Tattoo Removal 101 🖤

Tattoo removal isn’t magic, it’s science.
Ink that’s been sitting in your dermis for years is stubborn. So when we hit it, your body clears what it can, and we repeat until there’s nothing left to clear.

Sunscreen is not a force field. 🧴☠️

We love a good SPF, but if you’re currently having laser hair removal (or tattoo removal) sessions, sunscreen alone is NOT doing enough heavy lifting.

This is why we require no sun exposure, tanning beds or sunless tanner for at least 2 weeks before your appointment AND 2 weeks after. For clients who tend to hold a tan, 2 weeks may not be enough time.

Here’s the truth: lasers target pigment. Sun exposure — even a little — increases melanin in your skin, which means more risk of burns, blistering, and hyperpigmentation during treatment. Sunscreen helps prevent new damage, but it doesn’t undo a tan you already have, and it can’t fully protect skin that’s already been sensitized by recent sun exposure.

What actually works:
🖤 Physical coverage (hats, clothing, shade) over treatment areas
🖤 Avoiding tanning beds entirely during your treatment series
🖤 Telling us if you’ve had sun exposure — we may need to reschedule
🖤 SPF as backup, not your only defense

Protect the investment you’re making in your skin. Your future self will thank you!

Not all tattoo removal methods deliver the same results—and choosing the right one matters. While options like saline, magnetic, or chemical-based treatments are often marketed as faster or more “natural,” they can come with limitations like scarring or incomplete removal. Laser tattoo removal remains the gold standard because it safely targets ink with precise wavelengths, breaking it down without damaging surrounding skin. Over time, your body naturally flushes away the fragmented pigment, leading to clearer, more effective results with minimal risk.

Sunglasses are great for the sun, but unfortunately they just can’t handle concentrated laser light. Our glasses are designed to absorb the wavelengths while still letting you see clearly — it’s protection you can actually trust 😎

Love your skin a little more this year💜

Laser works by targeting pigment in the hair follicle, helping slow regrowth over time. Because it treats multiple hairs at once, it’s especially popular for larger areas like legs, arms, underarms, chest, and back.

Winter is one of the best times to start laser treatments since sun exposure is usually lower and consistency is easier to maintain. But areas can still be treated if they remain out of the sun!

Not sure if laser is right for you? A complimentary consultation can help determine the best plan for your skin and hair type.

⚡️Can all tattoos be completely removed?
Not always 100% - but many can be significantly faded or nearly invisible. Results depend on ink colors, depth, age of the tattoo, and your skin type.

⚡️Why do I need to wait between sessions?
Your skin needs time to heal and your body needs time to flush out the broken-down ink. Waiting also reduces the risk of irritation and scarring.

⚡️Will it scar?
When performed properly and with good aftercare, scarring is uncommon. Pre-existing scars or picking at the area increase the risk.

⚡️Does it hurt?
Most people describe it like a rubber band snap or hot pinpricks. It’s quick, and numbing options can help keep you comfortable. We offer cold air to help with discomfort!

⚡️How many treatments will I need?
It varies - most tattoos take multiple sessions (often 6-10+). Factors include size, colors, placement, and how your body responds.

Microdermabrasion is a gentle exfoliation treatment that helps remove dead skin cells and reveal brighter, smoother skin underneath.

It’s great if your skin feels dull, rough, or congested - and it can help improve the look of uneven texture and tone over time. Many clients also notice their skincare products work better afterward.

This treatment has little to no downtime, making it an easy way to refresh your skin.

Perfect for maintenance or a glow-up boost✨🪩
