Houston Dermatologist Dr. Paul Friedman Shares About Increasing Demand for Tattoo Removal “Chron” Article

As tattoos have increased in popularity, so have people’s regrets over their skin art. Chron, the Houston Chronicle’s web outlet, recently reached out to Dr. Paul M. Friedman of the Dermatology & Laser Surgery Center to learn more about the process of tattoo removal.

Rising Demand for Tattoo Removal in Houston

For many years tattoo removal was primarily sought after by people who wanted to remove ex’s names and people with face or hand tattoos that kept them from professional work. Nowadays, as body art has soared in popularity, Dr. Friedman says “More and more millennials are receiving tattoos, and subsequently having regret and wanting removal.”

Tattoo Removal Can Be Painful and Costly

Laser removal of tattoos has advanced greatly in recent years and Dr. Friedman is able to remove many types of tattoos from a range of skin types with modern techniques such as Picosecond Laser. However, he does caution that tattoo removal can be more painful and more expensive than the process of getting a tattoo. He takes steps to minimize pain for patients and his practice offers financing options for patients.
