Astanza will present at the Aesthetic Meeting 2010 of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) in Washington DC. From April 24-26, Astanza will provided information to conference delegates on our tattoo removal technology and lasers.
Plastic surgeons have long been among the leading users of cosmetic laser technology in their practices. As part of an effort to provide beautifying and enhancing treatments to their patients, medical and aesthetic lasers play an important role. Tattoo removal lasers have begun to appear more and more frequently in these offices as plastic surgeons and their practice managers recognize the opportunity to expand profitability by offering this fast and simple-to-perform treatment.
The demographics of laser tattoo removal patients can very attractive, and intuitive to those that understand the motivations for laser removal of tattoos. This patient group - which has a median income and education level in excess of the general population - is looking to improve their appearance and remove the mistakes of their college or more rebellious days. Tattoo removal patients are not heavily-tattooed bikers wearing layers of leather. These individuals love their tattoos in many cases and are not looking to change their appearance. Instead, the average tattoo removal patient is a 29 year old woman, generally in the workforce or with a new family.
Surveys of tattoo removal patients show that they are also customers of other cosmetic laser procedures, including hair removal, facial resurfacing, and laser lipolysis. They are willing to make monthly visits to a facility for a short laser treatment and have the discretionary income or ability to get financing to pay for a package of laser tattoo removal treatments. They are more often than not married or in a relationship, where the partner shares or is encouraging of the removal of tattoos.
Simply, the average tattoo removal patient is one that fits very well into a plastic surgery practice, and mostly likely these practices already have these patients in their waiting rooms. Why not offer a highly-profitable treatment that will provide immediate beautification of skin in a simple-to-perform laser procedure?
