Make an appointment in our tattoo shop in Amsterdam to have your tattoo lasered. We are happy to help you remove the tattoo that you are no longer happy with.
Every tattoo is different, and so are the costs of tattoo removal. We laser from €50 per treatment. In order to determine the final price, we look at the following factors:
You can choose to have the tattoo permanently removed with multiple treatments. There is also the option of lightening. We lighten your existing tattoo and then place a cover-up over it. A cover-up is placing a new tattoo over an old tattoo, so that it is no longer visible.
With a laser treatment we splinter the dark dye into minuscule pieces. During the healing process, part is rejected, while your own cell metabolism clears away another part. To completely remove the tattoo, multiple treatments are needed. On average, a tattoo is no longer visible after six to eight treatments. However, there are also tattoos that are completely gone after two treatments. Depending on the amount of pigment applied, the grain size of the pigment and your skin type, we can estimate how many treatments you need.

We regularly receive questions about laser tattoo removal. Below you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions.
How many sessions do I need?
On average, you need six to eight treatments to remove a tattoo, but sometimes a tattoo is gone after just two treatments. How many you need depends on the amount of pigment, grain size, color and your skin type.
Can all ink colors be removed?
No, not all colours of ink can be removed. For example, black and red ink are quite easy to laser away, but colours such as yellow, orange, blue and green cannot be lasered away.
Will I get scars from the laser treatment?
No, no scars will form. In the first two weeks, a white layer with blisters or vesicles may form. These will disappear by themselves. This is different for each person. If the tattoo is already ‘on the skin’, then you can already feel it and that also means that scarring is already present. When removing it, this scarring will not disappear. We cannot therefore guarantee that no scar will form in that case.
Will my tattoo disappear completely?
After laser treatment, a tattoo sometimes disappears completely, while in other cases it is not possible to make it completely invisible. We will tell you in advance whether it is possible to make your tattoo disappear and how many treatments you need.
What should I take into account after laser treatment?
You may not take a bath, go to the sauna, go in the sun or use a sunbed for two weeks after the treatment. You may also not swim during this period. This applies to both swimming pools and natural water. The final result of the treatment is clearly visible approximately two weeks after tattoo removal.
