For the past 12 years I have worked in the tattoo industry and as a result of that I gathered quite a few tattoos along the way! After getting married and having 2 children I felt the need for a bit of stability and consistency both in work hours and financially, so the thought of a defense force career popped up again and my long….long journey of tattoo removal began. Amanda and the girls at LaserTat are amazing and have helped me and encouraged me the whole way through the process even on the days that I didn't want to deal with another session they made it as comfortable and friendly as possible and without that I may have not made it all this way. I cannot recommend LaserTat enough to anyone wanting to remove a little old tattoo or to help completely change your life like they have in my instance.
I got my tattoos when I was young and I really liked them at the time. They didn’t have a special meaning or deep connection to me, I just liked them so I got them. I chose to remove them because as I got older they felt outdated and made me self-conscious about having them on my body. I felt I had outgrown them. Having laser tattoo removal made me feel more like myself. As we grow we change and having clean skin is important to me now. The girls at LaserTat were so honest and helpful. I found the process really painful and they never made me feel like I wasn’t handling the pain well or was complaining too much. They gave me information and guidance to get the best results which was leave as much time in between your removals as you can and you will see better results. I went roughly every 4 months for the removal on my back but as it started to fade I left it longer in between treatments and the results speak for themselves. My other tattoos I am getting removed I only have them lasered once a year and the results are already incredible. I felt the girls at LaserTat were genuine with their advice and service and didn’t want me to keep coming back to a schedule so they could make money every 6 weeks. It really was to help me achieve my results and i appreciate their professionalism. Advice for people removing their tattoos is go to LaserTat for the best results. This has honestly been such a great experience and I am very grateful, thank you.
Huge thanks to Amanda for finally getting complete tattoo removal off my neck words cant describe what you have done for me its been a long journey but we got there its been life-changing thankyou very much. Amazing job with very little pigmentation if any on a complete tattoo removal on my neck cant thank her enough highly recommend 5 stars all the way.
I got my tattoo to represent my two sons, the position of the hands reflected their birthdates.. The reason I chose to remove my tattoo was because I just didn't "LOVE" it. It didn't turn out the way I had planned and there were little things I wanted to change. I feel pleased that it is no longer visible because I wasn't happy with the final result. Instead of looking down and feeling disappointed I can now start again with a blank slate. I always felt comfortable and welcome at LaserTat, right from the initial consult through to the after care. I thought I would feel "silly" or judged for changing my mind about my tattoo, but the staff were kind, helpful and really made the experience easy. The staff were knowledgeable and always talked through the stage my removal was at, what it needed and what they were going to do next. The laser experience was a little painful, but it's over so quickly and the staff are attentive to pausing for breaks if they are needed. I followed the aftercare instructions and didn't have any issues healing. Different parts my body (back vs wrist) reacted slightly differently in regards to tenderness, swelling and bruising but it would settle the next day. This was all outlined to me before I had the treatment so there weren't any surprises. Any advice I can provide is that if you're not happy with your tattoo, change it. Use the numbing cream and give it plenty of time to do its magic (at least a couple of hours), as it does take the 'sting' out of it. Gone are the days when our parents would say, "Choose a tattoo carefully, because you're stuck with it for life". I'm so glad that there is a service like LaserTat that gives flexibility and freedom to the choices we make with our bodies.
LaserTat continuously gives outstanding customer service and despite the brief pain of the laser I always enjoy heading in for a session. The space is clean, aesthetically pleasing and I know I'm in safe hands every time. Seeing great results from my laser tattoo removal 👌Can't rave about LaserTat enough, highly recommend.
Hi Amanda. After a 2 year wait, I've finally got around to sending you my pic of my arm after your treatment to remove my ugly tat. As you said it has continued to fade and is now almost gone. Very pleased with the result, thank you.
If it wasn't for LaserTat I wouldn't be able to move on from my old life. I served 8 years in prison after making some really bad choices. In prison I made a change, I didn't want that life anymore and in order to make my move I had to get my face tattoos removed. I didn't want to look like a monster anymore, I wanted a quiet life with a family and to have fun and now I have been out for nearly a year and I'm soaring. I can now pick my daughter up from school without her getting embarrassed about my face and I feel like a new person. LaserTat gave me an opportunity to get my life back and I'll be forever grateful for them #bestlasertat around.
The Fresh Start Program has changed my life in so many ways. The stain has faded almost completely in a big patch on my arm, and the rest of the fading is so significant that I rarely get comments or questions anymore. So not only has the fresh start program helped me cosmetically, but financially it’s been a lifesaver. I am so grateful to LaserTat for their generosity and compassion, because if not for that, I never would have been able to have this treatment or have the results I’ve gotten.
My experience with LaserTat has always been amazing! Emmi is always patient and made sure I was comfortable throughout my treatments, always setting realistic expectations for both treatments and results. While the laser sessions could sometimes be rough, Emmi is always understanding and gave me breaks making it more manageable. I am beyond happy with my results that LaserTat has helped me achieve. By removing the old tattoo, it's allowed me to feel confident in my skin and allowed me to have the creative freedom with a new tattoo that I now love and am not embarrassed to show. I no longer feel the need to cover up my arm from others.
Amanda at LaserTat I can’t thank you enough for helping me fade my tattoo. Thank you for always putting up with my whinging at every laser session. Although every sit sucked, you 100% made it a good time and somehow I was laughing by the end of it. None of this would've been possible without you, I already feel so much better about myself and I actually can't wait to show it off in a bikini this year!
