How Much is Tattoo Removal

Understanding the costs associated with tattoo removal.

Thinking about removing a tattoo and curious about the costs involved? At OSCO, we believe in transparency and helping you understand the factors that influence tattoo removal pricing.


Factors Influencing Tattoo Removal Costs

  • Tattoo Size: Smaller tattoos generally cost less to remove, while larger pieces require more time and resources, increasing the overall cost.

  • Tattoo Colour: Darker inks like black and blue are typically easier and quicker to remove, potentially reducing the number of sessions needed. In contrast, lighter colours such as yellow and green may require more sessions, affecting the total cost.

  • Ink Density and Age: Older tattoos or those with less ink density may fade faster, potentially lowering removal costs. Newer tattoos or those with heavy ink saturation might need additional      sessions.

  • Skin Type and Location: Your skin type and the tattoo's location can impact the removal process's complexity and duration, influencing the cost.


Average Cost per Session in the UK

The cost of laser tattoo removal in the UK varies based on the factors mentioned above. On average, you can expect to pay:

  • Small Tattoos (up to 3cm x3cm): Approximately £55 to £80 per session.

  • Medium Tattoos (up to 10cm x10cm): Around £140 per session.

  • Large Tattoos (up to 25cm x25cm): Between £300 to £400 per session.

Keep in mind that these are average figures, and actual costs can vary based on individual circumstances.


Number of Sessions Required

Most tattoos require multiple sessions for complete removal, typically ranging from 6 to 12 sessions. The exact number depends on factors like tattoo size, colour, ink depth, and your skin's response to treatment.


Package Deals and Discounts

Many clinics offer package deals or discounts for booking multiple sessions upfront, which can reduce the overall cost. It's worth discussing these options during your consultation.


At OSCO, we offer personalised consultations to assess your tattoo and provide a tailored treatment plan, including a cost estimate. This ensures you have a clear understanding of the process and associated expenses before beginning treatment.
