Laser Tattoo Removal

The VersaPulse® laser for tattoo removal is the gold standard and provides amazing results. It offers 3 different wavelengths (qs1064nm, qs755nm, qs532nm) to target all colors of tattoo ink. As with many cosmetic procedures, the number of treatments needed to lighten the tattoo will vary based on many factors:

• Age and location of the tattoo
• Depth and color of the ink
• Patient’s skin type (natural color of the skin)
• The strength of the patient’s immune system
• The laser technician’s knowledge and experience

These factors, combined, all play a major role in the tattoo removal process. When it comes to removing a tattoo, the most advanced laser system is only half of the equation. Perhaps, the most important element is the person who operates the laser and performs your treatment. Here at Griffin Plastic Surgery we not only use the gold standard in technology, but we have one of the most experienced laser technicians in South Carolina. Griffin Plastic Surgery's laser technician, Jonathan D. Gardner, has been safely and effectively removing tattoos for over a decade.

Jonathan has performed thousands of laser treatments and is considered an expert among his peers in the aesthetic medical community.

Jonathan works with our on-staff team of physicians to help you develop and customize a treatment strategy that suits your goals –either for complete removal — or for lightening an existing tattoo (so that you can cover it with more artwork).
