Laser Tattoo Removal in Bristol by Dr Brad

Doctor-Led, Medical-Grade Laser Tattoo Removal Using Advanced Q-Switched Technology
If you are considering laser tattoo removal in Bristol, the most important decision is not the price per session — it is who is making the clinical decisions that affect your skin.
At Doctor Brad’s Clinic, tattoo removal is performed by Dr Brad, a GMC-registered doctor using advanced active-Q-switched laser technology, with protocols designed around ink behaviour, skin biology, and long-term safety, not volume or speed.
Why Medical Tattoo Removal Matters
Tattoo removal is not simply “firing a laser at ink”.
Every tattoo behaves differently depending on:
-
Ink colour and composition
-
Ink depth and density
-
Skin type and pigmentation
-
Location on the body
-
Age of the tattoo
-
Prior treatments or scarring
Incorrect settings, rushed treatments, or inadequate assessment increase the risk of:
-
Scarring
-
Permanent pigment loss
-
Paradoxical darkening
-
Incomplete or patchy clearance
This is why your treatment is planned and delivered carefully, not cosmetically.
Advanced Q-Switched Laser Tattoo Removal
We use a medical-grade Q-switched laser system, capable of delivering ultra-short pulses of high-energy laser designed to shatter tattoo ink particles without damaging surrounding tissue.
How it works
-
The laser targets tattoo pigment selectively
-
Ink particles fragment into microscopic debris
-
Your immune system gradually clears the ink over time
-
Skin heals between sessions
Different wavelengths are used for different ink colours, allowing treatment of:
-
Black and dark inks
-
Reds and browns
-
Blues and greens (where appropriate)
-
Complex or mixed-colour tattoos
What Makes Our Approach Different
Doctor-Led Assessment
Every patient is assessed by a doctor who deeply understands:
-
Laser–tissue interaction
-
Pigment physics
-
Risk factors for scarring and pigment disturbance
Effective Evidence-Based Protocols
We prioritise:
-
Safe fluence thresholds
- Effective escalation
-
Appropriate spot sizes
-
Adequate healing intervals
-
Long-term skin integrity
Test Patching When Indicated
For certain tattoos (cosmetic tattoos, unusual pigments, darker skin types), a test patch may be recommended before full treatment to reduce risk.
This is a mark of care, not caution.
What Results Can You Expect?
Tattoo removal is gradual.
Most tattoos require:
-
Multiple sessions (often 6–12+)
-
Treatments spaced 6–8 weeks apart
-
Patience while the immune system clears ink
Factors affecting clearance:
-
Professional tattoos take longer than amateur tattoos
-
Dense or layered ink requires more sessions
-
Tattoos on lower limbs or peripheries clear more slowly
-
Certain colours are more resistant
We will give you realistic expectations, not sales promises.
Safety, Skin Types & Risk Management
We treat a wide range of skin tones and tattoo types, but safety always comes first.
Possible temporary effects include:
-
Redness and swelling
-
Blistering
-
Temporary pigment changes
Permanent complications are rare when treatment is performed correctly, but risk increases significantly with:
-
Over-treatment
-
Inadequate spacing
-
Incorrect wavelength selection
-
Poor aftercare
Our protocols are designed to minimise risk at every stage.
