Tattoo Removal

Regret your tattoo? Consider having it permanently removed. Tattoo removal with lasers is a safe and effective procedure that will permanently get rid of your unwanted ink.

Though tattoos were once considered more permanent, new laser treatments can now break up the ink particles embedded in your skin. This treatment is much more effective than previous methods, which involved techniques like dermabrasion that could scar or damage the skin.

Some cells (or layers) in your skin don’t move or grow over time. When you get a tattoo, a needle places ink deep within these skin layers. These skin cells then absorb—or eat up—the tattoo ink, causing the ink to stay in your skin for years, or in theory, forever.

Pigment gives a tattoo its color. Lasers attack the pigment particles within those cells, causing the particles to break up into small pieces. Your cells will then naturally remove the pigment particles from your body.

Is Laser Tattoo Removal for You?

Look around at how many people have tattoos. Just as many of those people may end up thinking they should have done something different and would like their tattoo altered, changed, or removed. This is where tattoo removal (or tattoo reduction) comes into play.

Reasons patients may want a tattoo removed include:

• new job requirements,
• misspelled text,
• tattoo regret, or
• just growing bored of the tattoo. 

Schedule a Consultation

Before you can get your tattoo removed, you will need to schedule a consultation first. During your consultation, our providers will discuss:

• your expectations,
• whether you're a candidate for the procedure, and
• a treatment timeline.
