Dallas Tattoo Removal Blog

Lynette Kennedy, FNP, CLS was recently featured in Nurse Week, the leading magazine for the nursing community, for her work in laser tattoo removal.

The article, entitled “Nurse Works to Change Perception of Tattoos”, interview Ms. Kennedy and discussed both how common tattoos are in modern times as well as how they are in demand to be removed. “Even while their power was out due to Hurricane Ike, we had daily calls from clients who wanted to start [removing their tattoos]”, Kennedy said.

Ms. Kennedy also presented the case for Dallas, Texas tattoo removal patients to visit her speciality clinic - New Look Laser Tattoo Removal. New Look uses a laser designed specifically to remove dermal pigmentation - such as tattoo ink- unlike many plastic surgery centers that use one laser incorrectly to perform several different procedures. “Lots of clinics use whatever laser they have for hair removal and other procedures, but those. . . can burn.”

The length of your visit at New Look Laser Tattoo Removal in Dallas depends on if you are new or follow-up patient and how big your tattoo is. If you are scheduled for a consultation then you will be scheduled for a thirty minute time slot. Most clients do not take 30 minutes for a consultation (most are about 10 minutes long) but this will give you plenty of time to get all of your questions answerd and do a first treatment if you would like to. We tend to schedule appointments every thirty minutes. Most treatments do not take that long but if you are someone with multiple tattoos or one big one then we may schedule you for up to one hour for your laser tattoo removal session. Most treatments take 2 to 20 minutes depending on the size. It is very important to us that we have plenty of time to give you the best treatment and the most information that we can.

Healing time after laser tattoo removal is very quick. Most of the healing takes place within the first 72 hours and is complete during the first week to two weeks following your first tattoo removal treatment. As you progress in your treatments the healing is quicker and quicker because your tattoo has less and less ink each time you come in. The density of the ink in your tattoo plays a big role in the amount of tissue injury so as the density decreases, there is less that is breaking up into smaller peices and cause a small amount of injury to the tissue.

The majority of our clients come in for their laser treatment straight from work and then head right back. Our clients who work out daily are able to do that as well the same day with minimal tenderness to the area that was treated. The certified laser specialist will be able to give you more information on this topic during you consultation. our FAQ page will provide some additional information on laser tattoo removal as well.
