Tattoo Removal Services

Crucial Tattoo Studio is a Tattoo Removal Expert

In the United States today, approximately 40 million people have tattoos, and that number is growing. It is estimated that 17% of them would like one or more tattoos removed for a variety of reasons. Some are dissatisfied with a poorly executed tattoo, or a tattoo that has not held up well over many years of time or sun exposure. Others, who loved their tattoo in the past, may feel differently about it now, or maybe just want to make room for a larger, more substantial tattoo project.

Until the introduction of Tatt2Away, laser treatment was the generally accepted method for removal of tattoo ink or pigment, but with it comes possible risks associated with how it breaks up the pigment in the skin, and how the pigment gets disposed of by the body’s lymph nodes and liver. Another problem with this type of removal is that laser light can only treat a limited range of colors effectively, leaving others virtually untouched. In comparison, Tatt2Away involves non-laser tattoo removal that uses the body's own natural healing processes to SAFELY REMOVE the tattoo pigments from the skin without ever releasing them into the body, and Tatt2Away will effectively REMOVE ALL COLORS!

Tatt2Away treatments are designed to remove the pigmented areas of your tattoo in a series of visits, the number depending on the size of the design. For an average size tattoo, you will probably need four visits, but we will evaluate your individual needs during your initial consultation.

Tattoo pigment is inert, and not recognized by your body as a foreign substance. This is the reason it is not rejected by the body, and why it remains as permanent. Tatt2Away uses a proprietary fluid called TEPRSOL to bring the tattoo pigment to the surface in the form of a scab. Once the scab falls off, there is no more pigment in that area, and the underlying skin is clear. TEPRSOL’s active ingredient occurs naturally in the body in carbohydrates and meets the specifications of the US Food Chemicals Codex.

The tattooed areas of the skin are lightly abraded with a hand piece designed specifically for this procedure, though very similar to the machines commonly used to apply the original tattoo. The procedure can be as painful as a typical tattoo application, so if you have a very low pain tolerance you can use a recommended topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort.

A typical treatment session generally lasts between 30-60 minutes in length, during which time small circles are created over the surface of your tattoo. Spaces are purposely left between each circle for better healing results, and will be treated in subsequent sessions. The spacing strategy has proven to help with the over all healing process and minimizes the chance of scarring. Time between treatments is a minimum of 8 weeks, with a 4 week check up in between.

For any tattoo studio to offer Tatt2Away, which has previously only been offered in doctor's offices or medi-spas, the studio must first be approved to do so. Crucial Tattoo Studio underwent an inspection process and in-depth training so that we can offer you a safe, and positive tattoo removal experience.

Our facility is one of a select group of studios in the United States that has been authorized to perform the Tatt2Away treatments, and our staff has been certified in the correct application of the technique, and healing procedures.
