Tattoos are an attractive, creative, and appealing way to self-express. However, just because you once loved your tattoo and what it stands for doesn’t mean that symbolism or image will always fit your life from then on. Therefore, you might find yourself wanting to have a tattoo removed. The following is everything you need to know about that procedure:
What Is Tattoo Removal?
The type of tattoo removal we do is with a laser, so it’s not a horrid experience that cuts the skin and leaves scarring behind. Instead, we use lasers to break up the pigment of the tattoo, which will remove it from your skin, all without harming or damaging the skin that surrounds the area. We use the PicoSure laser, which utilizes innovative technology to remove the tattoo virtually pain-free from the area.
Why You Might Consider a Tattoo Removal
Just as the reason you got your tattoo was individual and personal, the reason for removal can be equally personal. It could be because a relationship ended, and you’d like that reminder removed. It could represent a memory that is now too painful to be reminded of, or it could have nothing to do with the deeper meaning and simply be because the tattoo is faded and doesn’t look great anymore. Regardless of the reason, tattoo removal is now possible thanks to this laser procedure.
Laser Tattoo Removal Takes Several Treatments
Tattoo removal isn’t an instant procedure. In many cases, you will need several laser treatments, spaced out in six to 12-week increments, to completely remove the tattoo. At least six treatments are usually necessary to achieve the desired results.
The Treatments Aren’t Too Painful
Laser tattoo removal treatments are not too painful. It is often compared to the feeling a snapping rubber band makes against your skin. In addition, we use a numbing cream as well. The added numbing cream will eliminate any discomfort even further. Laser removal is way less intrusive and painful than other removal methods, making it a preferable option.
