MEDLITE C-6 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

How does the laser remove a tattoo?

The MedLite laser produces a high-energy beam of light at four different wavelengths.  Each wavelength targets specific ink colors.  The energy from the laser beam passes through the skin and is absorbed by the tattoo ink.  The intense energy breaks down the ink, which is then gradually removed by the body’s natural filtering system.  The significantly improved beam profile of the MedLite C6 compared to previous generation lasers allows maximum energy to be delivered to the tattoo ink without damaging the surrounding tissue.   

How many treatments will it take to remove the tattoo?

A professional tattoo will require six to twenty treatments for removal.  Amateur tattoos, that use less ink and are not as deep, will require fewer treatments. The number of treatments will vary, depending on various factors including the type, amount, color, and depth of the tattoo ink.

Will the laser remove all colors?

Yes, the laser will remove all tattoo colors, but some colors are more difficult to remove than others.  Dark blue, black and red inks will fade faster than green, yellow, or sky blue inks.

Is laser tattoo removal painful?

Some people will experience a greater degree of discomfort than others.  We use a topical anesthetic and air cooler machine to minimize discomfort.

How much does tattoo removal cost?

Our mission is to make tattoo removal affordable. The size of your tattoo will determine the price.  We’ll give you a firm price when we see your tattoo.  There is no charge for the initial consultation.

Will the laser completely remove the tattoo?
