Tattoo Removal for Tattoo Shops
Overview
Astanza lasers are the ideal choice for tattoo studios adding laser tattoo removal to an existing operation. More and more tattoo shop owners are realizing that offering laser tattoo removal enhances their ability to produce great body art and increase profits. For too many years, the tattoo industry and tattoo removal industry were at odds, seeing the other as antagonistic. Astanza has seen an opportunity for partnership and common cause in helping people achieve the skin and style they desire. Let’s work together.
Astanza’s tattoo removal lasers are able to remove a tattoo completely, or to fade it just enough that an attractive cover-up tattoo will be possible. Your clients may have a tattoo that doesn’t meet their needs anymore. Examples might include name tattoos, tattoo with a message that doesn’t fit a person’s life anymore, or a tattoo that was poorly applied or has faded over time. Clients trust you with their skin and their style. Astanza lasers can be a way for you to provide an additional service and grow your business.
Many tattoo studios select Astanza lasers so they can perform treatments to lighten a tattoo in preparation for stunning new art. The range of cover up options is much greater when a faded tattoo is presented to you than a dark black tattoo or one with rich, bright colors that are difficult to blend into something new. Our q-switched, Nd:YAG and Nd:YAG/Ruby lasers are able to shatter the ink in a fast, well-tolerated procedure and give you a clean palette to work with.
Reasons to Add Laser Tattoo Removal
Tattoo studios are extremely well positioned to benefit from laser tattoo removal:
Increase profits by adding a new source of income through complete removal of unwanted tattoos.
Enhance your ability to apply attractive cover up tattoos by using laser treatments to fade the original tattoo.
Increase the number of clients that enter the shop each day by offering a new procedure.
Increase the amount of money you can make per hour so you can spend less time at work and more time doing the things you enjoy.
Laser tattoo removal is a relatively simple cosmetic procedure that you and your artists can provide in the large majority of states and countries. Astanza has years of experience training tattoo artists and other non-medical personnel on how to use our tattoo removal laser safely and effectively. We’ll provide in-depth education on how lasers work, how to perform hands-on procedures, and how to market and operate the new business. We’ll be partners in your success, and help you offer a valuable and profitable new service in your community.
Opportunity for Better Art and Increased Profits.
Astanza’s entire focus is on tattoo removal lasers, and we see big ways to help you grow and improve your business. Think of the number of tattoos that you see every day that your clients wish they had never gotten. The name tattoos that people get when they think a relationship will last forever often times aren’t so appealing after the relationship is over. The tattoo can be removed completely, or it can be covered up. Sometimes a thick, dark, black tattoo can be difficult to cover with a lighter color. Laser tattoo removal offers you revenue from laser treatments as well as an opportunity to generate income and enhance your reputation with a successful cover up.
Our lasers can generate $150-$500 for a five to fifteen minute treatment on a single client with very minimal consumable expense (bandages, tape, etc). Clients may need only a few treatments for a cover up, or 5-15 treatments for complete removal of a tattoo. In many geographies, you and your team can perform these procedures with the assistance of a physician medical director that will offer supervision of any medical concerns and needs.
Tattoo artists are already very familiar with skin and the best studios emphasize aftercare instructions that give your clients great results and healthy skin. Laser tattoo removal has similar side effects that you are accustomed to, and our training programs will fill you in on laser treatment-specific instructions you’ll want to pass on to your clients.
You’ve seen in your business how popular tattoo are. In virtually every country around the world, especially in North America, Europe, and Asia, tattoos are becoming commonplace. Never before have tattoos been so popular across such a wide range of age, race, gender, and geography. Tattoo shops are also springing up, and some of them have artists that don’t have the skills or experience to produce the highest-level quality of art, or apply tattoos on those that aren’t in a position to make a good decision.
Market research suggests that up to 50% of tattoos will one day be removed. Your existing tattoo clients have tattoos they want removed. Some have changed their style and want to “clear up real estate” for better tattoos. Others want a cover up but want to get something that isn’t very big so they need to fade the tattoo first. Others want to feel they need to be tattoo free because of employment opportunities, or because they didn’t really think before they inked. Astanza can help you identify the potential clients and advertise your service to them. We will be a technology, clinical, and training partner in your success.
