    Intro

    What is Laser Tattoo Removal?

    Laser tattoo removal is a non-surgical treatment that uses targeted laser energy to break down tattoo pigment within the skin. At our Southampton clinic, we use advanced laser systems that deliver controlled pulses of energy into the tattoo, fragmenting the ink into smaller particles.

    These particles are then naturally processed and removed by the body's immune system over time, causing the tattoo gradually fade with each session.

    Different wavelengths are used to target specific ink colours, making the treatment effective for a wide range of tattoos. Black ink typically responds the quickest, while coloured inks may require additional sessions.

    Safe & Effective Removal with ND:YAG Technology

    Whether you're looking to fade a tattoo for a cover-up or completely remove unwanted ink, The De Peyer Clinic offers advanced ND:YAG laser tattoo removal that is both safe and effective. Our medical-grade laser technology allows us to target a wide range of tattoo colours with precision, delivering excellent results while minimising risk to your skin.

    What is ND:YAG Laser Tattoo Removal?

    ND:YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet) laser is one of the most effective technologies for breaking down tattoo pigment in the skin. It works by delivering short pulses of high-intensity light that shatter the ink particles beneath the surface. Over time, your body naturally flushes these particles away through the lymphatic system.

    Our system is designed to treat black, dark blue, red, and other coloured inks while protecting surrounding tissue.

    FEEDBACK FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

    What Our Clients Say

    "

    "After my mastectomy and reconstruction, I didn’t feel fully myself. The final step was medical tattooing, and I’m so grateful I travelled from Portsmouth to The De Peyer Clinic in Durley. The care and compassion I received were incredible."

    - Laura M., Portsmouth

    "

    "Hair loss really affected my confidence. I didn’t want surgery, so I looked into scalp micropigmentation. From the first consultation, The De Peyer Clinic in Durley made me feel completely at ease, and it was well worth the trip from Fareham."

    - Tom H., Fareham

    "

    - Rachel S., Portsmouth

    "

    "I was nervous to try PRP, but from the very first consultation, the team at The De Peyer Clinic put me completely at ease. The treatment itself was straightforward, and after just a few sessions, I noticed a real difference—less shedding and visibly thicker hair around my temples."

    - James T., Winchester

    "

    "After just a few sessions of mesotherapy at The De Peyer Clinic, I started noticing baby hairs growing where I’d had thinning for years. The treatment was quick, surprisingly comfortable, and the team made me feel completely at ease."

    - Gemma, Bournemouth

    "

    "I’ve struggled with excessive underarm sweating for years, no matter what products I used. It really affected my confidence at work and in social situations. After having anti-wrinkle injections at The De Peyer Clinic, the results have been life-changing."
