We are committed to using the latest laser technology for comfortable and convenient tattoo removal. The laser technology that we use erases unwanted ink more effectively than ever before, successfully removing difficult ink colors as well as previously treated tattoos. Fewer treatments, faster recovery time, and greater results are now achievable. Laser tattoo removal has become a popular treatment due its safety and effectiveness when performed in a modern medical facility.
We can effectively remove:
Best of all, our tattoo removal often requires fewer treatments than traditional laser tattoo removal.
We can all agree that some tattoos are mistakes. If you’re ready to get rid of an embarrassing or just plain ugly tattoo from your past, laser tattoo removal for you!
At Lethbridge Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, we specialize in tattoo removal. Using an advanced laser, it breaks up ink particles more easily than any other method. Finally, your ink doesn’t have to be permanent – “forever” can become “like it never even happened”.

The word “laser” might sound harsh to some, but it is actually an incredibly quick and safe process. To put it simply, a highly concentrated pulse of heat energy penetrates the skin so fast that the ink underneath is shattered but the surrounding skin isn’t burnt. The smaller ink particles are then naturally absorbed and removed by the body.
So what’s the catch?
Nope, no catch, no false promises, just proven and tested science. If you were wondering how does laser tattoo removal work, that really is all there is to it! That’s why tattoo laser removal is the most effective option available. Instead of wasting money on topical creams, lotions, and body scrubs that don’t work, save your money and have it done right the first time.
PicoSure is a new type of laser that lets medical professionals remove tattoos more completely than ever before. Safe and effective for ALL Fitzpatrick skin types.

The main difference between PicoSure laser tattoo removal and other digital removal methods is speed. A PicoSure laser can release the same amount of energy as a traditional laser in a picosecond, which is a trillionth of a second. It’s the fastest laser in the world of dermatology. The faster the laser, the less heat is produced. The excess heat from slower lasers can damage the skin and lead to scarring, but PicoSure’s laser is so lightning fast that it doesn’t burn skin tissue. The picosecond laser is also able to break ink particles into smaller pieces, which means faster ink absorption, shorter treatment times, and a more complete removal.
The length of time it takes will depend on a few different things, including:
But no matter what, one thing is for certain – it doesn’t take nearly as long as getting a tattoo. Instead of sitting in a chair for hours, a PicoSure laser tattoo removal session only takes minutes (20 minutes on average). Larger designs, complex colors, and ink on more sensitive parts of the body will add a few minutes, but you’ll typically be in and out in under an hour. Yes, it’s that quick! A few more sessions over the next several months, and you’ll be almost completely tat-free.
Laser tattoo removal has been described as feeling similar to the actual tattooing process. The good news is that unlike getting inked, you’ll only feel that pain for a few minutes, not hours. If you have already experienced laser procedures, then you should already be familiar with the sensation. If you haven’t, that’s okay too – we promise to make your first time as seamless as possible.
Your comfort is important to us. From your first consultation to your last treatment session, we want you to feel relaxed. That’s why we do everything we can to make your treatment experience as painless as possible by providing a welcoming environment and the right tattoo removal pain relief options.
