I have a 20 square inch tattoo that is only black and grey. I have been looking into tattoo removal but the pricing confuses me. Most places are about $50 per square inch so I'm calculating 10,000 total for the whole tattoo?! Am I doing this right? Is that the norm? Also I calculated that I am a 9 on the scale they use for pricing removal but I forgot what it's called. Thank you!
Answer: Tattoo removal Thank you for your question about tattoo removal. Pricing varies from office to office. It is usually determined on the size of the tattoo and amount of ink. If you have a 20 sq. inch tattoo and it is $50 per sq. inch that would be $1,000 per treatment, which seems exsessive. I would suggest seeing 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.

Answer: Pricing for Tattoo Removal Hello CNPonce. Pricing for laser tattoo removal is not a commodity. This means that the price is different at different facilities. The cost depends on how much time the treatment takes and how much the practitioner values their time at. $1000 per treatment for 20 square inches seems a bit high for us, but again, prices will vary based on the value of the practitioners time. Also, our estimate for dark colored tattoos is usually 6-8 visits, but this too can vary depending on the quality of the work, the quality of the ink and the depth of placement of the ink. Your best bet is to attend a few consultations and see where you feel comfortable. Ask for before and after pictures, if they have ever had any scarring and how many treatments they believe it will take.To see examples of our Los Angeles laser tattoo removal patient before and after photos, click on the link below.

Answer: Confused at pricing for tattoo removal? Hello, Thank you for your question. Pricing is not only based on the size of the tattoo, but it is based on the volume of ink in the tattoo. A tattoo that is mostly outline with less ink volume requires far less pulses than a tattoo that is heavy with ink. Another thing that may determine pricing is the device being used. The latest technology is the pico-second technology. The PicoWay Laser (Candela/Syneron) uses photoacoustic
