How To Prepare For Tattoo Removal

Tattoo removal is a safe and effective process that uses state of the art technology to provide amazing results, but there ARE risks involved. In order to minimize the chance of any adverse side effects, here is a list of what NOT to do in the days and weeks leading up to your treatment. 
  • AVOID prolonged sun exposure - it is important to stay out of the sun in the days leading up to your treatment and stay out of those tanning beds. Having tanned skin beyond your natural skin tone will preclude treatment for up to two weeks. You should always wear sunscreen (at least SPF 30) when you are in the sun, both before and after treatment. 
  • NO spray tans - the area to be treated should be free of ALL lotions, makeup, or other topical products the day of treatment. 
  • Do NOT get a laser treatment while on antibiotics. You need to wait at least 14 days after your last dose, and it is important to always be honest with us about your medications to avoid negative side effects.
  • NO brand NEW tattoos! Unfortunately we cannot treat an undesired tattoo until it is fully healed. You have to wait EIGHT weeks after getting a tattoo to begin the laser removal process.
  • DO NOT use removal creams! These are ineffective and are very harmful to your skin. If you do try them, you need to wait 8 weeks after your last use before a laser treatment to avoid damaging your skin.

It is important to be honest with your technician before you get a laser tattoo removal treatment about your sun exposure, medications, and medical conditions. This is vital to  ensure that you do not experience negative side effects and have the best removal process possible.

Laser energy directs on the tattooed areas without giving any harm to outer skin layer and absorbs by the ink of tattoo resulting in the removal of the tattoo.
