It is not unusual to regret getting a tattoo years after the final inking. Maybe something in the design has become associated with bad memories, or you got the initial tattoo when you were not thinking clearly; it’s also possible that you like the tattoo but have found that it’s limited your job prospects. Whatever the case, if you want laser tattoo removal in OKC, our team can help you.
You’ll Need a Consultation
You can’t just walk in and get your first laser tattoo removal treatment immediately, and for good reason. The technician needs to see the tattoo and create a plan for which parts to work on and when; the treatment might cover all of a small tattoo at once, or you could have to tackle a larger tattoo piece by piece. The technician also needs to see the colors of ink that are involved as some require fewer treatments to remove than others.
The technician will also evaluate how deep the tattoo ink appears to go, as well as gathering information about how long you’ve had the tattoo. With that knowledge, the technician can give you an idea of roughly how many treatments you might need.
When you come in for your first treatment, you’ll undergo a small test first. This is akin to the type of patch test you might do yourself when you use a new cosmetic or skin cream for the first time. Chances are you’ll be fine; the test is to ensure there are no surprises.
You’ll See Progress After Every Treatment
While every tattoo’s treatment plan is different — even separate tattoos on the same person — one thing is for sure: You’ll see progress after each laser tattoo removal treatment. The ink and design will appear lighter. You may even want to take pictures of the site after each treatment so that you can see how much progress you’ve made.
