Laser Tattoo Removal FAQs
Additional Information
- Common Questions:
- How many sessions will I need for laser tattoo removal? The number of sessions required for laser tattoo removal varies for each individual. There's no fixed number of treatments. On average, complete removal typically takes between 8 to 10 sessions, while significant fading may be achieved in 3 to 4 sessions. Several factors impact the number of sessions needed, including:- Age and size of the tattoo- Location of the tattoo on the body- Ink colors and density- Depth of ink and pre-existing scarring- Individual health factors
- What's discussed during the consultation? Prior to treatment, every client undergoes a consultation to discuss their goals, whether it's complete removal, fading for a cover-up, or selective removal of specific parts of the tattoo. The laser technician explains the procedure, how the laser works, and provides aftercare instructions for optimal results. Additionally, the cost of the treatment plan is discussed.
- What laser is used for tattoo removal? We use the powerful Astanza Duality Signature Nd:YAG laser. The Duality Signature is known for its versatility and power, employing two wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm) to target a broad range of tattoo ink colors.
- Is the treatment painful? How long does it last? Pain levels vary depending on your individual tolerance, but most people describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snap. Treatment durations range from seconds to minutes, depending on the tattoo's size and location.
- How long until complete tattoo removal? Achieving complete tattoo removal requires multiple sessions spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart for optimal healing. The duration varies depending on factors such as tattoo complexity and individual healing rates. Some clients may achieve full removal within months, while others may take up to a year.
- How does laser removal aid in cover-up preparation? Laser tattoo removal facilitates cover-up tattoos by fading down the existing tattoo, creating a cleaner canvas for the artist. This process typically requires a few sessions to achieve optimal lightening results.
- Are there any side effects? Laser tattoo removal is a safe, non-invasive procedure, with common side effects including temporary redness, itching, swelling, or scabbing. Clients with darker skin tones may experience temporary discoloration around the treated area, which resolves over time. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to help make sure the skin heals properly post-treatment.
