WHAT IS THE GENERAL COST OF TATTOO REMOVAL?
There are a number of tattoo removal methods available today and the cost of tattoo removal varies greatly among them all. If you are interested in finding a tattoo removal procedure that is right for you and your tattoo, one of the factors that will undoubtedly come into play is how much of your hard-earned money you are going to be expected to dole out to cover the cost of tattoo removal.
The cost of tattoo removal may be an important issue where your wallet is concerned, but you will also need to look at which procedures are going to work on the type of tattoo you have, how much pain there may be, the types of side effects that are involved and how long the procedure will take to provide satisfactory results for you.
Laser tattoo removal
If you are looking at laser tattoo removal, you are not alone. This method is the most popular these days and is fairly quick. Unfortunately, the procedure has some minor drawbacks: yellow, orange and green inks are not very tolerant of attempted invasions by this particular method. Side effects such as scarring and infection are very unlikely, but there is a price to pay for this added bonus. The cost of tattoo removal in regards to laser procedures can be stunning. Between five and ten treatments will generally be needed and the cost for each will run you from $250 to $850. Yep! The total cost here can add up to a whopping $10,000 (that must be some tattoo)!
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) uses quick repetitive pulses of almost “magical” light and is considered similar to laser removal. The cost of tattoo removal using this procedure is rather astronomical. You will pay approximately $10 per pulse and each treatment will require an average of 50 to 500 pulses of light. Multiple treatments may be needed. You might have to sell your house (and/or kids) to afford the cost of removal for this option!
Dermabrasion and salabrasion are the rough and tumble contenders in the arena. This is where you may expect to find more infection and scarring. picosure laser tattoo removal machine The pain thing can be an issue here too. Of course, when was the last time you tried sanding away your blemishes with sand paper (or a caustic, salty solution for that matter)?

Tattoo removal creams [http://www.tattoo-ink-removal.com/tattooremovalcream.html] are magic-like potions that fade and peel your regret away slowly.

The machine method, which is basically a tattoo-over process that injects an ink-ridding saline solution over the top of your existing tattoo, causing the ink to break down and rise to the surface of the skin to be sloughed off as scab tissue, is another option. The cost if you are using the machine method is around $100 per treatment. In order to completely get rid of the tattoo, you may need three to five treatments, bringing the cost to only as much as $500. This means you could have the machine method of tattoo removal done for not much more than the cost which is associated with the cream method.
Calling Attention to Rejuvi Tattoo Removal at the Tattoo Parlor
One of the newer products on the market to offer tattoo removal is called Rejuvi.
Even though Rejuvi can be considered a cream, you cannot buy the product over the internet and administer it yourself. Rejuvi is administered like a tattoo. Rejuvi must be administered by a trained professional.
Rejuvi tattoo removal has found popularity in other countries and has just recently begun to catch on here in the states. It is easy to find recipients of Rejuvi treatment who are happy with their end results and also a number who are unhappy with their treatments. The general consensus seen across the forums and comments is that the competency of the individual who administered the treatment may be to blame.
When Rejuvi is administered by an rookie technician, results can be questionable and poor.
The segment of time necessary for Rejuvi training is not very long. In general the courses last 2-3 weeks. A shorter training course is offered to people already working as tattoo artists. Since a large part of the training is learning the machine and how to handle it, these tattoo artists have a big advantage over other students. They are also more likely to be more proficient in applying Rejuvi. From their experience with creating tattoos, they are better at judging the depth of the needle penetration and reaching the deeper layers of skin without causing trauma to the area.
Tattoo parlors expanding
As Rejuvi catches on in the states you are likely to see tattoo parlors expanding their services. They will begin to offer tattoos, piercing, and tattoo removal via a tattoo machine using Rejuvi. The only investment is a few hundred dollars for the course and a couple weeks of your time and you are a Rejuvi technician.
With tattoo removal becoming a popular request and people actually getting tattoo removal just to make room for new tattoos, offering Rejuvi as well as tattoos in one shop seems like a very smart way to increase business.
Innovative tattoo parlor owners are beginning to offer laser removal as well as tattoos but the cost of laser is beyond the financial means of many potential clients. It is also a big investment on the part of the tattoo shop. By offering tattoo removal with Rejuvi, the shop owner is expanding his services with little risk or overhead. There is no need to accommodate special expensive equipment. All that is required is the purchase of the product itself. It can be administered with the same tattoo equipment used by the artists.
Innovative, business minded tattoo artists have found ways to branch off and expand their business line with new services and products. They are also promoting their business in new and innovative ways. Heck, I found my artist by buying a school raffle ticket giving me fifty percent off a tattoo. That got my attention and motivated me to make my appointment.