I had multiple laser treatments from LaserTat a few years ago to help fade some brightly coloured tattoos on my inner and outer bicep. Amanda was very professional and gave great treatment and advise throughout the whole process. Even hard to remove colours faded great over time and I have recently completed a full sleeve cover-up. You wouldn't even know the previous tattoos were there unless I pointed it out. I have recommended Lasertat to anyone who as asked me about tattoo removal. Thanks for your help Amanda
Hi Amanda, just wanted to say a huge thank you for the removal work you had done for me a while back and show you the finished result of the coverup I was able to finally get thanks to your services. Could not have achieved this without your help and highly recommend you to everyone. Thank you again!
My client was after some dark evil type of art to cover the lasered area. With a slight bit of green still showing it actually looks part of the piece, we will either add opaque greys over it or leave it as is and utilise the colour. Main thing is he is beyond happy with the new tatt and pleased to say goodbye to the previous!
This is a reminder to anyone who is not happy with work they have that it can be removed and replaced with better work (some work only needs a little fading, all depends on what it is.

A lot of my cover-up work wouldn’t have been possible unless the clients had laser first. When clients don’t want a dark or saturated tattoo, having a few laser treatments allows for a cover-up with much more creative freedom and flexibility. As a Tattoo Artist, I will never go ahead with a tattoo that will compromise my quality of work and will often refer clients to have laser if the cover-up isn’t achievable without the help of fading first.

By the client having laser tattoo removal to fade her existing tattoo, it opened up a world of possibilities when I was approaching her cover-up design. With the old tattoo softened, I had more flexibility to get creative without worrying about dark saturated colours of the old tattoo interfering. Trying to cover a dark tattoo without fading it first can lead to a messy result, so this step was necessary for a clean cover-up, concealing the old tattoo.
I was recommended LaserTat for a significant bleed I had. I wasn’t aware laser removal could correct bleeding. Amanda was so professional upon my consult and confident that the treatment would eliminate the bleed. Treatment was completed and this exceeded my expectations by far. Can’t thank her and her services enough.
The girls at LaserTat are amazing and all so lovely! 2022 I started my laser tattoo removal at a different clinic and after one session it left me traumatised and literally scared because I had a horrible reaction. The laser had been turned right up and no cooling aid was used during or after the laser. After a few weeks went by my tattoo wasn’t showing any signs of getting better so I reached out to the girls at LaserTat told them what had happened and what I was experiencing, they asked for photos and they advised me what to do. Sure enough I started to heal up. Once I was healed and the reaction went away, I went to my first appointment and I haven’t looked back since. I’ve experienced 0 reactions and I heal up beautifully. I’m a few sessions in now and I have been loving my results. Unfortunately it does take time and patience but it’s all going to be worth it in the end, tattoos are no longer permanent.
I can’t thank LaserTat enough for helping me on my tattoo removal journey. Every visit has been comfortable, quick and stress free which really means a lot. Stacey has been particularly helpful and accommodating, and truly my only regret is not going through the process sooner!
Couldn't recommended a tattoo removal place more highly! Amanda and her team are so wonderful and patient and they're extremely knowledgeable and are more than happy to answer any questions in relation to your tattoo removal that you may have. They make you feel extremely comfortable and are just an all around great team and place.
The girls at LaserTat were super knowledgeable, reassuring, able to answer my many questions and were caring and had a bubbly demeanour. I knew I’d made a great decision having my tattoos removed at LaserTat. These girls know their stuff! They are very encouraging! As a health professional, I was really impressed with the set-up, after-care instructions and the customer service provided. Thanks so much! A solid 5 stars!
The staff never fail to make me feel calm and confident. They explain everything, even the technical side of it, all in plain English. They are always very considerate of the fact that it’s a painful process and regularly check in during my treatment to see if I need a break even though my treatment must only be about 30 seconds long! I’ve never tried numbing cream because it’s such a quick session and because I know they’re well trained and will make it as quick as they can. All in all these folks know how to make an altogether unpleasant experience as pleasant as they can. Thanks LaserTat!
Today I had my first consult and then laser session with Emmi. I was greeted politely, and she explained what to expect and how it all works. After viewing my tattoo I agreed to undertake my first session. My experience at LaserTat was great and I highly recommend them for laser removal.
The Fresh Start program is one of a kind giving people like myself the opportunity to rehabilitate and integrate back into society while removing the remnants of a past life. Throughout the last 12 months of my tattoo removal journey, I have felt nothing but supported by Amanda and the team at LaserTat. They make you feel like a human and not judged by your past. In my youth I made some poor choices, which found me in prison. Being out of prison and creating a new life for myself and my family, I knew it was important to remove some of my tattoos to keep moving forward. This wouldn’t have been possible if I didn’t have access to a program like this. As someone who has been given a fresh start, I cannot recommend and thank Amanda and her team enough.
I’ve been one of those people who has done one of the many beauty trends way before it was considered trendy, including having my brows micro-bladed … three times! Twice by the same technician and once by someone different. At the time I loved my brows but what I wasn’t prepared for was the different shades of ink throughout my brows – it was looking nasty. Then along came the more natural laminated look so I decided to take the plunge and get my brows lasered. I have seen LaserTat all the way through and they have been all kinds of amazing from being informative, to patient, supportive and professional. I’m absolutely stoked with the progress so far and even though I can see my 80’s brows more clearly now, I much prefer this look to the multi-coloured brows I had before. I cannot recommend LaserTat highly enough. Thank you!
I had my eyebrow tattoos (feathered) removed by Stacey. She was very thorough with my consultation and explained everything to me, which instantly eased my mind and made me feel confident to go through with the process. The treatment itself was great probably a 2/10 pain, was extremely fast and I instantly saw results. The store has a lovely welcoming feel to it while also living up to the clean medical standards you would expect. I’d highly recommend LaserTat to anyone looking for tattoo removal.
