Why NIXX is Your Top Pick for Arm Tattoo Removal in the BC Lower Mainland
Proven Laser Technology
After just three sessions at NIXX
The most advanced laser technology is critical to a successful arm tattoo removal. That technology is PicoSure. It gets its name from the fact that it employs picosecond (equal to one trillionth of a second) bursts of laser to the ink, which breaks the ink down into infinitesimal particles that are “captured” by your body’s lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a group of organs, vessels and tissues that protect you from infection and keep a healthy balance of fluids throughout your body. What this all means, is that the PicoSure laser system initiates a process than depends upon your body’s natural defenses to take care of the rest. It’s the most organic way (so to speak) to remove tattoo ink, and the most effective. Benefits of PicoSure include the following:
Safest removal
Shorter session duration
Fewer sessions required
Dramatically reduced potential for scarring and longterm discoloration
Works on all skin types
Most effective end result (no tattoo!)
Given these benefits, NIXX will work for all parts of the arm:
Forearm
Hand
Upper arm
Wrist
NIXX technicians (view bios) exclusively use PicoSure laser, which you can learn more about here.

A behind-the-ear tattoo seemed like a safe bet awhile back when you had it done. It remained hidden behind your coiffure and wasn’t exactly something you see in the mirror every day.

You have now become self-conscious about a tattoo that you were never that stoked about in the first place.

Face Tattoo Removal Vancouver
Modern society is far more accepting of face tattoos than it was even just a few short years ago. When a design is well thought out, and applied by the hand of an expert tattooist the end result can be a wonderful representation of someone’s personality and individual brand. However, the scenario just described is not always the case. A face tattoo (like with any tattoo) may have been the consequence of a spontaneous decision or reaction to an event or time in one’s life that its wearer has now moved beyond. Given that you’re searching for a face tattoo removal near you we’re betting you know exactly what we’re talking about.
NIXX exists for those in your position. We are Greater Vancouver BC’s top laser tattoo removal studio, and to be honest, are the only service to consider for this highly sensitive procedure. Please read ahead to find out why.

Why Choose NIXX in Vancouver When You Need to Remove a Face Tattoo
Face Tattoo Laser Removal
Face Tattoo Removal - After Four Treatments
While true for any part of the body, state-of-the-art laser technology is especially critical for a face tattoo. There is certainly no room for error or avoidable scarring unless you plan to wear a ski mask to social and professional functions for the remainder of your life.
While there are other clinics that offer laser services, most use technologies that are not quite up to par for the deeply-applied ink on your cheek, cheekbone region, chin, jawline, brow, forehead, or entire mug. Q-switched lasers are an example of tech to avoid for this most sensitive of areas.
NIXX on the other hand, employs the world’s leading face tattoo laser removal technology. PicoSure applies lightning fast (picosecond, technically) laser to break ink down into microscopic particles that are subsequently removed by your body’s lymphatic system. That’s correct, our tech takes advantage of your innate natural defenses to get rid of an unwanted face tattoo. As a result, already low chances of irritation and scarring are further reduced. Moreover, fewer sessions are required to see the end result (zero face tattoo).In a number of cases (smaller face tattoos) only one or two sessions are required.
Careful Touch of Laser Removal Experts
Face Tattoo Removal - Another NIXX Success
The greatest laser technology in the world won’t matter if placed in the wrong hands. You’ll be pleased to know that NIXX has in its employ one of the top laser tattoo removal technicians in all of North America. Think we’re exaggerating? Check out our lead technician’s profile (Craig Gilbert) right here. In addition, Craig has trained our two other technicians to ensure that every face that walks through out door gets the best possible treatment.
Face Tattoo Removal Cost
If a laser clinic quotes a specific price for a face tattoo removal on their website or brochure, run in the other direction. This is a highly variable job which depends upon where on the face the tattoo is, color and depth of ink tone, skin sensitivity and how long it generally takes your skin to heal (for more than one session considerations). What we can offer you, is a FREE consultation. It won’t cost you a thing to have our expert technician’s analyze your tattoo. From there they can provide a more accurate estimate. You literally have nothing to lose, beyond that unwanted face tattoo.

