Laser Tattoo Removal In Sandy Springs
Don’t let an unwanted tattoo be a permanent mistake—our Q-Switched (1064nm/532nm) laser treatment can safely and effectively break down ink into small particles that your body will gradually remove. This laser system targets multiple ink colors with minimal risk, though complete removal may require several sessions depending on the ink type and tattoo age. It is particularly effective for black, blue, red, and pink ink, but all colors will experience some degree of fading as the treatments progress.

Purpose
Reduce or eliminate the visibility of tattoos using targeted laser therapy.
Treatment Length
The procedure takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the tattoo’s dimensions and the complexity of its pigmentation.
Post-Treatment Healing
Right after the procedure, the affected skin may turn white and feel tender. Over time, this will shift to redness and then scabbing, with the possibility of slight blistering, which is completely normal. Ensuring the area remains moisturized and avoiding sun exposure will help promote proper healing.
Are there risks?
When conducted by our experienced professionals, laser tattoo removal is generally a safe treatment option. However, it is important to acknowledge that, like any cosmetic procedure, there are possible side effects. Some patients may notice temporary redness, swelling, or tenderness at the treatment site. In certain cases, minor skin discoloration can develop, especially in individuals with naturally darker skin, as the laser interacts with the tattoo ink. Choosing a professional laser tattoo removal service helps mitigate these risks and ensures a precise, safe, and effective removal process with minimal complications.
Does Treatment Provide Complete Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal helps diminish the visibility of unwanted tattoos, though full removal depends on factors like tattoo size, ink color, and pigment depth in the skin. Some areas may require multiple treatment sessions for the best outcome.
We use advanced laser techniques that deliver effective results, though response times vary. Keep in mind that certain ink colors, particularly lighter ones, may fade at a slower rate.
