Tattoo Removal in Dubai at MED YU MED — overview

Laser tattoo removal at MED YU MED uses the PicoSure Pro (Cynosure) picosecond laser. Picosecond pulses create photoacoustic shockwaves that shatter tattoo ink into micro-particles, which the immune system clears over the following weeks. Multiple sessions are required as only a fraction of particles clears per session.

Professional tattoos with multiple colours and layers take more sessions than amateur single-colour tattoos. Black and dark blue inks respond best. Other colours (green, yellow, fluorescent) are more resistant and may require specific wavelength settings.

How it works

• Picosecond pulses (755 nm, with optional wavelength converter for other colours)
• Photoacoustic effect shatters ink particles — less heat than Q-switched
• Cleared particles removed by the lymphatic system over 6–8 weeks between sessions
• Each session progressively lightens the tattoo

Protocol at MED YU MED

• Session spacing: 6–8 weeks minimum for immune clearance between treatments
• Amateur/single-colour tattoos: 4–8 sessions typical
• Professional multi-colour tattoos: 8–15+ sessions
• Topical anaesthetic before each session
• Session duration: 15–60 minutes depending on tattoo size

Aftercare

• Treated area: cool compress for the first hour; avoid picking any blistering
• Apply antibiotic ointment and cover with a dressing for 24–48 hours
• SPF 50 on the area once healed between sessions
• Avoid sun on the treated area throughout the course