Chest Tattoo Laser Removal
Unlike with your back (view back tattoo removal) you have little choice but to look directly at your chest every day of the week. When it has an unwanted ink job on it, it makes you want to smash the mirror even if it means incurring seven years of bad luck. This undesirable chest tattoo may also keep you from wearing tank tops, unbuttoned button-ups, and even makes you feel uncomfortable about going shirtless at the beach, pool, or local gym locker room. You’ve had enough of feeling this way and living with regret, which is why you have come online to find a solution. You know that surgical excision is wrought with potential complications and is therefore off-limits, and you also know that dermabrasion is ultimately ineffective. This has you making the smart decision to search for a chest tattoo laser removal service near you. If located anywhere in the BC Lower Mainland there is just one place to visit for this specific task - NIXX Laser Tattoo Removal. Below is a breakdown of why we’re the best for chest tattoo removals in the 604 / 778 area code.
Why Choose NIXX for Chest Tattoo Laser Removal in Vancouver BC
Leading Laser for Chest Tattoo Removal
Given the visible nature of the chest (at least in the summer months) there is simply no room for scarring or shoddy work. For this reason you want to avoid Q-switched lasers which are unfortunately used by most tattoo shops in Vancouver that provide laser removal services. Our Vancouver BC studio (get directions from your address) on the other hand, uses state-of-the-art laser tattoo removal technology. The PicoSure system applies lightning-fast picosecond bursts of laser to break body ink down into microscopic particles. Once done, the remnants are naturally expelled from your skin through your body’s lymphatic system. View more on this all-natural PicoSure technology right here, and get to know your NIXX laser technicians here.
Chest Tattoo Removal Before & After (in progress)
The following work-in-progress shows a before-and-after chest tattoo removal on a client after just two sessions at our Vancouver studio. That’s right - just two sessions!

Why Pick NIXX for Back Tattoo Removal in Vancouver BC
Leading Laser for Back Tattoo Removal
Our Vancouver BC studio (get directions from your address) employs the latest in laser tattoo removal technology. This tech applies fast picosecond bursts of laser to break apart ink into microscopic particles. From here, the particles are organically expelled from your skin through your body’s lymphatic system. It’s a natural, minimally invasive, non-surgical process that requires fewer sessions (than other lasers), is less painful (than excisions and other lasers), and delivers superior results. Your back tattoo will be obliterated by the time we’re done!
Lower Back Tattoo Removal Specialists
When it comes to placement, lower back tattoos rank at the top of the list of the most regretted. They were wildly popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, but soon after an unfair stigma was placed upon the wearer. Whether this stigma bothers you or you’re simply not happy with the design any longer, you want your lower back tattoo removed. Chances of early success (just a couple of sessions) are great because it is smaller than a full back tattoo, and especially so when the laser technology referenced above is applied. Any one of our laser technicians can take on the project..
BOOK YOUR LOWER BACK TATTOO REMOVAL
Full Back Tattoo Removal Specialists
Full back tattoo removal procedures logically call for a greater number of sessions. Further, given that they are more complex (full murals, etc.) you will likely require the experienced hand of the best laser tattoo removal expert in the city, province, and even country. NIXX is proud to confirm that we are home to the best in the business - Craig Gilbert. Craig’s skill level with full back tattoo removal is unparalleled.

