LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
with cryo skin cooling
Whether you’re looking to completely remove a tattoo, fade it for a cover-up, or correct unwanted permanent makeup, laser tattoo removal is the safest and most effective method available.
At Brydge Ink, we use advanced picosecond laser technology to target tattoo pigment while minimising damage to the surrounding skin. Every treatment is tailored to your tattoo, skin type, and removal goals, ensuring a personalised approach from consultation through to your final session.
Tattoo removal is a gradual process. During treatment, laser energy passes through the skin and targets the pigment particles within the tattoo. These particles are shattered into smaller fragments, allowing your body’s immune system to naturally remove them over time.
The number of sessions required varies depending on several factors, including the tattoo’s age, colour, density, location, depth, and whether it has been treated previously. During your consultation, we’ll assess your tattoo and provide realistic expectations based on your individual circumstances.
Client comfort is a priority throughout treatment. We utilise Zimmer Cryo 6 skin cooling technology to minimise discomfort and protect the skin during laser exposure, making treatments more tolerable and improving the overall experience.
Whether you’re seeking complete removal or simply creating space for new artwork, we’re here to guide you through every stage of the process with honest advice, professional care, and realistic expectations.

Brydge Ink and The Laser & Skin Edit work in partnership, sharing an advanced picosecond laser platform to provide high-quality tattoo removal, permanent makeup correction, and laser treatments.
While each business operates independently with its own specialist expertise, our collaboration allows clients to benefit from a seamless treatment experience, shared technology, and greater appointment flexibility. By working closely together, we can ensure treatment plans are tailored to each individual’s goals, skin characteristics, and pigment type, while providing clear guidance and realistic expectations throughout the process.
Coral, founder of The Laser & Skin Edit, specialises in laser and skin treatments, with a strong focus on skin health and treatment outcomes. Alongside Brydge Ink’s extensive knowledge of tattooing, pigment behaviour, and removal processes, this partnership creates a well-rounded approach that prioritises both effective results and skin integrity.
Together, we currently offer appointments across five days each week, providing greater flexibility for our clients. Appointments with Coral are available on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and alternate Fridays and Saturdays, while Beth is available on alternate Fridays and Saturdays, as well as Sundays. As we continue to grow, we will soon be expanding availability to include Mondays and Wednesdays.
Above all, our shared commitment is to providing safe, honest, and professional care at every stage of your removal journey.
Many people assume that laser tattoo removal “burns” tattoo ink away. In reality, the process is far more sophisticated.
Tattoo ink sits within the dermis, the deeper layer of skin. Because the pigment particles are too large for the body to remove naturally, they remain visible for many years.
Laser tattoo removal works through a process known as selective photothermolysis and photoacoustic fragmentation. Specific wavelengths of laser energy are absorbed by tattoo pigments while largely bypassing the surrounding skin.
When the laser pulse strikes the pigment, the particles rapidly absorb energy and shatter into much smaller fragments. Over the following weeks, your immune system recognises these fragments as waste material and gradually removes them through the lymphatic system.
This is why fading continues long after your appointment has finished. The laser performs the fragmentation, but your body completes the removal process.
Several factors influence how quickly a tattoo responds to treatment, including:
• Ink colour and composition
• Tattoo age
• Tattoo density and layering
• Location on the body
• Skin type
• Overall health and immune function
• Smoking status
• Sun exposure
Because the removal process relies on your body’s natural clearance mechanisms, treatments must be spaced appropriately apart to allow the skin to heal and the immune system to process fragmented pigment.
Every tattoo responds differently, which is why realistic expectations and an individualised treatment plan are essential for achieving the best possible outcome.
Client comfort and skin protection are integral parts of every treatment. That’s why we use the Zimmer Cryo 6, a medical-grade skin cooling system designed specifically for laser procedures.
The Cryo 6 delivers a continuous stream of chilled air to the treatment area before, during, and after laser exposure. This cools the skin without interfering with the laser energy reaching the tattoo pigment.
Benefits of Cryo 6 cooling include:
• Increased client comfort during treatment
• Reduced sensation of heat and discomfort
• Improved skin protection during laser exposure
• Reduced risk of thermal injury to surrounding tissue
• No need for topical anaesthetic creams in most cases
• Consistent cooling throughout the procedure
• Enhanced overall treatment experience
Unlike ice packs or cooling gels, the Cryo 6 provides controlled, uninterrupted cooling throughout the entire treatment, helping clients tolerate sessions more comfortably while maintaining treatment effectiveness.
Picosecond lasers represent one of the most advanced developments in laser tattoo removal technology.
The term “picosecond” refers to the incredibly short duration of each laser pulse—one trillionth of a second. These ultra-short pulses deliver energy faster and more efficiently than older nanosecond laser systems, creating a stronger photoacoustic effect that breaks pigment into much smaller particles.
Smaller pigment fragments are easier for the body’s immune system to remove, often resulting in faster clearance and improved outcomes.
Benefits of picosecond technology include:
• More efficient pigment fragmentation
• Improved treatment of stubborn tattoos
• Reduced heat transfer to surrounding tissue
• Greater skin protection during treatment
• Potentially fewer treatment sessions compared to older technologies
• Effective treatment of both professional and amateur tattoos
While no laser can guarantee complete removal in a specific number of sessions, picosecond technology is widely regarded as one of the most effective options available for modern tattoo removal.
Permanent makeup removal requires a different approach to traditional tattoo removal. The pigments used, the delicate facial area, and the potential for colour shifts all demand a thorough understanding of both pigment behaviour and laser technology.
At Brydge Ink, permanent makeup removal is approached from a unique perspective. As a permanent makeup and tattoo professional, Beth understands not only how pigments are removed, but also how they are implanted, how they age within the skin, and how different pigment formulations can respond to laser treatment.
This knowledge is particularly important when treating cosmetic eyebrow tattoos, where factors such as pigment composition, previous treatments, colour corrections, and ink migration can all influence the removal process. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach, every treatment plan is tailored to the individual pigment history and desired outcome.
Whether you’re looking to completely remove old permanent makeup, correct unwanted colour changes, lighten brows for a fresh treatment, or address work that no longer suits your features, treatment is carried out with careful consideration for both the skin and the final aesthetic result.
Clients often seek treatment after experiencing brows that have faded to unwanted tones, changed shape over time, become oversaturated through repeated procedures, or simply no longer reflect their current style. Through a combination of advanced picosecond laser technology and specialist pigment knowledge, we can safely work towards reducing or removing unwanted pigment while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding skin and hair.
Our goal is not simply to remove pigment, but to provide honest guidance, realistic expectations, and a treatment plan that supports the best possible outcome for your individual situation.
