Active Q-Switched Nanosecond Tattoo Removal
We describe our technology accurately. Suitable Bolton clients are treated at our Chorley clinic using the Asclepion NanoStar Y, a German-engineered active Q-switched nanosecond laser designed for controlled tattoo pigment fragmentation using 1064 nm and 532 nm wavelengths.
1064 nm
Commonly selected for black, dark grey, dark blue and selected darker green tattoo pigments following consultation and patch testing.
532 nm
Commonly selected for red, orange, pink, purple and other suitable warm-toned tattoo pigments following professional assessment.
Multi-Colour Tattoo Assessment
Multi-coloured tattoos are assessed individually so the most suitable wavelength and treatment plan can be selected for each pigment present.

How treatment works
How Laser Tattoo Removal Works
The laser delivers controlled energy into the tattoo pigment. The pigment absorbs the energy and fragments into smaller particles, which the body gradually clears over the following weeks.
1. Consultation and Patch Test
We assess skin type, tattoo history, colours, density, placement, medical history and your removal or fading goal.
2. Laser Treatment
Appropriate wavelength, spot size and energy are selected according to the tattoo and skin response.
3. Healing and Fading
The skin heals while the body gradually processes fragmented pigment between appointments.
Treatment intervals and expectations
How Many Sessions Will You Need?
There is no fixed number for every tattoo. Older, lighter and less-dense tattoos may respond faster, while professional ink, cover-ups, layered pigment and resistant colours can require more treatment.
- Many tattoos require multiple sessions rather than one treatment.
- Appointments are commonly spaced around 6–8 weeks apart, with longer intervals sometimes recommended.
- Hands, fingers, feet and lower legs can fade more slowly because of circulation and healing factors.
- Complete removal cannot be guaranteed, and some residual pigment or ghosting may remain.
- Cover-up fading may require fewer sessions than full removal.

Tattoo removal FAQs
Questions Before Treatment
Clear answers about pain, colour, fine-line tattoos, pricing, sessions and suitability.
Do you offer fine-line tattoo removal in Bolton?⌄
Yes. We assess fine-line tattoos, small script, delicate symbols and minimalist tattoo work for Bolton clients seeking full removal or controlled fading.
Where will I have tattoo removal treatment if I live in Bolton?⌄
Suitable tattoo removal treatments are provided through our specialist Chorley clinic, where the German-engineered Asclepion NanoStar Y active Q-switched nanosecond laser is located. Bolton clients can send photographs, measurements and their postcode so we can advise on sizing, suitability and the consultation and patch-test pathway.
Is this a pico laser?⌄
No. We use the Asclepion NanoStar Y, a German-engineered active Q-switched nanosecond laser. We describe the technology accurately rather than marketing it as pico.
Can you remove coloured tattoos?⌄
Yes. We assess black and coloured tattoo pigments individually. The 1064 nm wavelength is commonly selected for black, dark grey, dark blue and selected darker green pigments, while 532 nm is commonly selected for red, orange, pink, purple and other suitable warm tones.
How many sessions will I need?⌄
The number varies according to colour, depth, density, age, placement, layering, skin response and whether your goal is fading or full removal.
Does laser tattoo removal hurt?⌄
Most clients describe a rapid snapping or hot-pricking sensation. Treatment is usually quick, and cooling is used to improve comfort.
How long should I wait between sessions?⌄
Treatments are commonly spaced around 6–8 weeks apart, although longer intervals may be recommended depending on healing, location and response.
Can you fade a tattoo for a cover-up?⌄
Yes. Controlled fading can reduce heavy areas and dark lines to give a tattoo artist more flexibility for a future cover-up.
How much does tattoo removal cost?⌄
Single treatments start at £75. Course prices are available, and extra-large tattoos or bespoke fading projects are quoted individually.
Do I need a consultation and patch test?⌄
Yes. A consultation and patch test are required before treatment so we can assess suitability and plan the safest appropriate approach.
