Tattoo Removal
Our Quanta Q Plus C MT Evo laser system targets all treatable colours using three true wavelengths and patented mixed technology. This advanced approach breaks down ink particles and scar tissue simultaneously, achieving superior results with fewer sessions. The exclusive OptiBeam technology ensures even energy distribution, reducing side effects by 20% compared to conventional methods while preserving surrounding skin integrity.
Skin Rejuvenation
Using Lynton 3JUVE technology, we combine fractional laser, IPL and radiofrequency to address fine lines, pigmentation and skin texture. Treatments stimulate collagen production through controlled thermal damage, improving skin elasticity and tone. Results develop over 3-9 months as new collagen forms, with visible improvements in skin firmness and luminosity.
Pigmentation Removal
Targeted IPL and Nd:YAG laser treatments break down excess melanin in sunspots, age spots and freckles. The controlled light energy heats pigmented cells while stimulating collagen renewal. Most patients achieve significant improvement in 1-3 sessions, with darker lesions requiring additional treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Vascular Lesion Treatment
Our dual approach uses IPL and Nd:YAG lasers to target thread veins and rosacea symptoms. The light energy heats blood vessels, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body. Optimal results require 3-5 sessions, with most patients experiencing 70-90% reduction in visible redness and vascular markings.
Acne Treatment
Medical-grade laser and IPL systems target overactive sebaceous glands to reduce breakouts. Treatments kill acne-causing bacteria while regulating oil production and improving skin texture. A course of 6 sessions typically achieves lasting improvement, with visible reduction in inflammation and post-acne pigmentation.

Liz is so helpful, encouraging and professional. I have been going to get 2 tattoos removed for about 6 months, and I would highly recommend Shattered Ink. My tattoos are fading nicely, and Liz explains the process thoroughly and encourages you to get in contact with her if you have any questions at all between sessions.

Was really worried about getting my first laser session, but straight away I was made to feel at ease! Very friendly and professional. Ive just finished my final removal session and Im extremely pleased with the results! Cannot wait to have it covered up, would definately recommend shattered ink to anyone considering laser!

Been going to shattered ink for a few years to get rid of a poor quality tattoo I had done 20 years ago. I can honestly say Liz is brilliant, a realist, honest and above all such a bubbly friendly person who puts you completely at ease. My tattoo has finally gone and I am so thankful I went to shattered ink and can't recommend them enough.
