Laser Tattoo Removal in Campbellfield
An unwanted tattoo, a cover-up plan or a change of direction.
Whether you want an old body tattoo to be less visible or need fading before a cover-up, start with the outcome you have in mind. My BioHealth in Campbellfield offers laser tattoo removal with an in-person consultation and required test patch, so you can understand pigment response, likely treatment stages and costs before proceeding.
The starting price is for a treatment session, not a confirmed consultation fee or full course. Ask the team to confirm the first appointment fee and duration before booking.

Preparing for your appointmentHealing and aftercareSafety and suitability
What would you like to work towards?
Fading before a cover-up
Tell us if your goal is lighter ink for a new design. The amount of fading needed can differ from aiming for maximum removal; coordinate your plan with your tattoo artist.
Reducing an unwanted tattoo
Ink colours, depth, location and skin response affect progress. Discuss staged fading and the possibility of remaining pigment rather than expecting complete clearance.

More about your appointment
You do not need a reason beyond wanting a change
Your tattoo might belong to another chapter. You may want space for a new design, or simply prefer it to be less visible. Your consultation starts with what you want to achieve: removal, meaningful fading or preparation for a cover-up.
You do not need to commit to a course before understanding what treatment involves.
What would you like to achieve?
Removal of an unwanted tattoo
Discuss the tattoo, your skin and the degree of clearance you hope to achieve. Complete removal cannot be guaranteed, but you can understand the likely pathway before proceeding.
Fading for a cover-up
You may not need the same degree of fading as someone seeking full removal. Tell us about your intended new design so the plan can reflect your goal, with your tattoo artist involved where useful.
A small or specific area
Initials, symbols, linework and larger tattoos are assessed individually. Size helps determine price; ink and skin characteristics help determine the treatment approach.
What happens at the first appointment?
1. Assess and discuss
Your practitioner examines the tattoo, reviews your skin, medicines and relevant health history, and discusses removal or cover-up goals. Size, ink colour, density, age, location and previous removal treatments inform the plan.
2. Test patch
A test patch is required before the first full treatment. It helps assess the response of your skin and ink; it does not eliminate risk or predict the final result. Your practitioner explains the observation period and next appointment.
3. Confirm the plan
Understand the quote, likely course, comfort measures, preparation and aftercare. Treatment starts only when suitability and the test-patch response have been assessed.
During a treatment session
The area is prepared, appropriate protective eyewear is used and cooling is provided for comfort. The practitioner treats the agreed area with the laser, then explains aftercare and follow-up.
The current clinic offering describes a picosecond, or Pico, laser. Exact laser time and appointment length depend on the area; your booking allocation needs confirmation. Sensation can feel like snapping against the skin and can be painful. Cooling helps with comfort but does not make treatment pain-free.
Price and course planning
Tattoo removal is available for women. Six-session packs save 20%, expire 12 months from purchase and are usually spaced 6–8 weeks apart. Consultation and patch testing take place at the appointment; treatment proceeds only where suitable under the approved protocol.
How many sessions will you need?
A course is usual. The current clinic guidance describes around 6–10 or more sessions, often spaced 6–8 weeks apart. This is planning context, not a promise or a fixed prescription. Some tattoos need fewer visits for a cover-up goal; others take substantially longer, and residual ink can remain.
Your practitioner reviews progress and healing before choosing the next interval. More frequent treatment does not necessarily mean faster clearance.
What affects progress?
- Ink colour and the laser approach available for it.
- Ink density, depth and layering.
- Tattoo age and existing fading.
- Skin tone, treatment location and healing.
- Professional, amateur or previously treated ink.
Black and dark inks often respond more readily than some lighter or mixed pigments. No single approach suits every colour, and some pigments can darken after laser exposure. The assessment and test patch help guide decisions.
How laser tattoo removal works
Short laser pulses target tattoo pigment and break it into smaller fragments. The body gradually processes some of those fragments between treatments. Skin healing and pigment clearance take time, which is why the gaps between visits matter.
The laser, pigment, settings and individual response all affect progress. Pico is a description of pulse duration, not a guarantee of fewer sessions or complete clearance.
Preparing for your appointment
- Avoid tanning and protect the treatment area from sun exposure. Current clinic preparation guidance is four weeks beforehand.
- Confirm shaving instructions with the team and avoid irritating or cutting the skin.
- Arrive with clean skin and no makeup, lotion or fake tan on the area.
- Maintain normal hydration before your visit.
- Tell the practitioner about medicines, previous tattoo removal and any skin or healing changes.
Healing and aftercare
Your practitioner provides instructions for your treated area. Healing varies, so these stages help you plan rather than define a deadline.
Immediately afterwards
Redness, swelling, tenderness and temporary whitening can occur. Use the recommended comfort measures; avoid friction, direct heat and irritating the area.
