Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Tattoo Removal & Important Information

Q: How long does it take before a tattoo is removed by a laser removal treatment?

A: Laser tattoo removal technology is effective, but it can take several hours depending on the size of the tattoo. Most laser tattoo removal machines are designed to provide a one-hour treatment time. If you have several tattoos or simply want the treatment done quickly, this may not the option for you.

 

Q: Are there any risks associated with a laser tattoo removal?

A: The main risk involved with using a laser tattoo removal machine is the amount of heat that is used. The machine is designed to emit short bursts of high intensity light, which will cause the top layers of skin to quickly turn white and fade away.

 

Q: Will the results of my laser tattoo removal be permanent?

A: The results are permanent, although there may be some differences in how the final result looks like over time, depending on your skin tone, ink color and other factors.

You may want to call several Long Island tattoo removal studios before choosing one to visit. Make sure that you ask questions about the aesthetic practice and methods each offers.

Do your research and select a laser tattoo removal studio that has a proven track record of stellar results.

 

A professional laser tattoo removal studio will offer a money-back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied with the results of the first treatment. In addition, be sure to ask what type of aftercare is used to maintain the pigment levels of the skin. Some laser tattoo removal sessions can cause the skin to become irritated or even cause it to scar. Choose the aftercare procedures carefully. If your chosen artist neglects to provide proper aftercare instructions, you may not be happy with the results of your laser tattoo removal session.
