Free Consultation For Tattoo Removal 

Your time matters. That’s why Zapatat® removes tattoos in 3–6 sessions.

Back in 2012, after a full year of research, we launched something that changed tattoo removal forever: the Accelerated Removal Technique (ART®). Since then, we’ve performed over 6,000 ART® treatments and continually refined the process to make it even faster and more effective. This method can remove most tattoos in as little as 3–6 visits. That’s one to two years instead of years of appointments and endless waiting.                       

What to Expect From your Free Consultation 

Your consultation is designed to give you clarity and confidence before you begin. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Personalized Tattoo Evaluation – We’ll look at your tattoo’s size, color, placement, and density to understand how it will respond.
  • Clear Treatment Plan – We’ll walk you through how tattoo removal works, what kind of results you can expect, and the typical number of sessions.
  • Transparent Pricing – Pricing is simple and fair: you only pay for the measured inked area, not the full tattoo size.
  • Convenience Built In – If you decide to continue with treatment, each visit lasts 30–90 minutes, with flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends.
  • Open Q&A – We’ll answer your questions, address your concerns, and make sure you feel comfortable before moving forward.
What to Expect From ART®
  • Visible Results Fast – Most clients see noticeable fading after just one ART® session within 12 weeks.
  • Proven Effectiveness – ART® clears most tattoos in 3–6 sessions, typically within 1-2 years.
  • 30–80% Clearance – Especially effective for black ink tattoos on skin types I–IV.
  • Skin Type Review – Your skin type (I–VI) is an important factor. ART® works best for skin types I–IV on black ink tattoos. For skin types V–VI, we’ll determine during your consultation whether ART® is the right option for you. Typically, we begin with one conventional treatment at the first visit, then consider ART® at a follow-up session depending on your results.
  • Whenever possible, we recommend our signature ART® (Accelerated Removal Technique). In a single visit, you’ll receive four laser passes, delivering results equal to five or six conventional sessions. ART® sessions are scheduled about 12 weeks apart to give your body time to clear the ink.
  • Remember — tattoo removal is a gradual process that requires patience and commitment. While we can provide an estimate of how many sessions you may need, every tattoo and every client is unique. That’s why we start with a free consultation to map out the best treatment plan for you.
Frequently Asked Questions

💡 Will it hurt?
Tattoo removal does involve some discomfort, but most clients describe it as a sensation similar to rubber band snaps or tiny sparks against the skin. The level of discomfort can vary depending on tattoo placement, ink density, and your individual pain tolerance. Areas with thinner skin or more nerve endings (like ribs, ankles, or wrists) may feel more sensitive.

💡 How much does it cost?
Pricing is based on the measured inked area, not the overall tattoo size. This keeps costs lower and fairer. You’ll receive a clear estimate during your consultation.

💡 Can all tattoos be removed?
ART® is most effective for black ink tattoos on skin types I–IV. For skin types V–VI, we’ll carefully evaluate during your consultation. Typically, we begin with one conventional treatment first, then may perform ART® at a follow-up based on your results.

💡 How long is each appointment?
Sessions take about 45–90 minutes, depending on tattoo size.