Stomach Tattoo Removal Vancouver BC
There are a variety of reasons for wanting a stomach tattoo removed. For most people, it’s because they simply don’t like the design any longer. Or maybe they never did due to tattooist error and/or miscommunication. Others want it removed if their body has undergone a significant change in size and/or skin elasticity. After all, the stomach is one of the most vulnerable parts on the body when it comes to visible weight gain, which can impact the way an old tattoo looks as the body ages and adjusts to life’s changes. Others want it removed in anticipation of a major life transition. For instance, a woman who wants to get pregnant and has a stomach tattoo understands that significant stretching to come may render the tattoo a mere shadow of what it was intended to look like. Alternatively, someone may have had a tattoo applied to an especially robust belly, but now has every intention in trimming down to a healthier size and acknowledges that the tattoo they have now won’t work for the new version of themselves.
Whatever your reason may be for seeking a stomach tattoo removal service, you need to find a studio you can trust to get the job done right. If located in the BC Lower Mainland there is no better place to go for a lower (or upper) abdomen tattoo removal. Let’s find out why.
Why NIXX is the Best Place in Vancouver BC for Stomach Tattoo Removal
Effective with Fewer Treatments
Our Vancouver BC laser tattoo removal studio (get directions) uses what is widely considered to be the best laser removal technology in the entire world. And we’re not being hyperbolic. The PicoSure system employs laser that “vibrates” at a picosecond (one trillionth of a second) rate to breakdown ink particles into their smallest form. These microscopic molecules are then removed by your body’s lymphatic system. That’s right, the technology uses your body’s own natural defenses as a part of the final process of the ink removal. Of course, in order for this laser system to be effective, it must be applied under the skillful hand and eye of technicians who have been trained in the art (and it is an art) of laser removal.
You can learn more about the laser technology right here, and meet your technicians here, if you desire. Ultimately, what you really need to know is that the one-plus-one equation of premium tech paired with trained specialists equates effective treatments in fewer sessions than would be required with antiquated techniques being applied by most Vancouver clinics and studios.
The image below shows a sizable tattoo removal in-progress by a NIXX technician. This is what the stomach tattoo removal looks like after just five sessions. Pretty soon it will be gone from the skin and wiped from the client’s memory. Have a look at other completed works and works-in-progress on NIXX’s Instagram profile.

Butt Tattoo Removal Vancouver BC
We admit that the title of today’s feature may get a few giggles, but as it turns out the butt, rear, or posterior (whatever you want to call it) is indeed the focal point of a significant number of tattoo removal requests. One in particular is searched online within the region with oddly regular frequency:

Why Choose NIXX When You Need a Tattoo Removed from Your Rear in Vancouver BC
Professional Technicians for Your Preferences
The buttocks are up there when it comes to sensitive areas on the body for getting tattooed and having the tattoo removed. If you’re particularly bashful, you may not be comfortable having just anyone lay their hands on your rear to perform the removal procedure. Some may prefer that a woman do the job, or a man. You have a choice at NIXX. We have a gender-diverse staff who just so happen to be among Vancouver’s top tattoo removal specialists. You can meet the team right here and schedule your consultation with the technician you prefer.
Effective Results in Fewer Sessions
You’re tired of looking at your rear in the mirror which bears the blunt mark of an unwanted tattoo. However, you’re also concerned about the “transition” period as the tattoo is gradually removed. It’s one thing to have a work of body art that bothers you, and another to have what looks to be a large blemish. The latter is what can remain even after multiple sessions with lower quality tattoo removal services. And in some unfortunate circumstances the tattoo may never be permanently removed. This is unacceptable for one of your (and your partner’s) favorite parts of your body.
Thankfully, you’ve come to NIXX for butt tattoo removal. We use industry-leading picosecond laser technology which breaks down ink particles down while leveraging your body’s natural defenses for greater safety and effectiveness. The end result is tattoo removal that actually works, and requires fewer overall sessions. Depending on the size and color/tone of the tattoo it could be done in just one or two visits to our Vancouver studio! Read more about our laser tattoo removal technology.

