Why results vary.
Every tattoo is different. Two tattoos that look similar can fade at different speeds because of how much ink was used, how deep it sits, the colors involved and where it is on the body.
- In progress. Current clients part way through treatment, showing how much fading happens session by session.
- Complete removal. Tattoos treated until the ink is gone or nearly gone.
- Corrections. Sometimes we fix smaller issues like blowouts, unwanted shapes and stray lines.
At your consultation we look at your tattoo and give you a realistic plan rather than a promise.
