How it works: This laser-free tattoo removal is very effective, and very safe - with minimal scarring.  Tatt2Away® uses an innovative patented technique TEPR® (Trans Epidermal Pigment Release) with TERPSOL®, a solution naturally occurring in carbohydrates, which binds and breaks down the ink pigments bringing them up and out of the body.  The technician performs the removal with equipment similar to a tattoo machine, applying the solution in 5mm patches following a stencil pattern. This begins the process of binding and breaking down the ink pigments of your tattoo.

 

As the area heals, the solution pulls the ink from the skin in the form of a scab. When the scab falls away, the ink goes with it. Your Tatt2Away technician will plan to treat small sections to control and maintain a healthy healing process. Each session will treat a different area until the required removal is complete.

 

 

Pain?:  Because the procedure is equivalent to that of a tattoo being applied the level of discomfort during removal is similar to how you felt when getting the tattoo. Many patients claim the removal process was less uncomfortable than when they originally were inked.

 

 

Healing:  The TEPR® relies on your body’s natural healing to reject the ink from the treated area in the form of a scab. When the scab falls off it is actually removing the ink from the body.

 

In between treatments, you will be advised to keep the area clean and out of the sun and to follow all aftercare instructions given by your technician to achieve the best result possible based on your specific removal.

 

When you schedule a series of Tatt2Away® treatments, you will be asked to review information about the procedure so that you understand exactly what is required of you for a successful outcome.