Hip Tattoo Removal Vancouver BC
Your hips function to balance the upper body during stance and gait (manner of walking). The balance and stability provided by your hip joints allow for motion while supporting the forces that are encountered during daily activities. Consequently, an injured hip can have a very negative impact on a sufferer’s quality of life. While a bad tattoo doesn’t quite count as an “injury”, it can indeed compromise how someone feels about themselves. Given that you’re looking for hip tattoo removal near you in the BC Lower Mainland, it’s safe to say that you’re among this latter group. The great news, is that you’re here. NIXX is the only place to turn to for hip tattoo removal. You can book a FREE consultation with one of our technicians right away, or read ahead first for further insight.
Why NIXX is Where to Go for a Hip Tattoo Removal in Vancouver BC
Safest and Most Effective Hip Tattoo Removal Service
See the image above which features work recently completed at our Vancouver studio? The hips don’t lie (sorry, had to) when it comes to showing the effectiveness of our service. Complete and scar-free hip tattoo removal to this degree is made possible through NIXX because of our handpicked technology. Our expert technicians use PicoSure picosecond laser tech. PicoSure is not just the preferred laser removal system in Vancouver, but the entire world. Simply put, our studio made the investment in PicoSure because it’s safe, effective, and requires fewer sessions than the alternatives. You can read more about how it works right here.
Want a Better Hip Tattoo Instead?
You love the thought of having a hip tattoo. The size, curvature, and “canvas area” for this particular part of the body is extremely accommodating to body art. The problem, is that either the tattooist who applied it the first time didn’t do what you hoped for, or you no longer find the design/theme as appealing as you once did. If you still desire a tattoo but want a new one replaced with a new design/theme, NIXX has you covered. Our technology and expertise can be applied to fade the current tattoo just enough so that a new and improved tattoo can be applied over top. Once the faded tattoo on your hip has fully healed, you can take advantage of our in-house tattooing service. Given that NIXX is located within the top tattoo shop in Vancouver (get directions) you will enjoy receiving your cover-up in a place that already feels like home. Better yet, your removal technician and tattooist-to-be benefit from being able to communicate to one another to ensure that you receive the best removal + coverup service possible.

Ankle Tattoo Removal Vancouver BC
The ankle is comprised of the tibia, fibula, and talus. Collectively these components control lower extremity muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments that support body weight, provide balance, and allow a range of mobility to the foot. Our ankles are therefore charged with stabilizing and balancing the body, and absorbing friction caused by different movements. That’s the boring musculoskeletal description of their purpose.
From a metaphysical perspective, the ankle is known to symbolize strength, power, protection, and also represents a person’s ability to receive pleasure. Affirming that these connections hold true, alternative wellness practitioners indicate that a physical impediment (injury, etc.) to the ankles may compromise one’s emotional, mental, and sexual wellbeing. While a bad ankle tattoo isn’t an injury per se, it can cause the wearer to have negative feelings about themselves, and may throw their sense of strength, power, protection, and general wellness out the window. Or maybe it doesn’t impact your any of the above. Regardless, you want the tattoo gone. If located in the Greater Vancouver BC area there is only one studio to step to for this specific service; NIXX.

Why Choose NIXX for Ankle Tattoo Removal in Vancouver BC
Done in One or Very Few Sessions
Because NIXX tattoo removal specialists use industry leading laser technology (view here) it is possible for a small ankle tattoo to be removed in one session, depending upon size and depth of tone. In nearly all cases an ankle tattoo removal can be completed in three sessions or under. Send us a close-up photo of the tattoo and we will get back to you to discuss next steps.
Extremely Low Risk of Scarring
Ankles are typically visible unless you wear pull-up socks every day. This visibility is a big part of why you want the unwanted tattoo removed. However, you may be concerned that removal will replace it with a scar. Such a thing would defeat the purpose for seeking our type of service in the first place. Scarring is quite possible with surgical excisions and antiquated types of laser (such as q-switch laser). The good news is that NIXX uses PicoSure picosecond laser technology which leverages your body’s natural defenses to break down and remove ink particles. This tech offers extremely low risk of any scarring, whatsoever.
NIXX Enables Ankle Tattoo Cover-Ups
Is it just the design/theme of the ankle tattoo that makes it unwanted? Do you wish the design/theme was of something else, or generally the same but done by a more talented tattooist? This is another value proposition that sets NIXX apart from the rest. Our service is located on West 4th Avenue in Kitsilano, within one of Vancouver’s top tattoo studios (get directions). Instead of outright removal, our technicians can fade the tattoo to the point that an on-premesis tattoo artist can cover it up, once it has fully healed after fading. View more on our tattoo fading for coverup service.

