How to Speed Up Tattoo Removal

After your laser tattoo removal consultation, you may wonder if there are ways to speed up your tattoo removal process. The answer is: rather than speeding the process up by following specific practices, there are some steps you can take to ensure it doesn’t take longer to remove than you or our Certified Laser Tattoo Removal Specialist expect. Keep reading to learn how to stay on schedule for your tattoo removal process

Listen To Your Certified Laser Tattoo Removal Specialist’s Instructions

One of the most important things you can do to stay on schedule is listen to the guidance of your Certified Laser Tattoo Removal Specialist. They may give you specific instructions based on how each treatment goes, your particular needs, and other small details they may notice. It’s also important to listen to their instructions to prepare for each appointment, which can help save additional time before, during, and after your treatment sessions.

Even with specific instructions, there is some generalized guidance you can use to help you stay on schedule for your tattoo removal.

Avoid Prolonged Sun Exposure and Protect Your Skin With Sunscreen

Another way to stay on track for your tattoo removal is to avoid prolonged sun exposure whenever possible, especially after you start your treatments. The area where we use the laser can be susceptible to more sun damage than other areas of your skin, and being in the sun for too long can cause the area to take longer to heal, increasing the time between treatments. If you go out, use sunscreen to protect the treatment area and the rest of your skin. This crucial step helps ensure you’re ready for every appointment with us.

 Attend Your Scheduled Removal Sessions

Going to all your prescheduled tattoo removal sessions is an excellent way to stay on track with your tattoo removal. Missing an appointment or trying to attend appointments too frequently can slow down how fast you receive treatments and heal respectively, adding to the time it takes to remove your tattoo altogether.

 Avoid Scratching the Treatment Area

A final way to help remain on schedule for your tattoo removal is to avoid scratching at the treatment area. When you scratch at the treatment area, you can cause additional damage to the area, making it take longer to heal over time. Letting it heal naturally and ignoring any itchiness can help the area recover quickly, allowing you to receive your treatments with little issue. This process helps ensure we can remove your tattoo as soon as possible.
