For many clients, the feeling of laser tattoo removal has been compared to what it feels like when getting a tattoo. It is not a comfortable treatment, however it is a very fast treatment.  Topical anesthetic can be used if needed and it is available for purchase or we can do in clinic, with a prescription grade topical anesthetic(extra charges apply).  Pre cooling and ice rollers are also used to increase comfort and typically smaller tattoos do not require a topical anesthetic.
