Many people want to remove a tattoo but postpone it because they don't know where to start.
We'll briefly explain how our clinic performs tattoo removal and when it's best to start.
R-Zero Method Using a Special Medication
Our clinic performs tattoo removal using the R-Zero method.
The R-Zero treatment involves applying a special medication to the tattooed area. This allows for up to four repeated treatments in a single session. You can find more details about the procedure in R-Zero Pico-Frectat Tattoo Removal.

Our clinic is staffed by dermatology specialists and possesses excellent expertise in scar prevention treatment.
- We have extensive experience and know-how accumulated over many years in the field of scars.
- We perform procedures in a way that minimizes scars that may remain after tattoo removal.
Methods for addressing scars are summarized in Pinhole for Burn & Surgical Scar.
Anesthesia to Reduce Pain Burden
One of the concerns with tattoo removal is pain. Our clinic performs procedures to minimize pain.
We use various anesthesia methods to alleviate pain, aiming to reduce discomfort and provide comfort during the procedure. The perception of pain may vary among individuals.
When is the Best Time to Remove a Tattoo?
Many people ask when is the best time to remove a tattoo. The answer is earlier than you might think.
Tattoos can be removed immediately after they are done.
If you regret getting a tattoo, we recommend starting removal right away with a dermatology specialist, even before the wound heals.
