There are several reasons why you may be considering laser tattoo removal. But for some, the decision can be just as difficult as getting a tattoo in the first place.

You don’t have to commit to getting your tattoo removed at this consultation; we can simply review your options and talk you through the decision.

Reverse That "Permanent" Decision
Laser tattoo removal involves a combination of powerful laser technology and your body’s natural healing capabilities to remove unwanted ink. The treatment works by introducing a concentrated energy beam to the treatment site to dissolve color pigments, which your body absorbs.

The Laser Tattoo Removal Process
What to Expect
Step 01
Thinking about getting rid of your tattoo? Call us to set up a consultation. At your consultation, we'll listen to your concerns and answer any questions you may have. We will take a look at your tattoo and determine if laser tattoo removal in Monterey is suitable for you. From there, we'll determine the number of sessions you require and schedule treatment!
Step 02
At your appointment, our specialist will apply a local anesthetic to numb the treatment area. Then they will slowly move the handheld laser device over your tattoo, which directs energy at the pigment in your skin. Depending on the size of your tattoo, a single session can take between 30 to 60 minutes.
Step 03
Each patient will likely need several sessions to fade their tattoo. After each session, you can expect some mild redness, swelling, or blistering. Your provider will instruct you on how to care for the treatment site.
Start Anew And Remove That Tattoo
People change, bodies change, and tastes change. Even though you may have liked your tattoo before, whether for its significance, emotional connection, or appearance, over time, you may find yourself wishing you had never gotten it in the first place. But fortunately, tattoos aren’t permanent with Peninsula Glow Medical Spa, and you can start fresh with our laser tattoo removal in Monterey.

Frequently Asked Questions
The discomfort of laser tattoo removal is comparable to laser hair removal. We apply a local anesthetic before starting the treatment to numb the area.
The number of sessions you may need depends on the size, color, and location of the tattoo. Each session is spaced out every 6 to 8 weeks to allow the skin to heal and to effectively treat the tattoo, layer by layer.

Laser Hair Removal
At Peninsula Glow Medical Spa, our laser hair removal directs energy into the treatment area to sear hair follicles. Because laser hair removal treats hair growth at the source, unlike shaving or waxing, the hair can no longer grow back.
Laser Facial
A laser facial treatment heats up the different layers of the skin to destroy imperfections and stimulate collagen production. Some of our laser skin resurfacing options focus on small age spots or acne scars, where others are better suited for larger skin concerns.
