Common Tattoo Removal Concerns

June 6, 2017 By Dr. Aldridge

We like to be as transparent as possible with our patients, explaining our tattoo removal practice in Sherman Oaks, CA in full detail, shedding light on any lingering questions and concerns about any step in the process.

What is the cost of tattoo removal?

Cost will always vary because the idea is that no two tattoos are the same. No two bodies handle the process in exactly the same way. Multiple procedures will be necessary to remove your tattoos. Unfortunately, tattoo removal is generally not covered by insurance.

TattooRemovers.ink can promise you one thing: you will get the safest, most medically-advanced care at the most competitive and reasonable rates in the area. We’ll set out a treatment and pricing structure that works for you, fits your budget, and gives you the most effective treatment possible.

How long will it take to remove my tattoo?

This is another situation where it can vary from case to case. It’s a good idea to plan ahead. If you want to remove a tattoo for a wedding, it’s a good idea to plan well ahead, because the tattoo removal process relies on time and the body’s own natural healing processes. It’s safe to say that a patient will generally need 4 to 6 sessions in order to achieve desired results. It’s also important to wait the minimum of 6 weeks between laser tattoo removal treatments. You don’t want to stack treatments and put undue stress on your body’s healing process. Of course, the amount of time necessary to spend between sessions will depend on the individual. TattooRemovers.ink custom tailors our tattoo removal treatments to fit the individual.

Is the process going to be painful?

Generally, there will be will be sensations during the laser tattoo removal process. That may involve some level of discomfort or pain. Generally, the treatments are said to be less painful than patients expect them to be, by and large. Tattoo removal has come a long way since the old days, when invasive treatments like excision, TCA (Trichloroacetic acid) treatments, dermabrasion and salabrasion, and even cryosurgery, most of which leaving behind scarring. These processes are often painful and come with some risk attached. Laser tattoo removal is a far more precise and effective method of tattoo removal without resorting to surgery.

Will my laser tattoo removal leave a scar?

It is highly unusual for laser tattoo removal to leave a scar, though improper aftercare can certainly increase a patient’s risk of irritating blisters and scabs that are natural to the process. Patients with a history of keloids might be genetically predisposed to scarring, which is why it’s important to TattooRemovers.ink to know your medical history before we start treatment.

Can I use TattooRemovers.ink to revise my tattoos?

Patients who don’t want their tattoos completely removed, but, rather, want a specific selection from the tattoo removed, then we can accommodate this request. You can erase part of a larger piece to make room for new, more relevant body art. It’s important that we discuss your laser tattoo removal and aesthetic enhancement goals with TattooRemovers.ink during your initial consultation. From there we will custom tailor our tattoo removal program to fit your unique needs.

Am I going to experience side effects?

You can expect to experience one or some combination of the following side effects:

Redness

Tenderness

Blistering / Swelling

Scabs

Bruising

Hyperpigmentation / Hypopigmentation

These side effects are temporary. Of course, if these symptoms do not subside within a day or two maximum, consult with TattooRemovers.ink. It’s important to discuss side effects and aftercare ahead of time, in order to maximize healing and ensure that you enjoy lasting results.
