Testimonial - Partial Tattoo Removal
I recently began undergoing treatment with Aaron Gabrielse for a partial tattoo removal and have been very, very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend Aaron for this procedure.
On May 12th I added color behind an existing tattoo on the front of my right shoulder (photo below at left). I immediately knew I'd made a mistake in asking my artist to do this. I decided that I wanted to look into getting that part of the tattoo removed so I searched online and found The Cosmetic Laser Center.
I called and was able to speak with Aaron right away. The first thing that struck me was how extremely helpful he is. He took the time to explain to me all my options, to give me his email address so I could send him a picture of the tattoo (enabling him to give me a more accurate idea of what I was facing), and to schedule an appointment with me right away. I must also say that I truly appreciate that Aaron asked me to take a day or two to think about it to make sure it was indeed the path I wanted to take. He mentioned a lot of people end up with buyer's remorse right away after a tattoo and he wanted to make sure I was positive that I wanted it removed. Never once did I feel any pressure or as if I was getting a sales pitch to have the removal procedures done.
Once I had decided that I indeed wanted to have it removed I was lucky enough to be able to get an appointment with him in less than a week. The fact that Aaron travels to our part of the state was a huge benefit for me as the next closest treatment facility is over an hour away. Once at the appointment I was immediately comfortable with Aaron's relaxed and welcoming manner. I was made to feel right at ease and relaxed. Aaron took the time to carefully examine the tattoo (as he'd only seen pictures before), to go over everything we'd discussed before, and to thoroughly explain the procedure, the equipment used, the possible side effects, and the desired long-term effects.

Testimonial - Fixing A Botched Tattoo Removal From A Competitor
The picture shown here is a tattoo located on the backside of my left forearm. I had tattoo removal treatments at another unnamed place that left me very unsatisfied with the treatment of this particular tattoo. The clinic 
was a little bit impersonable and sort of stuffy, but they were offering a certain discount for the month of May for the introduction of their newest laser.
Even with the "discount" they were twice as much as The Cosmetic Laser Center, but I wanted to try it out anyway. Upon having the treatment done, it was quite a bit more painful than previous treatments I had done at The Cosmetic Laser Center. They also wrapped it with bandage materials and advised I used a triple antibiotic ointment for the aftercare as well. Later that night my arm had begun blistering something terrible, which I learned later is a sign of being over treated. The area had continued to blister for days, forcing me to wear bandages most of the time and having to repeatedly explain to people what was wrong with my arm....very annoying I might add and left me nervous that these blisters may lead to scarring.
