Expert Laser Tattoo Removal in Reno

Conveniently located to serve Reno, Carson City & Gardnerville

More than 45 million people in the United States have one or more tattoos and, sometimes, they regret their decision. If you’re ready for laser tattoo removal in Reno, benefit from Spectrum Q-switched laser treatments by the fellowship trained, Ivy League educated Dr. Kyle Yamamoto. Serving as the best tattoo removal system available today for numerous hues of ink, the laser breaks tattoo ink down into small particles that are naturally filtered through the body with minimal risk.

Am I a Candidate for Laser Tattoo Removal?

The location of your tattoos can make a difference with ones placed in areas with greater body fat (arms, legs, chest, and buttocks) being more straightforward to remove than ones in areas of lesser fat. People with lighter skin may be better candidates than those with darker skin although it makes sense to get a professional opinion across skin tones. Simple tattoos, not surprisingly, are easier to remove than more complex ones. To get professional advice about the best tattoo removal for your specific situation, consult with Dr. Yamamoto. The procedure may take multiple treatments for successful laser tattoo removal and is typically done as an outpatient procedure with local anesthesia.

Why to Choose Dr. Yamamoto for Laser Tattoo Removal

Dr. Yamamoto is the first full-time, fellowship trained, double-board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon in Northern Nevada. Besides his considerable education, training, and board certifications, he is an associate clinical professor at the University of Nevada School of Medicine.

Growing up in Reno, Dr. Yamamoto came back home to open his office in the heart of the city. His modern office is conveniently located just minutes away from the Reno Tahoe International Airport and within walking distance of the Reno Convention Center and the Atlantis Resort and Casino.

The doctor customizes each procedure for laser tattoo removal in Reno based on the specifics, carefully listening to the client’s goals before recommending the treatment. Known for his relaxed bedside manner, Dr. Yamamoto is easy to talk to about concerns and questions.

When not helping clients with plastic surgery needs, he plays golf, engages in fitness and outdoor activities, travels, and enjoys time with his family.

Expected Results

After your initial Reno tattoo removal, you can expect to see significant fading of the ink, perhaps especially at the borders. As you receive the recommended number of tattoo removal treatments, the fading will continue and, for many people, the former tattoo is largely invisible. Because each situation is unique, Dr. Yamamoto will discuss the best laser tattoo removal process for your specific circumstances. Particulars that will impact results can include the size of the tattoo, the amount of ink used, the ink colors, tattoo location, and chemical ink makeup.
