Great job! 7/3/2011

So I had to fix a mistake I made when I was 18. There is no reason for Yosemite Sam to be on my hip saying 'back off"" for about a 100 reasons.. So, I found this guy in the paper.. it seemed quick and big enough to get the job done since that is all they do. I made an appointment, went in, did the paperwork and next thing you know there was a guy blasting Sam off my hip. It took a few sessions but Sam is on his way off my hip.. not gone, but soon to be. From what I am told some tattoos are harder to remove, thus more painful.. but my experience was ok. I give these guys four stars, since they seem to do what they advertise... they are in it for the money, but you get what you pay for. more

the only place to go 10/21/2008

The tattoo on my upper arm needed to go. My best friend told me about Dr. Tattoff, and I made an appointment for a free consultation. I was extremely hesitant about going. but as soon as I walked in the door, i felt at ease. The staff was fantastic and all of my questions were answered. After my 2nd visit, I noticed a remarkable difference in my tattoo. Sure, there was some degree of pain and discomfort, but so is being inked. The results were worth the temporary discomfort, in my opinion. Thank you Dr. Tattoff for de-inking my arm. Pros: courteous,professional,reassuring more

You Will Be Glad You Came Here 10/20/2008

If you are considering tattoo removal, you need to go to someone you can have confidence in. This is your skin and your appearance so you want to go to the most qualified people you can find. I was so satisfied with the expertise of the Dr. Tattoff staff that I knew I did not need to look any further. I started the removal procedure during the summer and am pleased with the results thus far. It was explained to me that the removal time would varies from person to person and it depends on several different variables including that tattoo itself. I have been pleasantly surprised at how well it has gone and no longer feel I have to wear slacks at work every day because of what became an embarrassing tattoo on my ankle. If you are looking to have a tattoo removed, I would definitely recommend Dr. Tattoff. Pros: Friendly, Know what they are doing ,reasonable cost more

Great Care, Great Results 10/20/2008

No, tattoo removal is not fun or pain free, but they will do all they can here to make it as tolerable as possible. I cannot say enough good things about the treatment you will get at Dr. Tattoff. You have to be doing something right to attract the number of patients the Tattoff offices attract. Good news travels fast and the news is that Dr. Tattoff will give you great care and great results. Pros: great care and results more

I couldn't be more pleased 10/20/2008

I got a cute little heart tattoo on my chest when I turned 18. Twenty years later it was not so cute anymore, so I decided to finally get up the guts to have it removed.\r \r I can't tell you how pleased I was not only with the results, but also the great staff that treated me! They were always willing to answer any questions I had thoroughly, and never made me feel rushed when I had my appointments. \r \r If what you are looking for is expertise, courtesy, and professionalism go to Dr. Tattoff's!\r \r Thank you,\r Amanda\r \r Pros: caring and friendly staff, clean environment more

SCAM!!! 10/19/2008

This is the most ridiculous place of business I've ever encountered. They make you purchase the removal sessions in packages, or you can do one session at a time for double the price. They never have their lasers calibrated correctly, so your treatment will rarely be effective. BOTTOM LINE: LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE CONS!!! \r \r \r \r Pros: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Cons: Scam, Packages, Scam, Scam, Scam more

Great staff . .thanks! 10/11/2008

Your clinic does incredible work and the staff are so pleasant and proficient. I've recommended several people to your clinic and have raved to a dozen more about your superb work. I am scheduled for another session towards the end of November. I'm the girl with the small blue and green vines on my lower back. You could have simply taken my money, and started the laser tattoo removal treatment that day as suggested by another doctor, but you took the time to explain what would be the best course of action for me, and I appreciate it. You have a great reputation and I understand how you have earned it. I am looking forward to finishing the process and wearing a bikini again. Pros: Great staff that really care! more

