Will covering my tattoo protect it during my laser hair treatment?

It is not necessary to cover your tattoo, but it certainly will not hurt. As long as the technician keeps a safe distance from the tattoo, it will not be effected at all by laser. We treat many patients with tattoos and have never had a problem.

Hi Thanks for your question.Tattoos should be avoided completely during any laser session. It is not necessary to cover it over but it should definitely be completely avoided. We often outline them with white ink just to be sure.If the area to be treated is where the tattoo is then it wouldn't be possible.Hope this helps

Thank you for your question in regards to laser hair removal. During this treatment, tattoos do not necessarily need to be covered, but 100% should be avoided. It is suggested to stay a minimum of an inch all the way around your tattoo to avoid targeting that area. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.
