Consultation Policy
Our consultations are customized to each individual and their unique tattoo removal needs. Factors such as the tattoo’s age, color, depth, ink type, and your specific skin type are carefully evaluated to provide an accurate assessment of your tattoo removal journey. During the consultation, we will discuss your tattoo’s unique characteristics and what you can expect throughout the removal process.
Tattoo Removal Process Overview
Laser tattoo removal is a multi-step process that varies from person to person. The industry average for complete tattoo removal is between 5 and 12 sessions, depending on several factors. These include:
- The age of the tattoo (older tattoos may fade more quickly).
- The colors used (certain pigments like green and blue can take longer to remove).
- The depth of the ink in the skin. (below the Epidermis vs. Dermis; ink blowout)
- The type of ink used (professional vs. amateur tattoos).
- Skin type and the body’s natural healing response.
- The location of the tattoo (tattoos closer to the heart often heal faster due to better circulation).
It is important to note that while many tattoos fall within the 5-12 session range, some may require fewer or additional sessions based on the above variables. Additionally, visible fading occurs gradually over the course of multiple treatments, as the body’s immune system works to eliminate ink particles broken down by the laser.
