Tattoo removal at Anaël is a laser-based treatment aimed at progressively fading the appearance of an existing tattoo. It's a gradual process, and the salon team assesses each case before getting started.
Technology: It's based on laser technology applied to the skin over several sessions; the specific laser type isn't stated publicly on this page. Equipment: The laser equipment used belongs to the salon; its brand and model aren't listed here.
What it is
A laser treatment aimed at fading or lightening a tattoo over several sessions. The response varies depending on the tattoo and the person's skin, so it isn't presented as an immediate or uniform result.
Common goals
Usually sought to fade a tattoo the person no longer wants to keep, either to reduce its visibility or to prepare it for a cover-up with a different design.
Who it may suit
Anyone who wants to fade or reduce an existing tattoo and understands this is a gradual process, always assessed individually during the prior consultation.
Treatment areas
The area where the tattoo to be treated is located, assessed individually based on its position and characteristics.
What a typical appointment looks like
For this type of treatment, the appointment usually includes an assessment of the area, adjusting the device's settings to your skin and goal, and application of the treatment. Duration and number of sessions vary case by case and are discussed at your initial consultation.
What you might feel
The sensation depends on the type of device and the area treated; many people describe it as a small pinch or a brief flash of heat, similar to the snap of a rubber band. The team walks you through what to expect at your pre-session consultation.
Preparation
As a general guideline for this type of treatment, it's usually recommended to avoid prior sun exposure on the area and to follow the specific instructions the team gives you. The team adds any further guidance at your pre-treatment consultation.
Aftercare
After this type of treatment, it's usually recommended to protect the area from the sun and follow the salon's guidance in the following days. The team gives you specific aftercare guidance at the end of the session, based on the area treated.
Some treatments of this type can cause temporary redness or sensitivity in the treated area. The team explains which reactions are common and how to look after yourself afterward.
A treatment adapted to you
At Anaël, this type of treatment is assessed individually, since suitability depends on skin type and the area to be treated.
Before booking, a prior consultation with the Anaël team is recommended to confirm whether the treatment is right for your case.
Alternatives at Anaël
If the goal is to cover the tattoo rather than fade it, a cover-up tattoo may be a different route; the Anaël team can advise on which approach best fits what you're looking for.
Common reasons to consult
Usually sought out by those wishing to reduce the visibility of a tattoo or prepare it for a cover-up.
