How it works
During each laser tattoo removal session, our certified specialists use FDA‑cleared PicoSure® and Q‑switched technology to shatter ink particles into microscopic fragments that your body can naturally flush away, accelerating fading while protecting the surrounding skin. Most clients see visible lightening after just one visit, with complete removal typically achieved in 4–8 sessions depending on ink depth, color, and placement. We combine customized laser settings for every skin type and comprehensive after‑care instructions to minimize downtime and optimize healing. With transparent pricing, flexible scheduling, and a complimentary patch test, LaserSKN makes it simple and affordable to reclaim clear skin through professional laser tattoo removal in Coeur d’Alene.
FAQs
How many sessions will I need to remove my tattoo?
Most tattoos require 4 to 8 sessions for noticeable fading or full removal, depending on the tattoo’s size, color, location, and your skin type. Black ink fades fastest, while colored or layered tattoos may take longer. At LaserSKN, we use advanced Pico laser technology to speed up the process and reduce total sessions. A personalized treatment plan will be provided during your free consultation.
Does tattoo removal hurt?
Most clients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snap. Treatments are quick, and we use advanced cooling technology to keep you as comfortable as possible.
How much does tattoo removal cost?
Tattoo removal pricing depends on the size, color, and location of your tattoo. At LaserSKN, treatments typically range from $100 to $300 per session. We offer free consultations and custom quotes based on your tattoo and goals.
Is laser tattoo removal safe?
Yes, laser tattoo removal is FDA-cleared and clinically safe when performed by trained professionals. We use modern Pico laser technology designed to protect the skin and reduce risk of scarring.
How long does each tattoo removal session take?
Sessions are usually quick — about 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the tattoo’s size. You’ll be in and out of the studio in under 30 minutes in most cases.
How long between tattoo removal sessions?
We recommend waiting 6 to 8 weeks between sessions to allow your body to heal and flush out ink particles. Rushing the process can increase risk of side effects and slow progress.
When will I see results from tattoo removal?
Many clients see noticeable fading after 1–2 sessions, with continued improvement after each visit. Full results develop gradually as your body clears the ink.
How does laser tattoo removal work?
The laser breaks ink into tiny particles using light pulses, allowing your body’s immune system to flush it out naturally. Over multiple sessions, the tattoo fades until it’s no longer visible.
What is the best laser for tattoo removal?
Pico lasers, such as ClearLaz® Pico or PicoWay®, are among the best for tattoo removal. They deliver ultra-short pulses that break down ink faster and more gently than older lasers.
Can colored tattoos be removed?
Yes, but colored inks—especially greens, blues, and yellows—may take more sessions than black ink. Our Pico laser is designed to effectively treat multicolored tattoos.
Does tattoo removal leave scars?
Laser tattoo removal generally does not cause scarring when performed properly. Any scarring is usually from the original tattoo process, not the laser itself.
Can eyebrow tattoos or permanent makeup be removed?
Yes, cosmetic tattoos can be removed with laser, but they require careful assessment. Some pigments may darken temporarily before fading. A test patch is recommended.
Can I fade my tattoo for a cover-up?
Absolutely. Many clients use laser treatments to lighten their existing tattoo, making it easier for an artist to create a cleaner cover-up design.
