Information about Tattoo removal

Tattoo removal in Zurich with the PicoPlus™ Laser is a precise, gentle procedure for removing unwanted tattoos.

The Laser emits ultra-short energy pulses in the picosecond range, which break down the color pigments into microscopic particles. These are then broken down naturally by the body.

Compared to conventional nanosecond lasers, the PicoPlus™ is significantly more efficient and reduces the risk of skin irritation or Scars.

Even color-intensive or older tattoos can be removed with virtually no residue.

There are many reasons to have a tattoo removed—whether for aesthetic, professional, or personal reasons.
Nowadays, an unwanted or faded design no longer has to be a permanent nuisance.

Possible reasons for tattoo removal in Zurich:

  • Change in lifestyle or taste
  • Professional requirements or social changes

Consultation and preparation

Before your treatment in Zurich, Dr. Köhler will conduct a detailed consultation. During this consultation, your skin type, color pigments, and the depth of the tattoo will be analyzed. He will then create an individual treatment plan and explain the aftercare steps.

Tattoo removal procedure

The tattoo removal treatment is performed on an outpatient basis. The PicoPlus™ Laser is guided precisely over the skin, with the ultra-short pulses gently breaking down the color particles.
Depending on the size of the tattoo, a session lasts between 10 and 30 minutes.

The sensation of pain is individual – many clients describe the treatment as a slight stinging or tingling sensation. Anesthesia cream can be used on request.

Aftercare

After the treatment, the skin area should be cooled and protected from the sun.
Sauna, swimming pool, and solarium visits should be avoided in the first few days.
Gentle skin care and avoiding friction or scratching promote scar-free Healing.

As a rule, 3 to 5 sessions are necessary to completely remove a tattoo. The interval between appointments is several weeks so that the skin can regenerate optimally.