Leg Tattoo Removal Vancouver BC
Upper thighs, lower thighs, knees, calves, and shins are all an ideal canvas for a tattoo. However, things don’t always work out with the design as expected. Or, as time passes and passions/tastes change, a tattoo may no longer be as appealing to its owner as it once was. You can likely relate considering that you’re searching for information on leg tattoo removal.
Given the investment required, you’re doing your due diligence prior to selecting which service is best suited to your goal. In the spring and summer months your lower limbs are highly visible, so that last thing you want is to have to wear pants or an ankle length skirt/dress to hide a poor attempt at removal. The latter can look worse than the tattoo you wanted gone in the first place. Thankfully you’ve arrived here at NIXX, You can book your consultation right now via this link, or read ahead first to learn more about why we’re BC’s top pick for leg tattoo removal.
Why Come to NIXX for Leg Tattoo Removal in Vancouver BC
Safer, More Effective, and Fewer Sessions
Compared to ineffective dermabrasion, archaic surgical excision, and the outdated q-switch laser that a number of anachronistic clinics in Vancouver still use, NIXX laser tattoo removal is light years ahead. Our expert technicians employ Picosure laser technology, which is a state-of-the-art method that only the most reputable laser removal studios in the world use. For one, it’s safer, with extremely little to no risk of complications (irritations, infections, scarring, etc.). Furthermore, fewer sessions are required to see results. For smaller leg tattoos a single session can get the job done, although it typically takes two or three for medium tattoos, and generally more for larger and darker toned designs. Ultimately, the unwanted tattoo that you want gone will be gone with the appropriate sessions. Upload photos of your leg tattoo and we can provide you with an estimate.
Examples of Leg Tattoo Removal at NIXX Vancouver
Below are a few examples of leg tattoo removals along with works in progress. We don’t just want to show you traditional before-and-after photos as it’s important for you to see what progress is like after one, two, and three sessions. This gives you a better idea of what to expect, and also opens your mind up to the possibility of using our service to “fade” your tattoo instead. In doing so, a cover-up with a new tattoo can be applied, should that be the route you want to take. View more on our tattoo lightening for cover-up service (if applicable).

Whether it was a botched job or your fetish for a foot tattoo was fleeting, you no longer want it on your peddle-pushers. In the past, your tootsies may have been stuck without an effective option, but foot tattoo removal is a few short steps away for locals and visitors to the Greater Vancouver BC area.

Why NIXX is the First and Only Step to Take for Foot Tattoo Removal in Vancouver BC
Effective with Fewer Treatments
Image: progress after just two treatments!
The primary considerations that you’re interested in are effectiveness and limited number of treatments required. In the image above you can see that our technicians were able to generate notable progress in just two treatments for a fairly large foot tattoo. In about two to three more sessions the tattoo will be removed.
How is the progress above possible after just two sessions?
It’s the result of the system that we use at NIXX. Our expert staff has been outfitted with and trained in the art of the Picosure Laser Tattoo Removal system. Picosure’s state of the art laser technology is superior to that of all other removal options in Vancouver. The latter includes Q-switch lasers, dermabrasion, and surgical excision. View more on tattoo removal options/alternatives and why Picosure is superior.
Foot Tattoo Fading for Cover-Up Instead?
The reason we chose to show you the foot tattoo removal in-progress above (vs completion) is to provide an example of what fading is like. Laser fading is a technique that breaks the ink down just enough to lighten the tattoo and remove deep dark tones so that a cover-up is easy to apply. This option is preferred by those who still want a foot tattoo, but of a design/style that they actually desire. Given that most foot tattoos are small, adequate fading may be complete in just one session. Once healed, a new tattoo can be applied and your foot will enjoy a renewed aesthetic! The best part, is that NIXX Laser Tattoo Removal is located within Adrenaline VanCity Kits (get directions here). This allows you to get re-inked in the very same place that cleared the canvas to make it possible. This provides peace of mind to clients that won’t be found with cosmetic-only clinics in Vancouver.

