Why You Braved the Tattoo Needle, But Fear the Laser (And Why That’s About to Change)

You sat through hours of buzzing, needles, and aftercare. You knew it would sting (especially that rib piece), but you did it anyway. So why does the idea of laser tattoo removal make even the boldest ink-lover hesitate?

We hear it all the time at Goodphoria Laser Treatments:

“I heard it hurts more than the tattoo.”
“Does it even work?”
“I’m too scared to start.”

Let’s clear the air. Because spoiler alert: laser removal isn’t the villain, it’s your second chance in disguise.

Laser Fear vs Tattoo Bravery

Tattoo Pain = Expected. Laser Pain = Unknown.

Getting tattooed is a weird kind of fun pain. You prep for it, psych yourself up, and then show it off.

Laser removal? It’s still wrapped in mystery for many looking for tattoo removal in Badhoevedorp. But here’s the truth: modern Pico lasers (like ours!) are nothing like what your cousin’s mate described from 2009.

It feels like a warm flick or elastic sting, and treatments are over in minutes. Literally. You’ll spend more time choosing your post-removal smoothie than in the chair.

Common Myths 

Myth #1: “It Hurts More Than the Tattoo”

Not exactly. With our Pico laser, clients say it’s “weirdly satisfying” and way less intense than they imagined.

If you’ve survived a spine tattoo or your first heartbreak, you can handle this.

Myth #2: “It Won’t Work on My Tattoo”

We work with all skin types and most tattoo colours. Some shades take more sessions, but Pico lasers break down ink faster and more gently than older machines.

Whether you're after a full clean slate or just fading for a juicy cover-up, we’ve got you ‘un'covered.

Myth #3: “It’s Too Expensive”

You didn’t blink at a €600 thigh piece, so let’s put things into perspective.
Laser removal is an investment in YOU, your confidence, your skin, your freedom to change your mind.

At Goodphoria Laser Treatments, we keep pricing realistic and treatments small and focused. Start with a patch test. You’re in control, always.

Myth #4: “I Should Just Live With It”

Nah. Regret isn’t rebellious. You can love who you were when you got the tattoo and decide you’ve outgrown it.

Removing ink doesn’t erase your story, it turns the page.
