- Who does the procedure? Here at Erase, we only have medical professionals do the laser tattoo removal procedures. We believe that having a medical professional, such as Dr. Justin Macariola, do the procedures gives the client confidence it will be done right; it is the best solution for the client. Some tattoo removal studios settle for having estheticians perform the procedures but we believe in trying harder.
- Who is eligible for laser tattoo removal? Any skin tone, age, or gender is able to get a laser tattoo removal procedure; however, there are some cases where we advise against it.
- Pregnant or nursing women. This broken up ink can make its way into the unborn child via umbilical cord or into the born child via breast milk. When you get this procedure, the ink is broken up and removed from the skin via the immune system.
- Any client with uncontrolled diabetes.
- Anyone with new tattoos from within the last couple months (2 months). The skin is not ready for a procedure like this so soon after getting a tattoo.
- Smokers are able to get it but they might require more sessions to get the tattoo removed since their skin is not as healthy; your skin needs to be healthy to endure the procedures at their current length of time.
- We should note that the procedures are conducted using an Asclepion TattooStar Effect Laser and so this laser can tackle a lot of tattoo cases.
- How long does it take to remove a tattoo? Depending on the size, location, and color(s) of the tattoo that is to be removed, the removal process can take between 5 & 12 sessions; there are breaks of 6-8 weeks between each removal session. On average, a tattoo takes a year to remove. If you qualify for the R20 procedure then you will take less time since this procedure essentially combines four traditional sessions into one; your amount of sessions is drastically reduced.
- Does it hurt? Depending on your pain tolerance, it will hurt more for some and less for others; bottom line, it will have discomfort. Although, at Erase, we have cooling tools to reduce the pain and make each client comfortable during the procedure.
