What is tattoo removal?

Tattoo removal at Open Door Medical Clinic uses laser technology to remove unwanted tattoos. The treatment eliminates your tattoo permanently, regardless of its color, shape, and size. 

How does laser tattoo removal work?

Laser tattoo removal works by delivering laser energy pulses to your tattoo, breaking up ink pigment into smaller molecules that your body absorbs and eliminates. 

What are the benefits of tattoo removal?

The benefits of undergoing tattoo removal at Open Door Medical Clinic include:

Tattoo removal can help you achieve your cosmetic goals. Open Door Medical Clinic also offers skin rejuvenation, vaginal rejuvenation, laser hair removal, and similar aesthetic treatments. 

Who is a candidate for tattoo removal?

Anyone with an unwanted tattoo can benefit from laser tattoo removal. Open Door Medical Clinic offers various lasers to treat specific ink colors. 

While red and dark inks are often easiest to treat, the Open Door Medical Clinic team offers noticeable improvements after removing any type of unwanted tattoo. 

What can I expect during laser tattoo removal?

During laser tattoo removal treatment at Open Door Medical Clinic, you relax comfortably while your provider cleans the treatment area and numbs it to optimize comfort. You wear protective eyewear to keep your eyes protected from the laser.

Laser tattoo removal treatment is well-tolerated, although you may feel a light snapping sensation as laser energy penetrates your skin. The length of your treatment depends on the size of the areas containing ink pigment and the type of tattoo you’d like removed.

What happens after laser tattoo removal sessions?

There's no downtime after laser tattoo removal at Open Door Medical Clinic so that you can resume your daily activities immediately. 

Some tattoos might require 6-8 treatment sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart to achieve the best results. However, this will vary based on the type of tattoo you have. Some tattoos only require 3-4 treatment sessions.
