Tattoo Removal Cost Calculator

Enter the rate your clinic charges, either a flat price per session or a price per square inch with a shop minimum, and the session range they quoted you. The result gives the total at both ends of that range, the cost per visit once numbing and travel are added, the cost per square inch for comparing clinics, how many months the course runs at your spacing, and how it compares with what the tattoo cost to get. A second tab works out whether a package beats paying per session and at how many sessions it breaks even. The number of sessions comes from a consultation, not from this page, and it is the largest figure in the total.

Calculator Type
Area In
Governs the tattoo area, the per-area rate below if the clinic charges that way, and the cost per unit of area in the answer. A flat session price is money and is not affected.

Enter the rate the clinic quoted and the session range they gave you. Everything that attaches to a visit rather than to the course goes in the per-visit boxes.

A flat price per session, or a price per square inch or square centimetre per session if you picked that above, in whichever unit you chose. Ask the clinic; this page has no price data of its own.
Width times height of the area being treated, in square inches. Only used when the rate is per unit of area, but it is reported either way so you can compare clinics that quote each way. Left blank it is 4 square inches.
Almost every clinic has one. A very small tattoo is charged at the minimum however quick the pass is.
Six to eight weeks is the usual interval, and longer on darker skin or where the last session was hard on the area. The gap is what lets the body clear the broken-up ink.
Charged once. Many clinics waive it if you go ahead.
Numbing cream, dressings, aftercare, and any per-session tax.
Optional, and worth filling in. Removal almost always costs several times what the tattoo did.
How your skin responds to sun. It changes the laser settings a clinic can safely use, and with them the number of sessions and the spacing.

Most clinics offer a block of sessions at a discount. Whether that is a saving depends entirely on how many sessions you actually end up needing.
