You may feel slight tingling or heat during the session, but the pain is usually minimal and tolerable.
The number depends on the size, type, and depth of the tattoo. Typically, you will need 6 to 10 sessions for satisfactory results.
The cost of tattoo removal varies based on the size of the tattoo and the number of sessions required. It’s best to get a consultation for an accurate cost.
Some redness or swelling may occur in the treated area after the session, but it disappears within a few hours. It is recommended to follow the aftercare instructions to minimize side effects.
The types of lasers used for tattoo removal include:
Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser: This type is commonly used for tattoo removal, especially for darker skin tones. It is effective at targeting ink while leaving the surrounding skin unaffected.
Pico Laser: This is one of the latest laser technologies for tattoo removal. It emits extremely short pulses of laser light, which helps break down the ink more efficiently and minimizes pain or damage to the surrounding skin.
Both types of lasers are FDA-approved and are known for their effectiveness in safely and precisely removing tattoos, especially on darker skin that requires special care.
Tattoos are often a deeply personal form of self-expression. They might mark memories, phases of life, or moments of passion. When that tattoo, however, loses meaning for you, what then happens? You're not alone in looking for a fresh start, from the name of an old flame to a design that didn't age well to just something you no longer find appealing.
At Emora Polyclinic in Dubai, we realize your skin serves as your canvas. We thus provide sophisticated, safe, and efficient tattoo removal treatments catered to your particular skin and narrative. From consultation to final results, our knowledgeable team, world-class technologies, and individualized approach put you in safe hands.
This article is your complete guide to tattoo removal, from how it works to what to expect and why Emora is the place to begin your journey back to clear, confident skin.
It’s more common than you think. Every year, thousands of people decide to have tattoos taken off for various reasons:
A variation in personal taste
It's okay if the dragon tattoo you acquired at 19 doesn't fit your thirty-something vibe right now.
Professional or personal motivations for career
Some companies or business environments could call for a more neutral or polished look.
Inadequate tattoo quality or faded ink
Sometimes the artist didn't exactly nail the design, or the ink doesn't hold up.
Relationship transformations
After a breakup, the name of an ex-husband or a matching couple tattoo can soon become unwelcome.
Life transforms
Changing your lifestyle or becoming a parent could set off the need to start anew.
Whatever your motivation is, just results without judgment.
Removal of a tattoo is science and technology cooperating rather than magic.
At Emora, we target the ink buried deep in your skin with sophisticated laser tattoo removal techniques. It follows this:
Laser pulses dissect the ink particles
The high-intensity light beam fragments the ink pigment into small pieces.
Your body eliminates the ink organically
Your immune system steadily removes the ink particles over the next several weeks.
Multiple sessions for full removal
Complete removal typically takes several sessions, spaced weeks apart. How many? That depends on the size, location, color, age, and depth of your tattoo.
Laser removal is the gold standard
Because it’s non-invasive, effective, and safe for most skin types when performed by professionals.
We at Emora Polyclinic stand out for these things:
Elite Laser Technology
We invest in FDA-approved, medical-grade lasers, including Q-switched Nd:YAG and Pico-based systems known for their accuracy and safety. These lasers are made to target ink without harming the nearby skin — particularly for darker skin tones typical in our area.
Personalized Approach Based on Skin-Safety
Every treatment plan developed at Emora is unique depending on
Type and tone of the skin

Post-treatment care and follow-up
One-size-fits-all is not the case with laser tattoo removal. Actually, darker skin tones call for more attention to prevent changes in pigment.
Emora is thus glad to be inclusive and knowledgeable in handling all Fitzpatrick skin tones, from fair to deep. We specifically target tattoo ink while safeguarding melanin-rich skin with specialized settings and wavelengths.
Our objective is clear regardless of background: safe, flawless, ink-free skin.
You will visit with one of our laser experts who will:
Tattoo size determines the ten to thirty minutes each session lasts. Though it's quick and mild, you might experience snapping sensations, tingling, or heat.
For a few days later, expect redness, swelling, or light scabbing; this is quite normal.
Your body takes time to eliminate the ink. Usually, we space sessions 4–8 weeks apart to allow for appropriate healing and maximum ink breakdown.
Though this varies, most tattoos call for six to ten sessions. While complicated tattoos may take more, some small or light tattoos fade in just a few.
Generally speaking, yes — but not always 100%.
Results are influenced by some elements:
Black and dark blue ink are removed most easily.
Red, yellow, and green inks can be more stubborn.
Older tattoos fade faster than new ones.
Professional tattoos usually go deeper and could call for more sessions.
At Emora, we are open about your expected outcome. We customize the strategy to fit your vision, whether your cover-up goal is complete elimination or just lightening.
When carried out by licensed experts using medical-grade tools — definitely.
Unregulated clinics or poorly qualified operators pose the largest hazards. These may lead to:
Choosing a reputable, licensed facility like Emora Polyclinic, where your safety is never compromised, is therefore absolutely vital.
Your skin deserves attention and care following every session.
Here we advise:
Dabbing a calming antibiotic ointment
Avoiding sun (wear SPF 50+)
Skipping saunas, pools, and hot baths for a few days
Avoiding picking or rubbing at scabs
Maintaining good health and hydration to support your immune system
Healing is a team effort; we will walk you through every stage.

Not all tattoos have to fade totally.
Lightening the original ink will make a big difference if you intend a cover-up tattoo. A few sessions can create a cleaner canvas for your new design — especially if you’re working with lighter colors or intricate detail.
