About Laser Tattoo Removal

LaserAway offers customized laser tattoo removal designed to fade or remove ink safely, effectively, and predictably.

Every treatment plan is tailored to your tattoo’s size, color, age, and placement, with licensed medical professionals guiding each session. Whether you’re clearing space for new artwork or removing a tattoo entirely, our approach focuses on skin safety, consistent fading, and long-term results.

  • Melissa Riso
    "I got my 7th Laser Tattoo Removal done and the tattoo has faded so much, I'm excited to see the results! They numb you so it's painless and I'm not left with more scars because they are so careful, especially with tan skin like mine."

Tattoo Removal Options

Choosing between full removal or fading? LaserAway offers both. Here's what to consider:

Full Tattoo Removal treatment area

Full Tattoo Removal

Designed to remove all visible ink so the area appears clear over time.

Best for:

  • Black or dark ink
  • Older tattoos
  • Patients who want the tattoo completely gone

Tattoo Cover Up treatment area

Tattoo Cover Up

Lightens existing ink to create a clean canvas for new artwork.

Best for:

  • Updating or redesigning a tattoo
  • Reducing bold outlines or dark shading
  • Fewer sessions than full removal, in many cases

*Results and patient experience may vary depending on tattoo location, age, and color, skin pigmentation of the patient, and other factors. We do not offer tattoo removals on the face.

Your Laser Tattoo Removal Journey, Start to Finish

Your complete guide to how Laser Tattoo Removal works, how to prepare, and what to expect.

Your Laser Tattoo Removal Appointment

Your experience starts with a free consultation. Your clinician evaluates your tattoo and builds a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.

During treatment:

  • Advanced cooling technology helps keep skin comfortable
  • The laser delivers fast, precise pulses to break down ink
  • Sessions typically last under one hour

Most patients describe the sensation as quick snaps against the skin.

After treatment:

  • Mild redness, swelling, or warmth is normal
  • Side effects fade within a few days
  • No downtime is required

With each session, your tattoo gradually fades as your body clears the pigment.

How to Prepare for Laser Tattoo Removal

To ensure safe, effective results:

  • Avoid tanning, sunburns, and self-tanners for at least two weeks prior.
  • Always apply SPF to the treatment area when exposed to sunlight.
  • Skip harsh products like scrubs, retinols, and chemical peels that can irritate the skin.
  • Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotion, and sunscreen.

Your LaserAway clinician will review personalized pre-care instructions during your consultation to make sure your treatment is safe, effective, and comfortable from start to finish.

What To Do Before Your Appointment What To Do After Your Appointment

How Laser Tattoo Removal Works

LaserAway uses FDA-cleared laser technology to safely break down tattoo ink while protecting surrounding skin.

  • Precision laser pulses target tattoo pigment beneath the skin
  • Ink particles shatter into tiny fragments
  • Your body clears the ink naturally over time
  • Custom settings based on ink color, size, depth, and skin tone
  • Integrated cooling improves comfort and supports healing

With each session, the tattoo fades progressively until it’s lightened for a cover-up or fully removed, depending on your goals.

Common Questions

  • Which lasers do you use?
    The most common type of laser used in tattoo removal, the Q-switched (quality switched), produces dual wavelength light pulses of extremely high peak power. Because Q-switch lasers are so precise and intense, tattoo pigments fragment instantly, and the surrounding tissue is left undamaged.
  • Are LaserAway treatments FDA-approved?
    Yes. Laser tattoo removal treatments at LaserAway use FDA-cleared technology and are performed by licensed medical professionals.
  • Does laser tattoo removal work on all ink colors?
    Yes, though it may yield different results. In general, older tattoos that have darker pigments tend to be easier to remove. Newer professional tattoos that have bright, colorful pigments will permanently fade but may not fully remove.
  • Can tattoos be treated anywhere on the body?
    Laser tattoo removal can be performed on most areas of the body, depending on skin condition and tattoo placement.
  • How many treatments will I need?
    You’ll need several treatments before you’ll notice a significant difference. The number of treatments you’ll need depends on the amount and type of ink used and how deeply it sits. Keep in mind it takes a minimum of eight weeks between treatments for your body to absorb the pigment residue.
  • How long does it take to see results?
    It depends on the size, depth, and color of the tattoo, but most patients start to see fading within a couple weeks after their first treatment. Keep in mind that multiple treatments are typically needed to achieve the desired result, with a minimum of eight weeks between each.
  • Will laser tattoo removal leave a scar?
    It is very rare for patients to scar from laser tattoo removal treatments. But if a tattoo already features pre-existing scarring, that will remain.
  • Does tattoo size affect laser tattoo removal?
    Yes. Larger tattoos usually require longer sessions and more treatments, while smaller tattoos can often be treated more quickly.
  • Can laser tattoo removal completely remove my tattoo?
    Depending on the color and age of the tattoo, laser tattoo removal can produce dramatic results after multiple sessions and often removes all or almost all of the tattoo entirely.
  • Am I a good candidate for laser tattoo removal?
    Laser tattoo removal can fade and remove most tattoos safely and effectively. In general, older tattoos that have darker pigments tend to be easier to remove. Newer professional tattoos that have bright, colorful pigments will permanently fade but may not fully remove. Patients who don’t smoke and follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen tend to achieve faster results.
  • Will I experience any side effects?
    You may experience minor bleeding, redness, swelling and blistering for several hours or days following treatment. Over the next several weeks, you may notice the treated area flaking, peeling and scabbing. Handle the treatment site gently. While the site is healing, you should avoid sun exposure and public swimming pools. Tell your clinician if any side effects bother you and are not subsiding.