that's what friends are for 10/11/2008

My friend and I found Dr. Tattoff while doing a search on the intenet. After we read the informative website and saw the really cool before and after pictures, I made an appointment and checked it out. I dragged my friend along with me because I was nervous and didn't want to go alone. They were really cool with us and explained how the laser tattoo removal process works, in a simple way that I could understand. I felt at ease right away. I'm about half way through the number of treatments that I need before it'll look like those after pictures I've seen. I can't wait! It's been a great experience already. My friend is also booking an appointment for some laser hair removal, since they do that there also. I'm thinking of trying it myself too. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. I knew I was in good hands the whole time. I'm very pleased with my results so far and encourage anyone wanting laser tattoo removal to book a free consultation here and at least check it out. They were advertising a special Ink Off to be held 1 day later this month too where you can even try the 1st treatment for free. You can probably find more information about it on the drtattoff website or by contacting their office, if that helps anyone who's considering it. Thanks for reading my review. (and thanks for going to Dr. Tattoff's with me Shelley, if you're reading this. You're a great friend!) Pros: great service. welcoming environment. skilled professionals. excellent results so far more

AWESOME LASER HAIR REMOVAL! 10/11/2008

I have researched about laser everywhere and I am a hairy person. I have wasted money on locations that I saw in newspaper advertisements. They don't even carry true lasers. That's what I got for being cheap. I went to a doctors office thinking that they carried a real laser that penetrated the skin into hair follicle. I spent insane money for each treatment, and the machine they carried was a true laser but it was old and very painful. I have lived in Encino for 5 years and I have never noticed Dr. Tattoff and one day by accident I did. I went in for the consultation with little hope that I would leave satisfied. I walked in and I was greeted by a woman with a very warm welcoming smile named Keeli and that made me feel comfortable right away. I filled out a form and then she gave me a consultation. She is very informative about laser and showed me exactly what it does. I have asked so many question and she has answered them all. It came to the pricing of my areas and I was thinking that for a location like this and for the top quality laser that I would be spending much more than I did at the doctors, and when she told me the price I wanted to do numerous areas because it was nearly 4 times cheaper. Then she explained what kind of packages they have there and I was even more surprised because that way I can get much more and save even more. At the doctors place I barely made it through the treatment and I cried, but there I was amazed how little it hurt, I barely felt it and two weeks later happen exactly what she told me, the hair fell out and it was smooth. I did some research on the machines they have there and it was exactly true what she has told me. It is an amazing laser and I am so looking forward of doing more areas. The girl who treats me is a great nurse and very funny I enjoy being there because I feel welcomed and satisfied. Pros: Honesty! more

Thanks so much! 10/2/2008

I want to thank Dr. Kirby and the staff at Dr. Tattoff for everything they have done for me. I decided on laser tattoo removal after researching it and the alternatives for several months. I was in search of a doctor who would carefully review my choices and achievable results. I?m a ""cross my T?s ""and ""dot my I?s"" kind of gal. Dr. Will Kirby, medical director at Dr. Tattoff, is a well known expert in his field and came highly recommended by a colleague of mine. I have had my first 3 treatments and I feel gratified knowing that I made the right decision. My tattoo has faded significantly and with a few more treatments, will be non-existent. Not only do you provide exceptional service, but you offer great prices . . Thank you for helping me feel attractive again!? Pros: Professional! more

All gone! 10/2/2008

After having an initial consult with Dr. Tattoff?s medical director, Dr. Will Kirby, I finally took the next step in the process. The unsightly tattoo I got when I was 20 was removed in six sessions to make way for some ink by a reputable artist. I wanted to let you know that I really appreciated you explaining everything to me. I was really nervous and I didn't think I would do the treatment. You made me feel very comfortable and my treatment was so much easier than I thought it would be. Thanks! I will recommend you to others for their laser tattoo removal needs as well. Pros: Clean well lit offices, friendly staff, professional! more

Thanks to everyone at Dr. Tattoff! 9/4/2008

Ten years ago in my early 20?s, I made the choice to get my boyfriend?s name tattooed on my upper arm. A year later the boyfriend was long gone and the tattoo has been a painful reminder of the mistake I made. After doing my research, I made the decision to have it removed and selected Dr. Tattoff in Encino to do the procedure. I was able to determine that with their skill, training and experience they were the right choice. A friend provided me with the website information (google drtattoff) and in my initial consultation Dr. Will Kirby, the medical director, answered all of my questions directly and informatively thereby easing any qualms I may have had. I have had two treatments and the tattoo has faded substantially. Everyone in the clinic is very helpful and is accessible to respond to questions at any time. Thanks so much and I will see you soon for the remainder of my treatments! Pros: Professional clinic, good parking, great staff more

