Tattoo Removal

What is Tattoo Removal & How Does It Work?

Tattoo removal is a specialized medical procedure aimed at either eliminating or lightening tattoos and permanent makeup. At JAG Medical Spa, we utilize cutting-edge laser treatment technology as an effective means of achieving this. The process begins with the state-of-the-art laser breaking down the tattoo ink particles located beneath the skin's surface. Once these particles are fragmented, the body's natural processes come into play, working to flush out these broken-down ink particles over time. As this natural elimination takes place, the tattoo gradually fades.

It's important to understand that the success of tattoo and permanent makeup removal methods can vary significantly based on various factors, including the size of the tattoo, the colors of ink used, the individual's skin type, and the tattoo's age. Consulting with our team of experts is essential for a thorough evaluation, which will help determine the most suitable removal method for your specific case. Additionally, managing expectations regarding the outcome and potential side effects is a key part of the process. Through the use of laser treatment, we provide individuals with a method to address unwanted tattoos with effective, long-lasting results.

What to Expect - Does Tattoo Removal Hurt?

When considering tattoo removal, understanding what to expect during and after the process is essential.

Before the procedure, our expert technicians will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your tattoo. Factors such as the colors of ink used, your skin type, and the location of the tattoo are all carefully considered. This evaluation ensures that the most appropriate laser treatment method is selected to best suit your unique case.

During the tattoo removal process, you may experience a sensation akin to a rubber band snapping against your skin. This sensation, often described by most clients as tolerable, is a result of the laser breaking down the ink particles beneath the skin. For those who may have concerns about discomfort, we offer various numbing options to enhance your comfort and minimize any potential pain.

After your tattoo removal session, following our aftercare instructions diligently is crucial. These guidelines may include keeping the treated area clean, avoiding sun exposure, and refraining from activities that could irritate the skin. Proper healing and optimal results are dependent on adhering to these detailed instructions. This comprehensive approach ensures that your tattoo removal experience is as comfortable and successful as possible, leaving you with the clear, ink-free skin you desire.

Cautions & Indications

Tattoo removal, particularly when conducted through laser treatment, is generally recognized as a safe and established procedure. However, there are vital cautions and indications to keep in mind:

1. Skin Type: Different skin types can react differently to tattoo removal treatments. Some skin types may respond more effectively than others. It's essential to have your skin evaluated by our experts to determine the most suitable approach for your specific case. This personalized assessment helps ensure that the treatment aligns precisely with your skin type, maximizing its effectiveness and minimizing potential risks.

2. Multiple Sessions: It's important to understand that complete tattoo removal often requires several sessions. These sessions are typically spaced several weeks apart to allow your skin to heal properly between treatments. This approach is designed to ensure that your skin remains healthy and unharmed during the removal process. Multiple sessions are often necessary to achieve optimal results and fully eliminate the tattoo.

By taking these cautions and indications into consideration, individuals can confidently pursue tattoo removal, knowing that the treatment is customized to their skin type and that the recommended multiple sessions are designed to achieve the best possible outcome while prioritizing skin health and safety.

How Much Does It Cost?

The average cost of tattoo removal is between $150-$600 and it is influenced by several key factors. These factors include the size of the tattoo, the colors of ink used, and the number of sessions needed to achieve the desired results.

During your consultation with our experts, you can expect to receive a personalized quote tailored specifically to your unique tattoo removal process. This personalized evaluation takes into account the specific characteristics of your tattoo and your individual requirements.
