At Clean Skin Laser Tattoo Removal in Mount Cotton, we take a different approach to your tattoo removal journey. You will see other clinics asking you to fill out “tattoo assessment forms” online before you even step through the door. While these forms may look like they’re designed to give you accurate answers, the truth is, they are often more of a marketing tool to give the illusion that the treatment expectation they provide to you is calculated than it is a medical necessity.
We believe in keeping things honest, simple, and transparent—which is why we don’t make you go through unnecessary forms before your consultation.
The Problem With Tattoo Assessment Forms
Many clinics use online tattoo removal assessment forms to:
Capture your personal details for marketing follow-ups
Provide a “tattoo score” or estimated treatment plan to encourage you to book in
Create the impression of a calculated and personalised medical assessment (when it’s really not)
The reality is: no online form can predict how many treatments your tattoo will need. There are simply too many factors at play.
What Really Determines Tattoo Removal Success
At Clean Skin Laser, we’ve seen thousands of tattoos—and we know that every tattoo fades differently and there's many factors that affect tattoo removal that cannot be determined on a tattoo assessment for including:
Ink density – ever heard the phrase "bold will hold"? The heavier the ink is tattooed into your skin the more treatments it will take to break down
Depth of the ink in your skin/multi layered tattoos – the deeper the ink the further the laser needs to penetrate the skin to break it down, coverups or tattoos that have been touched up will have multiple layers of ink at different depths requiring more treatments
Professional vs amateur tattoos – professional tattoos are usually harder to remove
The general health of the client, more specifically how their immune and lymphatic system function – once the laser has done its thing its up to the clients body to heal the ink away, if their lymphatic system is clogged or their immune compromised this will significantly effect how well the ink is healed away
No online quiz or assessment form can measure these details accurately. That’s why we prefer to give you an in-person consultation where we can explain everything clearly, answer your questions, and give you realistic expectations based on experience.
