Does Tattoo Removal Need To Be Improved?

 
Dr. Friedman explains to CNBC that while there is always room for improvement, the negative experience that many people have with laser tattoo removal could be due in part to inexperienced or underqualified providers. He says that patients sometimes come to him after having treatment from a non-physician, which can lead to subpar results, and “they might end up with complications and there could be pain associated with the treatment.” Dr. Friedman has seen an increase in patients whose tastes have changed since they got their initial tattoos in their teens or 20’s. He is pleased to utilize highly advanced lasers and DESCRIBE® PFD Patch technology to increase patient comfort while reducing the number of sessions needed for tattoo removal.
