Will the tattoo disappear completely?
ANSWER
Often times it will. Under optimum conditions, up to 97% of the fading of the tattoo can be accomplished. However, since the doctor cannot know the exact specifics on the ink used, how deep the ink is below the skin, and how much was used; it is impossible to predict the exact degree of removal of any specific tattoo.
Some ink colors respond better than others. Dark blue/ black inks typically respond and fade very well. Purple and orange inks also fade very well. Green and yellow inks are the most difficult to remove.

Is laser tattoo removal painful?
ANSWER
Most patients do not find the procedure painful and the majority do not require any type of anesthesia. But a topical or local anesthetic may be used to minimize any discomfort. Some people describe the procedure as similar to having tiny specs of hot bacon grease on the skin or perhaps as if being snapped a bit by a very thin rubber band.
How many treatment sessions will I need?
ANSWER
This is a difficult question to answer specifically since every patient is a bit different. However, Between 3 to 12 treatments, at about one month intervals, will be necessary. The number of treatments depends on many variables, type of ink used, depth of the ink under the skin and the patient’s skin type and condition. It is rare that more than 8 treatments are necessary.
The procedure itself takes from about 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the tattoo and the location.
