Frequently Asked Questions

Does Laser Tattoo Removal Hurt?

Laser tattoo removal can be uncomfortable, but the level of pain varies from person to person.  The pain can also depend on the area of the body  that the tattoo is located.

See your pharmacist who can recommend a numbing agent prior to treatment.

How Long Does Each Session Take?

The length of time to complete a session will depend on the size and complexity of your tattoo. A session could take anywhere from 10 minutes for a small tattoo to 30 minutes for a larger tattoo.

Some larger tattoos cannot be completed in one session.

What Will Happen To My Eyebrow Hair during Microblading Removal?

When laser energy is used to remove ink from your skin, it can temporarily affect the melanin around your hair follicles, causing your brow hair to whiten. However, this whitening is not permanent, as facial hair will eventually return to its natural color due to the regular replacement of hairs.

How Many Session Will I Need to Remove My Tattoo?

Laser tattoo removal typically requires multiple sessions to achieve either partial or complete removal, depending on your desired outcome. If your goal is to lighten the tattoo enough for a cover-up, fewer sessions may be needed.

Since laser removal works in conjunction with your immune system, the number of sessions varies for each individual. The skill level of your tattoo artist also influences the removal process.

A patch test can give you a better idea of how effectively your tattoo will break down.

 

Will I Need A Patch Test?

Every new customer inquiring about tattoo removal will need to undergo a patch test. This includes an in-depth consultation to ensure you fully understand the tattoo removal process before moving forward.

Does Radio Frequency Microneedling Hurt?

Radio frequency microneedling might be uncomfortable in some spots, but it’s generally well-tolerated. The process is quick, and there’s no pain afterward.

What Is The Difference Between Standard Microneedling and Radio Frequency Microneedling?

Regular microneedling involves using tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving texture.

Radio frequency microneedling takes it up a notch by combining these tiny needles with radio frequency energy, heating the deeper layers of the skin. This enhances collagen production, leading to tighter, firmer skin and more dramatic results. The addition of radio frequency increases the benefits and effectiveness of standard microneedling.
