FAQ
How does laser tattoo removal work?
Using the Quanta Laser, the best laser available, a laser pulse is aimed at the tattoo and passes harmlessly through the skin. The laser targets the tattoo pigment, leaving the surrounding skin virtually untouched. The energy from the beam is transferred to the ink which breaks into small particles and is removed from the body by the immune system.
How many treatments does it take to remove a tattoo?
This is our most commonly asked question and the hardest to answer without seeing the tattoo, that is why we offer a FREE consultation to give you all the information you need to make your decision.
The average time to remove a professionally applied tattoo ranges from 9 months to 18 months. Some tattoos take longer, some come off faster.

How long do I need to wait between treatments?
Generally it takes about 5-8 weeks for the body to remove the ink and to completely heal the area.
Will laser treatments cause scarring?
The chances of scarring are very small (less than 5%) if all the after-care instructions are followed. These include:
- Avoid heat and sun
- Keep the treated area as dry as possible.
- Keep it clean and unbothered
- Monitor and care for the tattoo as instructed by the laser technician
- If you experience intense or prolonged swelling ice the area for 20 minutes increments.
- Stay healthy before and after treatments.
What is eyebrow/cosmetic tattoo removal?

How many sessions are required to remove an eyebrow tattoo.
For complete tattoo removal, most people need between three and ten treatments.
The number of treatments you’ll need depends on the size of the tattoo, the color of the original ink, and the type of ink used by your tattoo artist. (Permanent makeup inks are different than traditional tattoo inks).
