Whether you have colorful or deep all black tattoos, our medical grade lasers can safely and effectively treat them in as little as 10 minutes. Say goodbye to the past and embrace a clean canvas with the help of our expert technicians and cutting-edge laser technology. Your journey to tattoo-free skin starts here.

Franklin Skin and Laser utilizes the latest technology in tattoo removal. A beam of light of a specific wavelength selectively targets different colors of ink pigment. The heat generated from this type of energy shatters particles in the ink, and your body safely absorbs “leftovers” of the tattoo.

The laser tattoo removal process is a gradual process that takes a series of treatments. Generally, black ink is quicker to remove than pastels or bold colors. Each color absorbs a given wavelength differently. The volume and quality of ink used by your tattoo artist also matters, as does the tattoo’s age and depth.

The doctor and his staff will consider these factors when determining the number of sessions to fade or eliminate unwanted body art.

Most of the benefits of laser tattoo removal revolve around the fact that it is a non-invasive procedure. There will be no scarring since the laser light is meant to leave your healthy skin cells alone, compared to techniques that rely on "sanding".

Laser removal can successfully fade and remove tattoos without the long-term side effects that often make other techniques of removal unappealing. Laser tattoo removals safely completely erase tattoos from a specific area of the body. There is a low danger of infection, few adverse effects following therapy, and a high level of comfort throughout treatment.

After each treatment, you can expect your tattoo to become progressively lighter. There is usually no downtime following laser tattoo removal; however, you may experience some redness and swelling. To help with this, we recommend using a cool compress and/or over-the-counter topicals such as aloe vera gel or lotion. You should not swim, use a tanning bed, or have skin treatments (e.g., waxing) for two weeks after your last treatment. Depending on the size and colors of the tattoo, it will take anywhere from three to eight sessions for total removal. Call us at (615) 595-8177 today to schedule a consultation.

"Love Franklin Skin & Laser! I have now used them for a couple of different services and have been very satisfied with my experience for both. First, the office is clean, bright and inviting, and located in a very convenient location. The front desk staff are all very kind and helpful, and the clinical staff are all clearly very knowledgeable about the services and are very patient and happy to talk with the patients for as long as needed and to answer any and all questions you may have." - Casey Minich