Why NIXX is the Best Choice for Neck Tattoo Removal in the BC Lower Mainland
Effective and Experienced in Neck Tattoo Removal
The featured image above is an example of neck tattoo removal work done at NIXX. We wanted to share one of the most extreme examples. The tattoo is large, all-encompassing (of the neck area) and the design is detailed and complicated. This was not a job that could be done effectively at most laser clinics in Western Canada.
How was this made possible?
SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY
While other clinics use antiquated technology (view those poor options here) NIXX uses the most advanced laser system on the market.

Why Vancouver Locals (and Visitors) Choose NIXX for Small Tattoo Removals
Done in Just One or Two Sessions?
NIXX employs a state-of-the-art laser system that delivers 755nm energy in picoseconds. That means the laser operates at one trillionth of a second, and has a pulse width that is 100 times faster than the other method used by some laser clinics in Vancouver; Q-Switched laser (which is a poor alternative). Small tattoos can generally be removed in just one or two sessions. There may be some rare caveats to that estimation, so feel free to ask us right here.
Like it Never Happened (the tattoo)
To reiterate the assessment of the PicoSure system that we referenced above (view further details), delivery is so rapid that it spares the skin from high thermal damage. It does so while optimally targeting undesired pigment, while minimizing downtime (healing). Within a few weeks of your procedure you’ll forget that you ever had a tattoo. Unless you still want one? Keep reading.
Fading a Small Tattoo for Cover Up
Your first thought was to simply get rid of the small tattoo. However, maybe you still want one? Just because someone wants to desperately end a bad relationship does not mean that they don’t want to find love with someone else. Yep, that analogy directly applies to a tattoo cover up situation!
NIXX has the distinct advantage of being located within one Vancouver’s top tattoo “brand” locations; Adrenaline VanCity Kitsilano. Instead of having the ink completely removed, you can have it faded to the point that any cover-up design of your desire can be put in its place. Fading for a small tattoo can be done in one session, and as soon as it heals you can return to our clinic for your pre-scheduled cover up tattoo if that’s the route you prefer. This is yet another advantage of choosing NIXX over laser clinics in the Greater Vancouver BC area.

Tattoo Removal Options and Alternatives
You’re ready to get rid of an unwanted work of body art and are deciding upon the best course of action. You’ve received opinions from friends and others, maybe TikTok, but you want insight from those in-the-know. You also need a solution that is available where you live, which is here in Vancouver BC. So what are your tattoo removal options and alternatives? While there is ultimately only one recommended course of action (we’ll get to that below) we feel that it’s important to address the ones being marketed to you, so that you also know what to avoid. Let’s review!

