Remove a tattoo
Do you want to remove a tattoo?
Bye Bad Tattoo offers you the most effective tattoo removal solution at the right price.
In just a few sessions, say bye bye to that tattoo that no longer belongs on your body and in your life.
At Bye Bad Tattoo, all tattoos can be removed. The laser technology used in our centers allows us to treat all ink colors and all skin phototypes. However, the quality of the implanted pigments will be a determining factor on the number of sessions and the final result.
The picosecond laser offers a complete tattoo removal, without leaving any trace and with a pain equivalent to that of a tattoo session, but with a much shorter duration. For more comfort and to reduce the tingling felt during the sessions, we recommend the application of an anesthetic cream 60 minutes before your appointment.
With our online quote tool, calculate the cost of your tattoo removal quickly and easily. Our application will also allow you to simulate your tattoo removal and to follow the removal of your tattoo session after session!

1 - The consultation
The very first step is a consultation with one of our Bye Bad Tattoo experts at the center of your choice. First of all, it will allow us to understand your objectives (remove the traces of the past, remove the tattoo for a better tattoo, prepare the skin before a new tattoo…). During this session, we will introduce you to the health questionnaire. A MedTest will also be performed in order to assess the reaction of the pigment to the picosecond laser and thus evaluate the feasibility of the treatment and define the number of sessions.
This 30-minute consultation with a Bye Bad Tattoo expert is not free. However, it is included in all Bye Bad Tattoo packages.
Following this first appointment, tattoo removal sessions will follow every 6 to 8 weeks depending on the healing cycle of your skin.
The picosecond laser allows for a tattoo removal in 6 to 10 sessions, the number depending on the depth of the pigment implantation and the quality of the ink used.
2 - A few days before the session
Read the “Recommendations” section. Apart from following these recommendations such as avoiding sun exposure, there is nothing to do before your tattoo removal sessions.
3 - Before the session
For more comfort, apply an EMLA-type anesthetic cream 60 minutes before your appointment and cover the area with plastic wrap.
4 - During the session
Our experts will prepare your skin before the laser treatment by disinfecting the area. The duration of a session is generally very short and depends on the surface of the area to be detatched. After the laser treatment, your skin will be disinfected again and a healing cream will be applied as well as a bandage if there is a risk of rubbing. Red LED light therapy can be performed to accelerate healing and regenerate tissue.
5 - After the session
Read and follow the “Recommendations” section. Apply the healing cream to the treated area 3 to 4 times a day for the first week, then 1 to 2 times a day for 1 month.
6 - At the end of the treatment
At the end of the treatment, your skin will be as good as new, free of all traces of the past!
