I'm 14 weeks pregnant and I'm currently enroll in a program to have my tattoo removed. My next appointment is next week which will make me 15 weeks. Will this affect my baby in anyway??

Answer: Tattoo treatments while pregnant There is simply not enough data to know what the exact risk is to receiving laser tattoo removal while pregnant. As such, we always advocate caution and would not advise to have treatment nor perform tattoo removal treatments on patients who are pregnant or nursing. It sounds like you are anxious to get this tattoo removed, but it would be prudent to wait until you are done nursing to have treatment.
