Tattoo Removal: Finding a Reputable Clinic

Posted on : January 28, 2015  By : Wellness

If you have decided to proceed with laser tattoo removal, you may want to proceed urgently, especially if said tattoo is an embarrassing one. However, when it comes to deciding where to have your tattoo removed, you must not rush. This guide will help you determine what you should look out for when looking for a reputable tattoo removal clinic.

If it’s too good to be true, it probably is

No reputable clinic would guarantee the removal of a tattoo. Although laser tattoo removal technology is now more effective than ever, if a clinic is guaranteeing that they can completely remove your tattoo, be wary. Also pay attention when the clinic gives you a quotation for your treatment – there is a big difference between the cost being cheap, and being a competitive rate.

How do they come across?

Are you offered a free, no obligation consultation before starting your treatment? When you visit the clinic, does it appear clean and professional, or dirty and amateurish? Are they trying to push you into committing? When looking at potential laser tattoo removal clinics, trust your instincts. If somewhere doesn’t feel right, walk away.

Patience is key

If you are choosing between two clinics and are considering going for a cheaper clinic that has quoted fewer treatments, as opposed to a clinic with a good reputation that may cost a little more and may have recommended more treatments, you will be better off waiting and saving up for the clinic whose reputation you can trust. Check the website of the clinic you are considering for customer feedback and testimonials, as well as feedback on third-party websites.
