I went here and received 10 treatments for a tattoo that was about 2 inches long on my wrist. I got my first 6 treatments for a total of $625 and my last 4 treatments for a total of $475. I grew suspicious of how much time and money was going in to the process so I did some more research. I saw a negative review here and several reviews at Under my Skin that stated they came from here and found they had been getting ripped off. I decided to try Under my Skin as well. There I found out that I should have never needed 10 treatments to complete my removal, I had not been given proper after care and I was getting over charged. My treatment with Under my Skin was only $85 and she gave me special tape to assist with scarring I had forming from my previous treatments. She gave a lot more information about proper care, possible issues and how to take care of issues if they do arise. I regret starting my treatments at On Second Thought and wish I would have started at Under my Skin. Read Less

I had treatments done when Brian first opened several years ago. I was very hesitant due to my own certification as a laser technician and the knowledge that many tattoo removal services are dangerous, scams, or just flat out no good. I was very impressed with Brian’s knowledge and equipment. If I remember correctly, I drilled him pretty good. I had to stop treatments after only 5-6 due to pregnancy and then moving out of state. My tattoo has continued to fade over the year...s and most wouldn’t notice it unless close up. I’m extremely happy with the results Brian was able to achieve in only 5-6 treatments. With the damage in my tattoo, the depth of the ink, etc. I expected to need 10-12 treatments. If I could see a way to post a current picture on this review I would do so. I wouldn’t hesitate to see Brian again. In fact, I’m not sure I’ll ever finish my tattoo removal because I still don’t trust anyone else. See More Read Less

I have (2) tattoos that I acquired when I was 18, to me they were not tasteful and the individual that I am today. When I stepped into the shop I was greeted professionally and the studio itself is relaxing and super clean. I am very much impressed by how the sessions get done so quickly....under 10 minutes total for me! Brian is super professional and patient with wimpy customers such as myself. That being said...Thank you for giving me the opportunity to rid myself of bad memories that were penned in ink Read Less

I had my first treatment in May, I had waited 10 years to get this fantastic tattoo and the artist.....Jake at Hearts of Fire...just to drop names.....decided to add a couple touches of his own...not only that but this tattoo was a coverup....he didnt place the stencil in the correct place even for the coverup....full back peice people... so on a 10 year design for a coverup peice I found myself looking to remove his "permanent artistic touches" to my skin....I was of course ⋯⋯upset and didn't know where to turn or what to do....I decided to take control of my situation and instead of being embarressed with this tattoo....I wanted to correct his handyman work and continue on with the tattoo I have wanted all my life.....So I decided laser tattoo removal was my only hope of having a second chance at fixing the mistake and starting over....Yes it hurts....Yes its worth it....after 1 treatment it is soooo much lighter and after a couple more treatments I will be able to correct the "handyman" work of a guy who really doesnt care what he slaps on someones skin...I researched several laser tattoo removal services and....ON SECOND THOUGHT...hands down is the only choice....Brian was amazing and personable and very understanding of my situation....Literally in tears every time I talk about it....He took his time with me didnt rush me around, explained the process and the expectations for full tattoo removal....it is a process it doesn't happen overnight.....BUT IT DOES WORK!!! Brian....thank you for all you do....you have given me hope to correct this and the opportunity for me to someday be proud of the ink on my skin.... LOVE YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!! 查看更多 Read Less
