That tattoo on your lower back seemed like a good idea when you were eighteen (it was actually seventeen…but no one needs to know). Now that you’re older and much wiser, you’re not so proud of your tattoo anymore. In fact, you’re so self-conscious about it that you cringe whenever you wear a bathing suit or bend over, thus revealing the colorful evidence of your less-than-stellar teenage judgment.
No matter what the story might be behind your tattoo, you’re ready to move on with your life – and you want to leave your tattoo behind in the dust. Whether you need to get rid of an ex’s name or just aren’t that into butterflies anymore, laser tattoo removal is something that’s certainly intrigued you.
But how can you know if it’s really safe for you?
At Fountain of Youth Medical Spa in Victoria, Texas, Dr. Nhi Le and her licensed team of aesthetic professionals are committed to providing individuals with superior laser tattoo removal. The equipment at this prestigious medical spa (recently named the best medical spa in the region by Victoria Advocate) can effectively minimize and remove a tattoo of any size, shape, and color – and all with minimal discomfort and scarring.
Want to know how the laser tattoo removal procedure works? Take a look:
- Dr. Nhi Le or one of her aestheticians will have a consultation with you to determine how many treatments you’ll need to remove your tattoo. Not all tattoos are alike, which means that larger and more colorful tattoos will need more treatments than a small colorless tattoo. Additionally, the age of the tattoo will make a difference: a tattoo that’s recent will be easier to remove than an old tattoo, as the latter has ink that’s more embedded in the skin.
- After determining the number of sessions needed, you’ll undergo your first laser tattoo removal treatment. Patients should expect some pain during the initial treatment, but it’s not as painful as when it was initially inked. Dr. Nhi Le can also use numbing cream to help ease any discomfort you feel during the treatment.
After your treatment, you may experience some swelling and blistering in the treatment area. Some slight bleeding can also be expected. You’ll be given instructions by Dr. Nhi Le on how to care for the treated area. Laser treatments can be performed every six to eight weeks.
