Located on Hwy. 1 in Strathmore, we welcome free walk in consultations.
But while you're here, you might as well read on about what we offer.....
Training:
After Forever's Laser Tattoo Removal Clinic has a certified laser technician on site.
Johnny Dollar completed training for Laser Tattoo Removal at the National Laser Institute ~ Academic Excellence In Laser & Medical Aesthetics, located in Scottsdale, Arizona. Johnny received extensive education on the many different variables involved with laser treatments, including specific client skin typing, proper frequency settings to use on varying clientele , the differences in light reaction to different ink types, the different lenses used for ink colours found in the tattoo, and much more!! The dozens of "practice" clients he performed treatments on at the National Laser Institute gave him the hands on education and guidance needed to set the bar high on what can be accomplished using the laser in Canada.
**It is very important to make your removal appointment with someone who has been properly educated to help reduce any risk of scarring or infections!!
A Little Bit About It:
Laser tattoo removal is ground breaking technology, with innovation that is changing the tattoo industry drastically. With how main-stream tattooing has become, it is difficult to imagine the stigma attached to it even 10 years ago! It can seem that nearly everyone you know has a tattoo, and with that abundance comes second thoughts, job search difficulties, and changes of lifestyle. Wherever you live in the world, there will always be people out there who attach a negative connotation to someone with a visible tattoo, regardless of how beautiful it may be. And unfortunately, many people have found that although their tattoo means something special and significant to them, it can sometimes be a hindrance to moving forward in their life. With laser tattoo removal, you are no longer "stuck with" your decision for the rest of your life!! We would like to offer you a second chance at your forever; thus our name, After Forever.
Tattoo Removal Pain:
Now for one of the most popular questions....does it hurt? Unfortunately the answer is, YES it does!
Removal Duration:
But, ON THE PLUS SIDE, the sessions are very fast (most being done in a matter of minutes). One thorough pass of the small light pulses will be made on your tattooed area until it has been completely covered, unlike the more significant length of time you are sitting during a tattoo application.
How It Works:
First and foremost, contrary to many assumptions, the laser does NOT "burn off" your tattoo!! Your tattoo sits within your skin as a collective 'object'. The laser light is not hitting your skin, rather it is being absorbed by the ink causing the ink particles to shatter beneath your skin. Different colors of ink absorb different light frequencies, therefore there are different lenses used depending on the colours in the tattoo. Once the ink is "shattered", your body's immune system comes to life, recognizing the pieces of ink as a foreign element that must be removed. The immune system sends white blood cells to the area to carry away and flush out the tiny pieces of ink. Because everyone's body is different it can be difficult to give an exact number of sessions required for complete removal, at least until seeing the results of the first session. At this point Johnny Dollar will let you know how many sessions will be required for the level of removal desired.
Price:
Although tattoo removal will run you well over what you spent on your original tattoo, each session is between 4 and 6 weeks apart...therefore you are not loaded down with an immediate massive financial burden when you come in to begin your sessions. After Forever's consultations are ALWAYS free, so once we see your piece and determine your needs you will have some numbers in your head to better prepared, should you decide to begin your treatments.
