How are tattoos removed?
The laser uses an intense beam of light attracted to the pigment in the ink. The
laser then fragments the ink into tiny particles. This allows the body to clear out
the ink fragments thus, lightening the tattoo.
Is the process painful?
The laser emits light in very short flashes called pulses. The impact of the energy
from these powerful pulses may be uncomfortable, but the majority of patients do
not require anesthesia.
How many treatment sessions will it take?
The number of treatments depends on the chemicals in the ink, the depth of the
ink in the skin, and individual health considerations. Number of treatments is
determined during your free consultation. All treatments are spaced 10 weeks apart.
How much will it cost?
Pricing starts as low as $100 per treatment, however, pricing is based on the size
and intricacy of the tattoo, and will be quoted at your FREE consultation.
Do all colors of ink disappear equally as well?
No, dark (blue/black) inks and red inks fade the best. Oranges and purples usually
respond well. Green, light teal/sky blue and yellow inks are the most difficult to
remove, although additional treatments can produce satisfactory results.
