The Tattoo Removal Clinic in Coventry is owned by Lee-Ann a passionate wellbeing and nutritional expert who takes a complete view of a body inside, and out, to ensure you are as happy as possible with how you look and feel.
Understanding skin types is crucial for effective tattoo removal, as each skin type reacts differently to various laser treatments and methodologies. Factors such as skin tone, texture, and sensitivity play significant roles in determining the best approach to safely and efficiently remove tattoos. Additionally, different skin types can influence the likelihood of scarring, pigmentation changes, and overall healing. By assessing your individual characteristics, I can tailor techniques to minimise risks and enhance the progress of successful pigment elimination. Every tattoo is unique, and so is every individual. I take the time to understand your reasons for removal, your skin type, and your goals and I create a customised treatment plan that prioritises your comfort and ensures the best possible results. I treat you like a person, not just another appointment.
Laser tattoo removal works by using high-intensity light beams to break down the tattoo ink particles in the skin. The laser targets the pigment colours of the tattoo, causing them to fragment into smaller particles that the body's immune system can then gradually eliminate.
Different wavelengths of laser light are used depending on the colours in the tattoo, as different ink colours require different wavelengths to effectively break down the pigments. The process usually requires multiple sessions, as each session will target different layers of the tattoo and continue to break down the ink particles.
After each session, the body will naturally remove the broken down ink particles through the lymphatic system, leading to a gradual fading of the tattoo. It's important to note that laser tattoo removal can be a lengthy and sometimes painful process, but it is one of the most effective methods for removing tattoos safely.
Laser tattoo removal is generally very effective for removing black ink tattoos. Black ink is the easiest colour to treat with laser removal because it absorbs all laser wavelengths equally. This makes it easier for the laser to break down the ink particles into smaller fragments that can be naturally eliminated by the body's immune system.
Keep in mind that the number of sessions needed for complete removal will vary depending on factors such as the size and age of the tattoo, as well as your individual skin type. Following a consultation where I will appraise your skin and patch test I will be able to give you a better idea of what to expect in terms of results and the number of sessions required for your specific tattoo.
The hardest colour to remove from a tattoo is typically blue or green ink. These colours tend to be more stubborn and resistant to laser tattoo removal treatments compared to black or red ink. Blue and green pigments can require more sessions and higher laser energy levels to effectively fade or remove completely. It is important to have the consultation with myself to determine the best course of action for removing these more challenging colours from your tattoos and if your aim is for total removal or lightening.
Laser treatment can be quite effective for semi-permanent tattoos - with the most popular being eyebrow tattoo removal. Since semi-permanent tattoos are designed to fade over time, they typically respond well to laser treatment. However, it may still take multiple sessions to completely remove the tattoo, depending on factors such as the ink used, the depth of the tattoo, and your skin type.
Our consultation process will enable me to assess you specific semi-permanent tattoo and recommend the best course for you.
When you come in for a tattoo removal consultation, I will:
The consultation is also an opportunity to cover any additional questions you may have regarding the overall health or your skin and if there may be other laser treatments that you may want to explore.
It's always best to have a plan in mind when looking to change a tattoo, as there are a couple of different options for you that may allow you to get the end result you want with less hassle and cost, such as tattoo fading. That's why the consultation process is so important.
Most people who have a tattoo are aware of the option of a tattoo cover up. There have been numerous television programmes showing tattoo artists designing tattoos that will cover up your old tattoo, which no longer has the same meaning or reflects the person you are today.
The main issue with taking a cover-up only option is that you are likely to have to make some compromises on the colour and size of your cover up tattoo.
Whilst removal provides a completely blank canvas if you already know what new tattoo you want, fading to a certain point will allow you to have your new tattoo inked in earlier and for less, as fewer laser sessions will be required.
Laser hair removal is generally considered to be the most effective method for reducing hair growth long-term. It works by targeting the hair follicles with concentrated light, damaging them to inhibit future growth. However, the effectiveness can vary depending on the individual's skin tone, hair colour, and hair thickness. While it is suitable for most hair types, darker hair on lighter skin tends to respond best to laser hair removal. Those with lighter hair or darker skin may require more sessions for effective results. Again taking advantage of a consultation with myself will enable me to advise on the results that can be achieved.
I offer laser hair removal for men as well as women. Area suitable for laser hair removal include legs, arms, under arms, face, bikini line, back & chest. Overall, laser hair removal can be a great option for many people looking for long-term hair reduction.
I am comprehensively trained to help remove and reduce the impact a wide range of skin conditions can have for an individual's wellbeing and confidence. I am uniquely positioned to provide both immediate results through laser treatments but can also provide dietary and nutritional guidance for conditions that have a higher likelihood of returning which can be accelerated, or decelerated through other lifestyle choices. Skin conditions I can treat include:
Exceptional service. Very pleased with the removal of my tattoo. Everything was explained in great detail by Lee-Ann and I knew what to expect at every stage. Would definitely recommend.

I must admit I was a little sceptical as to how much I would still be able to see of my old tattoo but after only a few treatments I could see that the end results would be excellent. A very personal & professional service.

I initially planned to get an old tattoo lightened so I could get a new tattoo without having to compromise on design. The lightening option was ideal as it was the most cost effective way for me to get the new tattoo I really wanted. Great service from Lee-Ann who knew exactly how to get the results I was after.

