5 Myths About Laser Tattoo Removal and the True Facts

It's no secret that laser tattoo removal is becoming one of the most popular business opportunities in many years. Tattoo studios everywhere are considering their options and weighing the cost of tattoo removal equipment purchases with the profits and seeing the worth in ownership.

Still, there are some myths that are being perpetuated about tattoo removal and lasers in particular. While only time and customer testimonials can dispel these untruths permanently, it is always wise to counter them as they are discovered.

Myth No. 1: Tattoo Removal Is Painful.

FACT:

Tattoo removal will cause you no more pain than having your tattoo did in the first place. Many customers liken the sensation to having an elastic snapped against your skin. Keeping in mind that most tattoo removal sessions last minutes, not the normal lengthy amounts of time some tattoo sessions can last, it becomes easy to understand that anyone who can get a tattoo, can withstand the marginal discomfort associated with having it removed via laser. Something else to consider are your options... creams that don't work, cost a lot, and take incredibly long amounts of time to even fade already faded work, or the more archaic, painful, and dangerous methods; which will not be named here.

Myth No. 2: Tattoo Removal Requires a Long Recovery Time

FACT:

Laser tattoo removal will offer you a shorter recovery time than getting your tattoo did. Sessions are typically spaced out over the course of several weeks to allow you the time to recover and allow the ink to disperse and fade. This in turn gives the certified removal specialist a chance to see how many more treatments you may need before your tattoo is fully removed from your skin.

Myth No. 3: Laser Tattoo Removal Will Leave Scars

FACT:

While this may have been true of lasers used for tattoo removal in the past, the current technology as exhibited in the Quanta Q Plus C and T laser removal system offers an experience that is free from scarring and skin damage of all kinds. A certified operator of the laser will know exactly how much time to devote to each of your removal sessions according to your specific tattoo, and your skin type, to avoid permanent damage to your skin.

Myth No. 4: My Tattoo Will Disappear After One Session of Laser Removal

FACT:

This is certainly not the case in every instance, however, if you have a very old, and already very faded tattoo, you may be able to minimize your sessions with the laser substantially. Incidences of one session completely removing the average tattoo are not the norm however and you should expect to spend at least 3 to 5 sessions before you see marked results in your tattoo.

Myth No. 5: Laser Tattoo Removal is Expensive

FACT:

Laser tattoo removal is as affordable, if not more so, than getting the tattoo was in the first place. If you can afford to get a tattoo, you can afford to have one removed. Reputable and reliable tattoo studios will allow you to make payments on your removals and come in for appointments according to your budget and ability to pay.

Jeff Goyette Bio

Jeff Goyette was born and raised in Massachusetts where tattooing was illegal, and to this day is only allowed on a per community basis, with each community deciding for themselves whether to allow it or not. Jeff still wanted to be a tattoo artist, and so learned his trade and took it on the road with the tattoo tour where he continued his tattoo education through coursework and tour experience.

In 1993 Jeff opened Inflicting Ink Tattoo Studio in Portsmouth RI as a way to get out of touring and establish some roots in the community. He has been in this location for 17 years. After a few years in the shop however, he wanted to use his traveling experience to be able to bring tattooing to people who might not have the chance to get to a brick-and-mortar shop.

So he built the Inflicting Ink Traveling Tattoo truck, over 73 feet of truck housing a state of the art, sterile, mobile tattoo facility ~ there is nothing else like it on the planet, literally, as the Guiness Book of World Records has named it the largest tattoo facility in the world, but simply has no category to place it in.

The truck travels to fairs, events, concerts, and even does private parties, drawing large crowds and those who do not have access to a local tattoo studio for their body art. Jeff loves when he can give back to a community, and often simply brings the truck to draw in numbers at charity events whenever possible, whether any tattooing will be done or not.

He and his artists model their work on the belief that a customer should always feel that they have received a quality piece of art, that the work is consistent, and that they can be proud of their tattoo as well as where it came from.
