How it works

What to expect

Four steps, from free consultation to results.

  1. Your first visit

    Step 1: Free consultation

    Scott examines your tattoo, explains laser tattoo removal in detail and answers your questions. No terms or conditions apply.

  2. Each session

    Step 2: Your treatment

    Short pulses of focused light break ink into smaller fragments for your body’s immune system to remove. A Zimmer cold-air system cools your skin to ease treatment.

  3. About 12 weeks apart

    Step 3: Between sessions

    Your treatments are about 12 weeks apart. No recovery time is needed; you can return to normal activities right away.

  4. After 1–2 sessions

    Step 4: Results

    Most people see initial results after 1 or 2 sessions. Fading for a cover-up usually takes 4–8 sessions; full removal, 8–10 or more.

Client reviews

What clients say

Olivia R. Google review

“I have been seeing Scott for a couple of years now. I did a lot of research before to figure out where I wanted to go, and the reviews do not lie here. Scott is very knowledgeable and HONEST. This is not a fun nor easy process, but I am so happy that I am going through it here.”

Jessica R. Google review

“Scott is fantastic. Super knowledgeable and professional. Doesn’t push you to do more treatments faster in order to just boost sales - he encourages clients to take their time so that they can actually get the best results for their tattoo removal.”

Victoria C. Google review

“I had a fantastic experience with Scott when I went in for an eyebrow tattoo removal. He was incredibly honest and kind, letting me know I didn’t actually need the full procedure and only worked on a small area. It’s rare to find someone who puts honesty above making a sale.”

Your questions

Clear answers

Is my consultation free?

Yes, your consultation is free. It’s a chance to understand your options. No terms or conditions apply.

How does laser treatment work?

Short pulses of focused energy at selected light wavelengths target tattoo ink beneath your skin. The laser breaks the ink into smaller fragments, which your body’s immune system removes.

How many treatments will I need?

Your session count depends on ink depth, tattoo age and colour intensity, from light shading to dense, dark ink. Generally, fading for cover-ups takes 4–8 sessions and full removal 8–10+ sessions, with most people seeing initial results after 1 or 2 sessions.

How far apart are treatments?

Your treatments are about 12 weeks apart. No recovery time is needed; you can return to normal activities without restrictions.