Yes, laser tattoo removal is definitely on the increase in Coventry following the overall trend in the UK. With the growing popularity of tattoos in recent years, there is also a growing demand for tattoo removal services. People change their minds about tattoos or want outdated designs removed, leading to an increase in the number of individuals seeking laser tattoo removal treatments. Advances in technology have also made the process more effective and less painful, making it a more appealing option for those looking to get rid of unwanted tattoos. If this sounds like you simply get in touch with me today.
Laser tattoo removal is generally considered safe when performed by a trained professional such as myself. However, there are some possible risks involved, such as potential scarring, skin discolouration, or infection if proper aftercare instructions are not followed. The potential risks of laser tattoo removal also depend on factors such as the type and colour of tattoo ink, the size and location of the tattoo, and your individual skin type. This is why prior to any course we carry out an assessment and patch test to minimise the risks and and maximise the benefits of laser tattoo removal for you.
The length of time it takes to remove a tattoo using laser removal completely can vary depending on factors such as the size, colour, location and age of the tattoo, as well as the skin type of the individual. In general, it can take anywhere from 5 to 15 sessions spaced out over several months to a year to achieve complete removal. The process of removing a tattoo with laser treatment is gradual because the laser breaks down the tattoo ink particles, and the body's immune system then flushes them out. Patience and consistency are key when undergoing laser tattoo removal to ensure the best results.
Laser tattoo removal is generally considered to be slightly more painful than getting a tattoo. The laser targets the pigments in the skin, breaking them down and fading the tattoo over multiple sessions. This process can be a little uncomfortable and feel like hot rubber bands snapping against the skin. In contrast, getting a tattoo involves a needle piercing the skin to deposit ink, which is often described as a scratching or burning sensation. While pain tolerance varies from person to person, many individuals find laser tattoo removal to be slightly more painful due to the repetitive and intense nature of the procedure.
Tattoo Removal Pricing: A Personalised Approach
When it comes to tattoo removal, no two journeys are the same. That's why my pricing is carefully tailored to your unique situation, ensuring that you only pay for the services you need. Here’s how I structure my pricing and what factors I consider to give you the best value and results.
1. Size of the Tattoo
The size of your tattoo is one of the primary factors influencing the cost of removal. Larger tattoos require more time and energy to treat, which impacts the overall cost. During your consultation, I will assess the dimensions of your tattoo and provide you with a clear estimate. Whether it’s a small symbol or a full sleeve, I will create a plan that fits your needs and budget.
2. Number of Colours
The complexity of your tattoo’s colour palette also plays a significant role in pricing. Tattoos with multiple colours, especially lighter shades like green and yellow, can be more challenging to remove and may require additional sessions. My advanced laser technology is equipped to handle a wide range of pigments, and I’ll give you an accurate quote based on the specific colours in your tattoo.
3. Desired End Results
Your goals for the tattoo removal process are just as important as the technical details. Are you looking for complete removal, or do you want to lighten the tattoo enough for a cover-up? The intensity of the removal process can vary depending on your desired outcome. I will discuss your expectations and craft a treatment plan that aligns with your vision, ensuring you’re satisfied with the results.
4. Number of Sessions Required
Tattoo removal is typically done over multiple sessions, spaced out to allow your skin to heal and for the body to naturally eliminate the broken-down ink particles. The number of sessions you’ll need depends on several factors, including the size, colours, and depth of the tattoo, as well as how your skin responds to the treatment. I’ll give you an estimate of the total number of sessions during your consultation, so you can plan accordingly.
5. Transparent and Flexible Pricing
I believe in transparency when it comes to pricing. After assessing your tattoo and discussing your goals, I will provide a detailed quote that outlines the expected costs. There are no hidden fees—just straightforward pricing based on your individual needs. I also offer flexible payment options as well as discounts for paying in full to make the process as convenient as possible for you.

After completing a laser tattoo removal course, the skin can vary in appearance depending on the individual's skin type and the tattoo itself. In some cases, the skin may look completely healed with no visible trace of the tattoo, while in other cases, there may be some scarring or changes in skin pigmentation. It is important to follow post-treatment care instructions to help ensure proper healing and minimise the risk of complications. Overall, the skin should gradually improve over time as the body continues to heal and regenerate new skin cells so that there are no discernible traces of any treatment being carried out.
Tattooing is an ancient art form practiced for centuries across various cultures. However, personal preferences and societal norms evolve over time. So many individuals started to seek methods to remove tattoos they no longer wanted. Laser tattoo removal has become a prominent solution for those wishing to erase their past tattoos and begin anew and the first exploration of this started in the USA towards the end of the 1960's at the University of Cincinnato by dermatologist Leon Goldman but was limited in the results that could be achieved. A major step forward towards the end of the 1980's was the introduction of pulsed PicoSure laser technology which proved much more effective and let to the procedure becoming a little more widespread. This technology used ultra-short pulse durations. It shattered the ink into microscopic fragments so that the body can then naturally eliminate these fragments and required fewer sessions for optimal results. I, however it wasn't until 2003 that more affordable commercial laser tattoo removal machines made the practice more common using the Cutera Enlighten laser, which provided a significant innovation in tattoo removal. It uses multiple wavelength technology to target various ink colours and densities. With its advanced pulse technology, this provided an effective solution for removing unwanted tattoos whilst minimising the risk of thermal damage to the surrounding skin. Since then laser technology has continued to evolve with machines being able to perform different treatments based on the operatable wavelengths. So the same machine that is used for tattoo lightening can be used for hair removal through to acne scar removal using different laser wavelength settings.
