ABOUT US.

Zippy’s Tattoo Removal is proudly owned by friends Jack Hamilton and Holly Carter, and operated by qualified laser technician and tattoo enthusiast, Holly. With over a decade of experience in the dermal and laser industries, Holly is passionate about delivering high-quality, results-driven tattoo removal treatments grounded in knowledge, care, and consistency.

Having firsthand experience with tattoo removal and fading, Holly understands the value of working alongside your tattoo artist to create the best treatment plan for your goals—whether that’s full removal or lightening for a cover-up. Her genuine, client-focused approach ensures every treatment is tailored to you.

At Zippy’s, we offer a comfortable, inclusive, and judgement-free space where you can feel supported through every stage of your removal journey. We believe in transparency—no gimmicky packages or hidden costs—just safe, affordable, and effective treatments.

"We saw a gap in the tattoo removal market for trusted, local alternatives that offer a more personal and community-focused experience than big corporate chains."

OUR MACHINES. 

At zippys we use the cynosure Medlite Q Switched Nd:YAG laser. this uses both a 1064nm wavelength (black & blue ink) as well as a 532nm wavelength (reds, oranges and brown inks) it delivers powerful, short pulses of light energy that safely breaks down tattoo ink without damaging the surrounding skin. We believe the key benefits of the Q Switch are they are effective on a wide range of ink colours- especially black and darker tones, it is safest on most skin types- with lower risk of pigmentation changes, is minimally invasive with little to no downtime, reduces scarring risk when performed by a trained professional and delivers proven results for both full removal and targeted fading.

We love it!
