What to Expect at Your First Tattoo Removal Appointment

If you’re getting ready to get a tattoo removed and you’re doing preliminary research or have already scheduled an appointment, knowing what to expect when you go in can help to create a better experience. While there’s nothing scary about these appointments, it can be intimidating to face the unknown, especially when it comes to body modifications. At La Belladonna Studio, our team is committed to creating the best tattoo removal experiences for our clients, which is why we’ve put together a short guide on what to expect during your first tattoo removal appointment.

Consultation

During your first appointment, our tattoo removal specialist will start off by welcoming you and getting to know you and your goals for your tattoo removal service. Whether you’re simply making more room for new art or you’re getting rid of a tattoo you no longer love, it’s important to us that we understand what you’re looking for with this service. We’ll also explain to you the process of tattoo removal to set expectations and come up with a treatment plan.

Cleaning & Prepping Treatment Area

Once we’re on the same page as you for your tattoo removal service goals, we’ll get started on the process, beginning with cleaning the area that’s going to be treated. During this time, we’ll also prep the area to ensure that your treatment is successful and is less susceptible to negative effects afterward like infection.

Laser Treatment

After preparation, it’s time for treatment. The laser tattoo removal treatment tool is directed precisely at the tattoo that you want removed and will emit short bursts of light that’s intense enough to break down the ink particles within your skin. During this process, you may feel a mild stinging sensation, or something similar to the snapping of a rubber band. Depending on the size and complexity of your tattoo, treatment time may vary.

Aftercare and Follow Up Scheduling

At the end of your appointment, your tattoo removal specialist will explain to you the steps to take for aftercare and will work with you to schedule your next appointments to ensure that treatment completely removes the tattoo!
