At Clean Canvas, we promise to always treat you, your skin and your tattoo as unique, and provide you with an outstanding customer experience. As your comfort and safety is our priority, we invest in leading industry technology to give you the best possible results in fewer treatments, without compromising your wellbeing. You are our focus, and that is what sets us apart.

We are firm believers in the continual investment in training and development to ensure we are using the latest techniques and technology. We also ensure you are treated by the same operator at each of your sessions to ensure consistency and efficacy in your results.

But most of all, we are professional, discrete and love what we do!

We’re able to remove decorative tattoos, professional, amateur, medical tattoos, scalp and cosmetic tattoos.

PicoWay pulses are fast, so there is minimal discomfort, particularly when compared to machines with a longer pulse duration that induce a more thermal (heat) effect. Some customers describe the feeling as having similarity to the snap of an elastic band on the skin.

We want all of our clients to feel as comfortable as possible, so we have some comfort management options available.

You can use our cooling device, prior to, during, and after the treatment where required. The cooling air can help to numb the skin and make the experience more comfortable.

We can also apply a topical anaesthetic if that is your preference. If you would like to go ahead with this, please allow an additional 45 minutes prior to your treatment so that it may reach maximum numbing effectiveness.

However, if you were able to tolerate the discomfort of getting your tattoo, it’s likely you will be able to tolerate having it removed.

PicoWay treatments selectively treat the tattoo while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. Its ultrashort picosecond pulses allow for effective treatments with minimal risk of side effects. Its photo-acoustic energy delivery means that there is significantly less heat generated, reducing the risk and providing clearance in fewer treatments.

In the vast majority of cases we will be able to achieve 100% tattoo removal. Our PicoWay device’s 3 picosecond wavelengths effectively targets all colours and includes fractional laser capabilities that stimulate healing and skin remodelling. Through a thorough consultation, we will assess your tattoo and your current health in order to advise on the level of clearance you can expect to achieve.

Your first session with us will consist of an in-depth consultation where we assess your tattoo, run through a current and historical health check, outline the tattoo removal process and give you time to ask questions. If you are an eligible candidate and decide to proceed, then we will more than likely go ahead with your first treatment and post care instructions right away. We allow an hour for this initial session.

Following sessions will generally be much quicker. They will be dependent mostly on the size of your tattoo and would generally be anywhere between 5 and 30 minutes.

If you opt-in to having a topical anaesthetic applied, then you will need to allow for an additional 45 minutes to an hour prior to each treatment. This is the time required to reach the most favourable numbing effect.
