 532nm & Ruby 694nm in Q Switched and PICO modes) to ensure optimal results, even on multi-coloured tattoos.

Cambridge Laser Clinic is the only clinic in the UK to have this technology. In addition to this, we have 30 years experience in laser tattoo removal and our team have delivered over 20,000 successful treatments.

It is estimated our lasers are up to 10 times more effective and deliver 16 times more power than cheaper equipment usually found on the high street.
