Breast lift and explantation - should I wait till I heal?
Answer: Tattoo removal and breast lift There is no reason why you can't get your tattoo removed and also have a breast lift at the same time. They are completely different areas of your body. The tattoo removal will take multiple treatments spaced at least 6 weeks apart. After each treatment it will take possibly a week to heal, so you could start with the tattoo removal and then resume after having your breast surgery. Good luck!

Answer: Laser Tattoo Removal -- Takes a series of treatments Laser tattoo removal takes a series of treatments, but it shouldn't interfere with your procedures. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a laser tattoo removal expert to go over a treatment plan and time line. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Tattoo removal and other surgery As long as the tattoo is not directly over where the surgery site will be, there is no medical reason why you couldn't have the tattoo removed at any time. However, your plastic surgery wounds should not take long to heal if everything goes well. So it probably makes sense to wait for reasons of convenience and comfort. But if you are really in a hurry to get started with the tattoo removal process it should be safe to do so whenever you want to.

Answer: Tattoo Removal and Breast Lift Thank you for your question. Having tattoo removal will not interfere with your breast surgery. Remember it takes a series (6-10) of sessions to remove a tattoo. Make sure you are being treated by an expert physician using the correct lasers for your tattoo. However, this being said you may be more comfortable waiting till after your surgery to start laser tattoo removal. Best of Luck!

Answer: Tattoo removal and breast lift The tattoo is on your neck not your breasts. I would say it should not matter doing both around the same time. That being said, you may be sore after your breast procedure and not want the added discomfort of the tattoo removal. Tattoo removal will take several treatments spaced months apart. This is not a quick process. I would consider waiting until my breasts were healed and then doing the tattoo removal as you may not want to add to the discomfort of your procedure but doing both together should not make a difference
