WHAT SETS US APART
The Molecular Method
At Molecular Beauty MD, laser tattoo removal is guided by personalization and precision. We begin with a detailed consultation to assess your skin tone, tattoo color, ink depth, and your overall goals. Whether you are aiming for full removal or just lightening for a future cover-up, we create a customized plan that aligns with your vision and supports your skin every step of the way.
We use the Rohrer Spectrum Q-Switched Laser, which targets pigment with ultra-short pulses of energy. The ink particles shatter beneath the skin and are gradually flushed away by your body’s lymphatic system. Treatments are spaced out to allow your body time to heal and naturally fade the pigment. The result? A gentler, safer approach to visible tattoo reduction, delivered by a team dedicated to your safety, comfort and results.
