Frequently Asked Questions:

How does laser tattoo removal work?
Laser energy is passed through the outer layer of the skin, directly targeting the tattoo ink. The laser disrupts the ink allowing your body's immune system to break it down and get rid of it naturally. Our lasers are very accurate and can safely remove just the unwanted parts of a tattoo.

Can a tattoo with several colors be removed?
We use state-of-the-art lasers and advanced techniques that can remove most ink colors. Certain tattoo inks in shades of green, yellow and sky blue are more difficult to remove.

Is there down time after treatment?
Most patients resume all activities soon after treatment. The treated area should be protected from sun exposure until the skin has healed.

How many treatments will I need?
There are several different factors involved in determining how many treatments your particular tattoo will require. Most tattoos require between 5 to 12 treatments to remove.

Does the treatment hurt? How long does it take?
Some discomfort may be experienced during this procedure. To make the process more comfortable, the doctor may apply an anesthetic (numbing) cream to the area before treatment. Treatments are typically completed in 2 to 10 minutes.

Will I have a scar?
Scarring is extremely rare with our state-of-the-art laser. However, scarring is a possibility in any medical procedure involving the skin. Following our doctor's aftercare instructions will greatly reduce your chances of scarring.
