Tattoos no longer have to be a life long commitment! With the gold standard tattoo removal laser, MedLite C6, effective tattoo removal is safe and very achievable. The MedLite C6 laser passes measured wavelengths of light into the dermal ink of the tattoo being treated and the light is quickly absorbed. This rapid absorption of the laser’s light energy breaks the tattoo ink into tiny particles, which are then eliminated by the body’s natural filtering systems. The MedLite C6 laser provides maximum tattoo removal results without harming or scarring the surrounding skin.

Clearing Ink with Light

What is Laser Tattoo Removal?

Laser tattoo removal uses light-based technology to break up the ink in your skin so your body can gradually clear it out. At the Optimization Centre, we use the MedLite® C6 laser, often called the gold standard in tattoo removal. It’s known for being both powerful and gentle, which means it can break down the ink without damaging the skin around it.

The MedLite C6 laser sends short, high-energy pulses into the tattoo. The ink absorbs the light, which causes it to break into tiny particles. Then, your body naturally filters those out over time. Some colors come out quicker than others. Black ink is usually the easiest to treat, while lighter colors like yellow or turquoise can take a little more time. And because every tattoo is different, your treatment plan is customized to your skin type, tattoo size, placement, and color.

Why People Are Saying Goodbye to Their Ink

The Benefits of Laser Tattoo Removal

There are a lot of reasons people choose to remove a tattoo. Maybe it doesn’t mean what it used to. Maybe it was a spur-of-the-moment decision. Or maybe you just want a clean slate. Whatever the reason, laser tattoo removal gives you a safe way to move on from ink that no longer fits who you are.

Some of the biggest perks of laser tattoo removal include:

No surgery or cutting involved
Minimal downtime (most people are back to normal routines the same day)
Works on all skin types and tattoo sizes
Can help clear space for a cover-up tattoo
Helps restore confidence when a tattoo has become a source of stress

Depending on where your tattoo is, you may notice other benefits too. For example, people with hand or neck tattoos often say they feel more confident at work once the tattoo starts to fade. Tattoos on the chest or back can feel like a fresh start in how you dress or move through daily life. Everyone’s experience is a little different, and we’re here to help you get the results you’re hoping for.

Is Tattoo Removal Right for You?

Laser Tattoo Removal Candidates

Most people who want their tattoo gone are good candidates for laser tattoo removal. That said, there are a few things we look at before moving forward. These include your overall health, the colors in your tattoo, your skin tone, and how your skin has reacted to things like sunburns or previous injuries in the past.

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

People with darker skin tones can absolutely get laser tattoo removal, but we may use different settings or a specific type of laser to protect the skin.
Some colors are more stubborn than others—black is the easiest to remove, while greens and light blues might take more sessions.
If you're pregnant, have certain skin conditions, or take medications that make you sensitive to light, we’ll talk through whether this treatment is right for you.

We’ll go over all of this in your consultation, so don’t worry about figuring it out on your own.

Your First Visit: What to Expect

Your Optimization Centre Tattoo Removal Consultation

Your first appointment is all about learning more—about the tattoo you want removed, about how the laser works, and about what kind of results are possible for you.

Here’s what to expect:

We’ll take a close look at your tattoo, how deep the ink is, what colors are in it, and where it sits on your body.
You’ll talk directly with Dr. Albert or one of our trained laser specialists about your health history and goals.
We’ll give you an honest idea of how many treatments you might need, how much fading you can expect, and what the recovery will look like.
If you’re ready, we’ll help you book your first session.

Before your consultation, try to avoid sun exposure or tanning the area with the tattoo. Don’t apply lotions or creams that day, either. Just show up with your questions, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Your Tattoo Removal, Step by Step

Laser Tattoo Removal Procedure

When it’s time for your treatment, we’ll make sure you’re comfortable from the start. Most people say it feels like a quick snap against the skin, kind of like a rubber band. If you’re worried about pain, don’t be shy about speaking up. We can apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area beforehand.

We use the MedLite C6 laser because it delivers strong results with less risk to the surrounding skin. It works by sending precise bursts of light into the tattoo ink. That energy causes the ink to break into small fragments, which your body will gradually clear out in the weeks that follow.

The laser session itself usually takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the size and detail of your tattoo. Afterward, we’ll cool the area down and apply a clean dressing. Then you’re free to go, no recovery room needed.

When Will I See a Difference?

Laser Tattoo Removal Recovery, Results, and Aftercare

After your session, the area may feel a little like a sunburn. Some redness, swelling, or mild blistering is normal. We’ll give you detailed instructions to care for the treated area, but the basics are simple:

Keep it clean and dry
Apply antibiotic ointment if we recommend it
Avoid sun exposure while the area heals
Don’t pick at any scabs or peeling skin

Most people start to see fading within a few weeks, but full removal takes multiple sessions, often spaced six to eight weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on the tattoo’s size, age, ink colors, and how your body responds to the treatment. Your results will continue to improve with time. And once a tattoo is fully gone, it’s gone. You won’t need to maintain it or keep coming in unless you’re working on another piece.

How Pricing Works

How much does Laser Tattoo Removal cost?

The cost of tattoo removal depends on a few things, like how big the tattoo is, how many sessions you’ll need, and the colors involved. Smaller tattoos start around $200 per session. Larger or more detailed ones can run $500 or more per visit.

At the Optimization Centre, all pricing is customized to your specific needs, and we’ll give you a clear estimate during your consultation. We also offer financing options if you’d prefer to break up the cost over time.