Let’s review!
3 Tattoo Removal Alternatives and 1 That is the Only Option to Consider for Your Health and Safety
——————————————————
Dermabrasion (avoid)
There are cosmetic clinics located everywhere from West Broadway to West Vancouver that claim to offer effective tattoo removal through dermabrasion.
Dermabrasion is a process by which the skin (with the tattoo on it) is sanded down to deeper levels of the epidermis with a high-speed rotary device that employs an abrasive wheel or brush. Yes, you read that right - your skin would be sanded down. Sure, they generally numb the area first, but does that provide you with peace of mind? Sorry, but sanding is for wood furniture and cast iron pans, not human skin. The potential for scarring (physical and emotional) and infection is too high with this supposed tattoo removal option.
Surgical Removal (avoid)
Sanding not for you? How does slicing the layer of skin off sound? That’s what surgical tattoo excision is. It’s a one-time procedure done by a scalpel wielding plastic surgeon. The procedure generally takes from one to several hours, depending on the size of the tattoo and the surgeon's “repair” method. This not-so-attractive tattoo removal alternative comes with all of the risks of any surgery, and can also lead to significant scaring and longterm discoloration of the area.
Q-Switch Laser (avoid)
We’re honestly surprised to find that cosmetic laser clinics and tattoo studios market the fact that they offer Q-switch laser as the preferred option for tattoo removal. Do they not care to invest in better technology for their clients and patients? In every reputable comparison, Q-switch “tech” loses to the state-of-the-art PicoSure (a picosecond laser) which operates at one trillionth of a second, and has a pulse width that is 100 times faster than that of the Q-Switch laser. The result is typically fewer sessions, greater client comfort, better results, and faster healing time. We understand that Q-Switch was once the gold-standard, but what’s the excuse for not making the switch (pun intended) once picosecond technology superseded it?
The NIXX System (recommended)
The NIXX laser tattoo removal system is the superior of laser tattoo removal options in Vancouver BC. In addition to our investment (for YOU) in the PicoSure system (view more here) we have brought in one of North America’s top laser tattoo removal technicians, Craig Gilbert, who leads the team at NIXX and has trained the other technicians in the art of using PicoSure technology. View more on our (YOUR) laser tattoo removal specialists right here.

Tattoo Lightening for Cover Up in Vancouver BC
You have a tattoo that you no longer want. It’s not the existence of the tattoo that has you bothered, but the design. There are a variety of reasons that people find an existing design undesirable, including the following:
The design was poorly drawn/created prior to being applied to tattoo transfer paper (and on to your skin)
The design was poorly applied by the tattooist
The design is no longer relevant (an ex boyfriend/girlfriend name, etc.)
The design brings up bad or sad memories
The design is no longer appropriate (P-Diddy tattoo, anyone?)
The design no longer suits your personality
The design no longer suits your lifestyle
The design’s aesthetic has been compromised due to body changes (i.e. stretched)
You just don’t like it anymore
Whatever the motivation may be, you want the design to be gone, but you still want a tattoo in the same place. That means you’ve got a cover-up on the mind, but you don’t want to be constrained to certain colors, tones, and borders, which is often the problem with traditional cover-up work. After doing some research you’ve discovered that tattoo lightening for cover up is an ideal option. It’s more cost and time efficient that an outright removal (a 100% clean slate) prior to reapplication, while being effective enough to give you the freedom to get a new design that you actually desire. All that’s left to figure out, is where to get it done. If you are located in Vancouver BC, or are able to visit often for tattoo lightening sessions, there is only one place in town to consider - NIXX Laser Tattoo Removal. Read ahead to find out why.

3 Reasons Why NIXX Laser Tattoo Removal is Vancouver BC’s Preferred Destination for Tattoo Lightening for Cover Up
——————————————
I. Most Advanced Laser Technology
NIXX only uses the best in tattoo lightening technology - PicoSure Laser by Cynosure. Feel free to perform an online search to verify that this is the best option for your needs. Or, click here to learn all about how PicoSure uses your body’s natural defenses to effectively breakdown ink particles and fade them away to free you up for your next work of body art.
II. North America’s Top Tattoo Lightening Specialists (Seriously)
State-of-the art technology is a somewhat meaningless advantage if applied by someone who does not have expertise in the delicate art of tattoo lightening. And yes, it is indeed an art. NIXX is proud to say that we have one of the most sought after laser tattoo removal and lightening experts in North America - Craig Gilbert. Clients come from all over Canada and even the Southern United States to see Craig. Furthermore, our resident expert has handpicked and trained his support staff to ensure that every client is in good hands when they come in for tattoo lightening cover up. View more on our laser technicians.
III. In-House Cover Up Service
Unlike with laser removal clinics in Vancouver that may also use PicoSure, NIXX shares its physical space with the top rated tattoo studio in the BC Lower Mainland. NIXX is located within Adrenaline VanCity on West 4th Avenue in the heart of Kitsilano. During your tattoo lightening sessions you can get to know the staff and begin planning the design for your cover-up, and return to the very same space when your skin has healed to get your exciting new piece.