The first few days
Blistering or crusting may occur. Follow cleaning, dressing and product instructions. Avoid hot showers over the area, sauna, swimming, heavy exercise or soaking as advised.
As the surface settles
Do not pick blisters or scabs. Keep protecting the area and follow the instructions about returning to activity and products. Contact the clinic if healing is not progressing as expected.
Between appointments
Fading can develop over subsequent weeks. Temporary lightening or darkening of the skin may occur. Protect the area with clothing and use recommended sunscreen once the surface has healed.
Get prompt advice for increasing pain, spreading redness, discharge, fever or another unexpected reaction. Severe symptoms require urgent medical attention.
Safety and suitability
Before booking, tell us if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; use photosensitising medicines; have used isotretinoin in the last six months; have an infection, sunburn or recent tan in the area; tend to form keloid or hypertrophic scars; have skin cancer or an undiagnosed lesion in the area; or have photosensitive epilepsy. Also disclose conditions affecting light sensitivity, immunity or healing.
These are current clinic screening categories, not an exhaustive list. Medication timing and suitability require practitioner assessment; do not stop prescribed medicines on your own. Risks include burns, blistering, infection, scarring, pigment changes and incomplete clearance. Settings alone cannot guarantee safety for every skin tone or tattoo.
This particular service is currently available to female clients only. Ask about other pathways if this affects you.
Want to explore the evidence?
A small prospective study assessed 20 people with professional black tattoos and skin type IV after two picosecond laser sessions eight weeks apart. It reported improvement, but the findings do not establish results for every pigment, device or client.
Tattoo removal FAQs
Where is the clinic for ongoing visits?
Unit 3, 11–13 Thompson Street, Campbellfield VIC 3061. We welcome enquiries from Broadmeadows, Craigieburn, Mickleham, Coolaroo and Roxburgh Park. Check your route and allow time to arrive.
Does tattoo removal hurt, and is there downtime?
It can be uncomfortable or painful. Cooling is used for comfort; sensation varies by area and person. Redness, swelling and other healing changes can affect your activities, so discuss recovery before treatment.
Can all colours be removed?
Colour influences the approach and outcome. Dark ink often responds more readily; lighter, mixed or cosmetic pigments can be more challenging and some can darken. Your practitioner assesses what is appropriate for your tattoo.
Will the tattoo completely disappear?
Complete clearance is not guaranteed. Discuss your goal, the likely course and the possibility of residual pigment at the consultation.
Is this safe for every skin tone?
Skin tone affects suitability, settings and pigment-change risk. An in-person assessment and test patch are required; universal safety cannot be assumed.
Is fading for a cover-up different?
The goal may be a useful level of fading rather than full clearance. Tell us what you and your tattoo artist are planning so the pathway can reflect that.
Is tattoo removal right for everyone?
Suitability depends on the tattoo, skin, health, medicines and healing history. Your consultation assesses these factors before treatment.
Why is a test patch required?
It lets the practitioner assess a small area’s response before full treatment. Follow the advised observation period; the test patch is not a guarantee of the course outcome.
How is the price worked out?
By size, with published treatment pricing from $99 per session. Your assessment confirms the category and quote. Ask separately about the consultation fee, course estimate and current pack terms.
What aftercare is involved?
You receive instructions on cleaning, protection, products and activity restrictions. Follow them throughout healing and contact the clinic about unexpected changes.
Eyebrow Tattoo Removal
My BioHealth also offers assessment for unwanted microblading, powder brows and cosmetic eyebrow pigment in Campbellfield. Whether the shape no longer suits you, the pigment has faded unevenly or the colour has changed, start with a consultation and required test patch.
Cosmetic pigment behaves differently from many body tattoo inks. Treatment can reveal underlying colours or cause temporary or persistent darkening. Your practitioner assesses the pigment, skin and treatment area before discussing removal or fading.
Multiple sessions may be needed and complete clearance cannot be guaranteed. Your quote, session interval and aftercare are confirmed for your brows; the body-tattoo course estimate is not automatically a brow protocol.
Eye-area treatment requires appropriate laser eye protection and an approved practitioner protocol. Do not assume that ordinary goggles alone establish suitability for every brow area.
View Brow Tattoo Removal Appointments · Ask a Question
Can laser remove microblading or powder brows?
These are cosmetic tattoo pigments that can be assessed for laser removal or fading. Pigment composition, previous layering and skin response influence the approach and outcome.
Why can eyebrow pigment change colour?
Different components of a mixed pigment can respond differently. Other colours can become more visible and some pigments can darken. The consultation and test patch help inform the plan, without guaranteeing the response.
Can I have new brows tattooed afterwards?
Discuss the intended new work with your practitioner and brow artist. Allow the area to heal fully and obtain advice on timing before arranging another cosmetic tattoo.
