For Marietta clients

Lightening for a Cover-Up, or Gone for Good?

Half of the Marietta clients who ask me about removal don't want the tattoo fully gone. They want it light enough that a tattoo artist can put something new over it. That usually takes far fewer sessions than full removal, so tell me your goal at the consult.

If you want it gone completely, black and grey body tattoos usually take 6 to 10 sessions, 8 to 12 weeks apart. Professional tattoos take longer than homemade ones because there's more ink packed in.

I only treat black and grey ink. If your tattoo has color in it, I'll tell you and point you to someone with the right laser.

Getting here: From the Square it's a straight run down to I-75 south and off at Delk Road (exit 261). Most Marietta clients tell me it's 12 to 15 minutes, and there's parking at the building.
