i want to get some tattoos removed by laser, but i am not sure if it is painful or not, or how much it would cost. See, the tattoos i want to remove are just letters. There is 6 letters on my knuckes which spell "SEC" on my right hand, and "OND" on my left hand. They spell my name in english. I also have MS on my left hand right between my thumb and pointer finger. Any one know where i can go have this done and how much it would cost? I live in the Owatonna, Minnesota area. Any advice would really be helpful. Please serious answers only. I really want to do this so it wont look so bad when i try to get a job. I know some places dont mind, but honestly i regret having it done. But what can i say, I was younger at the time and thought that it was cool. Im older now, and honestly i dont like them anymore. I do have other tattoos, but they get covered up with pants, so im not gonna get those removed. Well, any advice i can get, i would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Complete removal of a tattoo is based on several things. This is based on the size, location, the individual's ability to heal, how the tattoo was applied and how long it has been in place. Newer tattoos are generally more difficult to remove than old ones.
Tattoo removal is big cosmetic business and as such is not covered by any medical insurance plans. Tattoo removal is much more expensive than tattoo placement. Laser tattoo removal can range from several hundred dollars up into the thousands of dollars, depending upon the size, type and location of the tattoo and the number of visits required.
Laser treatment usually does not take more than a few minutes. However, multiple sessions are required to remove most tattoos. The multiple sessions are split over 4-8 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the tattoo
Hope this helps! :)

I'm not sure but I think they do something similar to skin resurfacing...which is $500 a treatment at a dermatologist and you have to do several treatments...But I'm not positive, I just know my dermatologist does tattoo removals....There's a career to go into, because all these young people who ran out and got tattoos when they were 18 are probably going to be looking into getting rid of them when they are about 35. You could be rolling in cash!!!!!

prices for removal vary but usually it is about $200ish dollars per treatment and removal takes anywhere from 5 to 12 treatments depending on different factors. i hear it is extremely painful, much more so than getting the tattoo in the first place.
