ABOUT ZAPATAT®️
Zapatat®️ Tattoo Removal in Weeks, not Years!
While few providers can safely execute even a basic R20 treatment, Zapatat®️ has elevated the concept to an art form. Through meticulous research and extensive sessions, we have refined and improved the R20 method to such an extent that it deserves its own name — ART®️. Here are some highlights of our artistic approach:
- Four unique laser treatments within a single 45 minute session.
- ART®️ removal usually takes 2-4 visits over 24-48 weeks, vs 2 years+ with conventional methods (PicoWay laser).
- One ART®️ session clears 50-80% of unwanted ink.
- Effective for most tattoos, considering individual variations.
- Safe for all skin types, without additional risks of skin lightening, darkening, or scarring.
Fewer visits, coupled with the same or even lower total costs. That is why we are the World’s Fastest Tattoo Removal. We can remove most tattoos in 24 weeks vs years.

Our Mission
We are humbled by client reviews that usually compliment our friendly, skilled staff and great results. Our clients often say it was a great experience overall. Great customer service and faster results is what we are all about!
Our R&D produced the world’s fastest tattoo removal, “ART”. With over 2,000 ARTs we continue to learn and get even faster removals. We’ve already reduced removal to 2-4 sessions, 24-48 weeks vs years. My ultimate goal is removal in one session. That sometimes happens but only with ideal cases.
We would love to help you remove your least loved ink!

Removing tattoos in Weeks not years: Zapatat®️‘s Accelerated Removal Technique
We take pride in our pioneering role in developing the multi-pass, fast removal technique. This innovative approach accelerates the tattoo removal process without compromising safety or results.
In 2015, after one year of R&D, Zapatat debuted the Accelerated Removal Technique (ART). With over 2,000 ARTs, we continually refine the technique to make it even faster. One ART typically removes 50-80% of ink after 12 weeks. Full removal is achieved within 2-4 ART sessions. That’s 24-48 weeks vs 2-3 years of conventional pico laser removal. Our goals is to achieve full removal in 12 weeks and in some rare cases, that does occur.
Guaranteed Tattoo Removal
When you choose Zapatat®️, you receive an estimate of the number of “passes” needed for your tattoo removal during your initial consultation. Should the actual removal require more passes, we promise to continue treating you at half the price until we achieve the desired results.

For an awful procedure, I had a great experience!
November 1, 2022 - Julie Carr
I cannot say enough about Zapatat. The owner Chris and his employees made me feel welcome and comfortable from the moment I walked in. Carly spent so much time explaining the process and making sure I was comfortable. For the actual procedure, they talked me through it, made me laugh and although it sounds weird, I really enjoyed myself. I would give them way more stars then 5 if I could!!!

I just completed an over the phone consultation with Chris and it could not have gone better. I’ve been researching his methods for months and had so many questions — he answered all of them in completely and politely which left me feeling so confident about my upcoming appointment. I will be sure to update my review after each session with pictures. Either way feeling very lucky to have found this place!

My husband has been going there for the past 2 years. From the first time we stepped foot in there to our last visit this past weekend, they are always kind and welcoming. They provide great customer service and the tattoo removal services they provide are the best. Tattoos are going away! Carmen is the technician who has done the tattoo removal and she is great!! She gives us care instructions and even some materials to go home with to help with the after care. Thank you, Zapatat!

I wanted a job as a flight attendant and was told I had to get my tattoo removed. I saw this company on TikTok and decided to use them. The pricing was good and although I didn’t like the laser portion of it, it was quick and the cooling part help with how it felt after it was done. The staff are phenomenal and friendly! Owner really took care of me and price was definitely in my price range. I have to say I’m pleased in every way! Thanks team at Zapatat! You made this experience comfortable in every way.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much faster is ART®️ vs Conventional?
One ART® session delivers results equal to five or six single-pass treatments. That means faster fading, fewer visits, and ultimately a lower overall cost for you.
Because ART® sessions are spaced at least 90 days apart, the cost spread over time often works out to be less than your daily Starbucks coffee.
Why don’t most pictures show complete removal?
Our photos are real — no filters, no tricks.
Every image you see comes directly from our clients. Most are taken before the very last session, since many people don’t return for a “final” photo once their tattoo is completely gone. That’s why you won’t always see a perfect end shot.
When clients remove more than one tattoo, one usually clears first — and that’s when we capture those “perfect picture” results. It’s real progress, real skin, and real freedom from unwanted ink.
How long is an appointment?
Your first appointment will generally be 90 minutes including paperwork, consultation and treatment. Follow-up treatment appointments will take 15 minutes or less. The ART®️ will take 45-90 mins based on tattoo size. We do not double book appointments so there is seldom any waiting.
How often can I get treated?
We recommend intervals that will minimize cost, while maintaining safety and effectiveness. Conventional treatments are generally at 6-8 week intervals between treatments and 8-12 weeks for ART®️. Shortening the time will not result in faster removal and will increase risk of side effects. We will specify the waiting period after each treatment depending on how you are responding.
