As the summer season approaches, many individuals eagerly anticipate their holidays, seeking relaxation and fun. However, for some, the impulse to commemorate their holiday with a spontaneous tattoo can lead to regret once the tan fades and reality sets in upon their return. 

According to a 2024 Research and Markets report the demand for tattoo removal procedures in the UK has witnessed a significant surge in recent years, with one in nine people here choosing to remove at least one unwanted tattoo. 

In response to this growing demand, SKN Clinics laser tattoo removal services show us the many ways their Laser tattoo removal can help individuals reclaim their skin confidence and the safest ways of doing it.

Summer Memories and Impulsive Tattoos

Many people choose to commemorate their summer experiences with tattoos, often in the spur of the moment or while on holiday but these impulsive decisions can lead to regret once the summer season ends and individuals return to their everyday lives. 

We spoke to Charlotte Lundy, Regional Nurse Trainer at sk:n Clinics to get the key facts about tattoo removal and she advises that “once the area has fully healed you can start have it removed – however at sk:n we normally like to wait a period of time to make sure you are certain about the decision.”

 

Exposure and Visibility

Summer is a time when more skin is exposed due to warmer weather and outdoor activities. Tattoos that were once hidden beneath layers of clothing may become more visible during the summer months, leading individuals to reconsider their decision to keep them. Laser tattoo removal offers a solution for those who wish to remove unwanted tattoos and feel more confident in their skin, especially during the summer when exposure is heightened. If individuals are looking to remove their tattoos now in time for summer Charlotte recommends that the number of sessions “really does vary on individuals. Skin type and the size and colours of a tattoo can make a difference. Also, it depends on the end result you are wishing for, whether it's complete removal or fading for a cover-up.  I would suggest booking in for a consultation at sk:n and the experienced practitioner can let you know how many sessions you need.”

Fresh Starts and Renewal

Summer often symbolises a fresh start, as people go on holidays, engage in outdoor activities, and spend time with loved ones. Similarly, laser tattoo removal represents a chance for individuals to renew their skin and reclaim their confidence by removing tattoos that no longer align with their current lifestyles or personal preferences. Just as the summer season brings new opportunities, laser tattoo removal offers a path to a fresh beginning for those seeking to erase the past and embrace a new chapter in their lives. So if individuals are serious about removing their tattoos in time for summer to get the best results Charlotte Lundy suggests making sure ‘you are in good health, after all, we are putting pressure on your body's natural immune system – so make sure you are eating a well-balanced diet, keeping hydrated and plenty of rest! Avoid sun exposure is key and keeping the area cool – aftercare products can be purchased from sk:n when you buy a package of tattoo removal.”
