How quickly that you notice results from laser tattoo removal varies greatly from person to person. Tattoos fade at varying rates due to a number of factors from the color of the inks to the customers immune system and many other reasons. In this day of instant gratification and same day amazon deliveries; laser tattoo removal can be frustrating due to the length of time that it takes.

In Most cases , fading can be seen within a few weeks after the first laser session. However, with very dense, high quality inks the initial fading can be minimal and often not noticed until compared to your “before” picture.

These slow to fade tattoos will begin to fade dramatically after a few sessions, and often friends and family even start to notice that your tattoo is starting to fade away. The customer in this photo had a co-worker tell her that she needed to get her tattoo touched up! Be patient, give it time, and you will eventually see results.

That arm sleeve of tats seemed like a great idea when you were young and definitely going to make it as a rock star no matter what your mother said. Fifteen years later, you’re getting tired of wearing long sleeves to the office every day and sweaters whenever you have dinner with the in-laws.

Your life has changed. It’s easy enough to pack up your drum set, shave off the Mohawk and box up that leather jacket that drove the girls crazy. It’s a little harder to get your skin back, but not impossible.

At North Houston Laser Tattoo Removal, we specialize in wiping away the past and giving you a new start with your skin.

One of the most common questions we get from customers is, “how long does tattoo removal take?”

The answer depends on a number of factors, but in most cases it will require more than one treatment. The size of your tattoo, its age, and the amount of ink used will all affect how many treatments you’ll need. Obviously, smaller tattoos come off easier, as do simple line drawings that are not filled in with color.

To give you a sense, a black lettered tattoo will usually take around five treatments to remove. Larger tattoos, such as an arm sleeve may take up to fifteen treatments to remove. Warm colors like reds, oranges and yellows are easier to remove than cool colors like blues, purples and blacks, so that will also affect the number of treatments you’ll need.

If you want a more accurate estimate of how many sessions it will take to remove your tattoo, it’s best to stop by our shop so that we can take a look. Once we see your tattoo, we’ll be able to give you a relatively accurate assessment of how many treatments it will take to remove
