Description of service

This was the removal of a tattoo I have had for almost 5 years but lately I found it obnoxious there on my arm. The service was using laser and I paid a total of 180USD including all taxes and charges. Thankfully the tattoo did not have light colors and I came to know that was the reason the removal service was on the less expensive side.


Review of Service

No matter what some say, tattoo removal using laser is definitely not as painful as tattooing itself. The procedure was relatively short, the doctor and his staff were more than compassionate and very jovial in his approach. He started of a conversation to take my anxiety of the entire procedure. It was done in two sittings actually because initially I began to have certain exaggerated sensations on removal. I was explained of the procedure very well.


Tips

Always go only for laser guided removal and not some other removal techniques even if they are cheaper. You would not like to play with this believe me. Also, if you have darker tattoos like mainly of black and dark brown or blue, then it is comparatively easier to remove as per the doctors. Dark green takes a bit longer time and light colors may not be removed in totality. Hope you have not used lighter colors on yours.
