Laser Tattoo
Removal Cardiff
Beauty Advance offers professional laser tattoo removal in Cardiff from £45 per session. Whether you want a full removal, a partial fade for a cover-up, or semi-permanent makeup removal, we create a treatment plan tailored to your tattoo, your skin type, and your goal.
How Does It Work?
During your consultation, our experienced clinicians will work with you to create a bespoke treatment plan that targets your individual concerns. Achieving your desired results may require a course of treatments. We’re here to guide you every step of the way on your skincare journey.
What to Expect
Most tattoos take anywhere from 6 to 12 sessions, sometimes more. Sessions are usually spaced 6–8 weeks apart to let your skin heal and your immune system clear the broken-down ink. The tattoo won’t vanish after one session. It lightens bit by bit as your body clears the ink particles. Some colours fade faster than others.

Laser tattoo removal in Cardiff is often chosen by people who feel disconnected from a tattoo that no longer reflects who they are. Whether linked to a past relationship, a different phase of life, or preparing for a cover-up, laser tattoo removal helps clients move forward and regain confidence in their skin.
How Many Sessions Will You Need?
Most tattoos require between 6 and 12 sessions to achieve significant fading or full removal. Sessions are spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart to allow your skin to heal and your immune system to clear the broken-down ink between treatments. The exact number depends on the size, age, colour, and depth of the tattoo, as well as your skin type.
At our Cardiff tattoo removal clinic, we will give you a realistic session estimate and expected outcome at your consultation before any treatment begins.
How Does It Work
Laser tattoo removal works by directing short bursts of laser light into the tattooed skin, breaking the ink down into tiny particles. Your body’s immune system then clears these particles away naturally over time, which is why your tattoo fades gradually across multiple sessions rather than disappearing after one treatment.
What to Expect
You can expect a quick stinging sensation during treatment, often described as a hot elastic band snapping on the skin, followed by redness, swelling, and warmth. The area may blister or scab slightly as it heals. Each session lightens the ink a little more as your body clears it naturally, with the tattoo fading progressively across your course of treatment.
Semi-Permanent Makeup Removal
We also offer laser removal of semi-permanent makeup, including brows, liner, and lip blush. If you have had a procedure that has aged poorly, changed colour, or no longer suits you, laser removal is an effective way to fade or fully clear the pigment.
Semi-permanent pigments behave differently from traditional tattoo ink. They are often deposited at a shallower depth and can contain different pigment compounds, which means the removal process and number of sessions required will differ from a standard tattoo. Some pigments, particularly older brow tints, can oxidise and darken initially before fading, which is why a proper assessment before treatment is essential.
At Beauty Advance, our practitioners will assess the pigment type, depth, and colour at your consultation before recommending a treatment plan. We will give you a realistic picture of what to expect, how many sessions are likely, and what the end result should look like.
Whether you are looking for a full removal or simply want to fade the pigment enough for a corrective procedure, we will tailor the approach to your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hurt?
It feels like a hot elastic band snapping on the skin. It’s quick, and most clinics use cooling or numbing to make it manageable.
How many sessions will I need?
Usually between 6–12 sessions, depending on the size, colour, age of the tattoo and your skin type. Sessions are spaced 6–8 weeks apart.
Is laser tattoo removal safe for all skin tones?
Yes. We use advanced laser technology that can be safely calibrated for all skin tones. During your consultation, our practitioners will assess your skin type and adjust the treatment settings accordingly to minimise any risk of adverse reaction.
Will it completely disappear?
Most tattoos fade significantly, but some may leave a faint shadow, especially lighter colours like yellow or white.
How much does tattoo removal cost in Cardiff?
Sessions at Beauty Advance start from £45. The total cost depends on the size, complexity, and number of sessions required for your tattoo. We provide a full cost breakdown at your consultation so you know exactly what to expect before committing to treatment.
Do I need a consultation before my first session?
Yes. All new clients at Beauty Advance are required to book a consultation before their first treatment. This allows our practitioners to assess your tattoo, confirm suitability, discuss expected results, and provide a full cost and session breakdown before anything is booked.
Will my tattoo completely disappear?
Most tattoos fade significantly, and many achieve full clearance. However, some colours, particularly yellows, whites, and light greens, can be more resistant and may leave a faint shadow. We will give you an honest assessment of the expected outcome for your specific tattoo at the consultation.
Do you remove semi-permanent makeup as well as tattoos?
Yes. We offer laser removal for semi-permanent makeup, including eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip blush. Semi-permanent pigments behave differently from traditional tattoo ink and require a tailored treatment approach. Book a consultation and our practitioners will assess the pigment and recommend the right plan for you.

From £45 Per Session
Suitable For...
Anybody with a tattoo that wishes for it be removed.
Sessions Required
On average tattoo laser removal takes six to eight sessions, spaced apart to allow the skin to heal.
Treatment Time
Treatment time varies depending on the area to be treated.
Recovery Time
The skin may feel tender, itchy, or slightly blistered for a few days, and any scabbing typically heals within 7–14 days. Although the surface heals quickly, your body continues breaking down and clearing the ink for several weeks, which is why sessions are spaced about 6–8 weeks apart.
Potential Side Effects
Side effects can include redness, swelling, tenderness, blistering, scabbing and itching. Some people notice temporary lightening or darkening of the skin. Infection and scarring are rare and usually linked to poor aftercare.
Laser tattoo removal is for anyone who feels disconnected from a tattoo, whether because it’s linked to a past relationship, trauma, a different phase of life, or simply no longer reflects who they are. It’s often chosen by people reclaiming autonomy, seeking closure, preparing for a cover-up, or needing removal for professional reasons, and it represents not just a cosmetic change but a powerful step in taking ownership of their body and identity.
How Does It Work
Laser tattoo removal works by using short bursts of laser light to break the tattoo ink into tiny particles. Your body’s immune system then gradually clears these particles away over time, which is why the tattoo fades slowly across multiple sessions rather than disappearing instantly.
What to Expect
You can expect some quick stinging during treatment, followed by redness, swelling and a warm feeling in the skin. The area may blister or scab slightly as it heals. Tattoos fade gradually over several sessions rather than disappearing all at once, with each treatment lightening the ink a little more as your body clears it naturally.