Brand new skin 8/16/2008

My friend went to a medispa to get her tattoo removed a couple years back. First of all, they told her it would be gone in 4 or 5 treatments. At the end of her SEVENTEENTH treatment it was about halfway gone and she now has a permanent scar. Not cool at all. So when I decided to have my tattoo removed I did my research. After going to a few different places that specialize in laser tattoo removal, I finally chose Dr. Tattoff in Encino for one main reason: they know what they are doing, period. You can just tell when you walk in that they are all about tattoo removal and hair removal and that's it. I'm four treatments in and my tattoo is about 3/4 faded. It was a small black tattoo on my shoulder. They told me it would take probably 6 or 7 sessions during my consultation. So not only are they accurate when they tell you how long it's going to take, but I don't have a scar at all, and it costs the same or less than the other places I went to, so why would I go anywhere else? Also, the staff is really, really nice. Pros: Accurate estimates, they specialize in tattoo and hair removal Cons: nothing more

Dr. Tattoff - Self Confidence Renewed 8/12/2008

For me getting a tattoo at the age of 16 was almost a requirement with the crowd I was hanging with. It was not done on a whim, but it is something that I, at the age of 26, regretted immensely. I have come a long way from that young misguided girl and have a job at as a buyer for a top retail company. The black skull tattoo on the inside of my wrist had to go! A friend of mine suggested using Dr. Tattoff since their medical director, Dr. Kirby, is known as a leading expert in tattoo removal. I booked a consultation and consequently did the series of laser treatments to the ultimate removal of the tattoo. He alleviated any doubts or fears that I had and provided before and after pictures of similar inking so I would know what to expect. The staff were extremely professional and I always felt that I was in the most capable of hands. Am I pleased with the final results? I am ecstatic! I have so much more confidence than I had before thanks to Dr. Tattoff . . .I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional laser tattoo removal. Pros: Very professional , answered all my questions, and provided detailed communication during the procedures - great staff! more

Girlfriend's treatment: 8/12/2008

I'm a doctor (Ph.D.) currently living part time in Atlanta and part time in LA . My girlfriend lives in LA full time and while visiting her recently I went with her to watch her get her tattoo removed. It's her ex-boyfriend's initials. I told her it doesn't bother me but I guess that deep down inside it really does. She chose Dr. Tattoo after reading the great reviews, looking at their website, and seeing one of there doctors on a TV show. I give credit where credit is due and this place is the real deal. Being completely objective, I can honestly say that the treatment was really impressive. Yes, it was a little painful but overall it was an excellent experience. Pros: Very useful website and educational materials more

Super easy 8/12/2008

I heard that tattoo removal takes a long time and hurts a lot. Well I've had three treatments at Dr. Tattoff in Encino and neither of those are true. Maybe it takes a long time and hurts at other places, but that's why I chose to go to Dr. Tattoff - because they focus on tattoo removal, not on waxing and facials and other stuff like that, which are important and all, but when I get a tattoo removed, I want it done by people who have actually been trained to do it, not the same lady who does my pedicure. Anyway, my tattoo is more than halfway gone, so I've probably got two treatments left. It feels like a rubberband snapping against your skin. Does that feel good? No, but does it hurt? Not nearly as much as waxing or any other beauty treatment that's actually worthwhile. If you really want a tattoo removed, go to a place like this where they specialize in tattoo removal and where they use the right lasers for it. Pros: Good prices, fast treatments, they use the proper equipment and the staff is well-trained Cons: n/a more

Best Service EVER! 8/12/2008

Here's how good Dr. Tattoff Laser Tattoo Removal is - I went in for a consultation about a month ago and they told me how much it would cost to get my tattoo removed. It was way less than two other places I went to to get prices from, but I didn't have the cash to get started just then. I told the manager that I would come back in September for my first treatment, and she suggested that if I wanted to start earlier I should drive down to their Orange County location on July 30 because they were removing tattoos for free that whole day for an event called Operation Ink Off. So of course I did that since it was FREE. The nurse there said it will take another 5 or 6 sessions to remove my tattoo but it literally looks 1/2 way gone already. I already have my next appointment at the Dr. Tattoff Encino location booked for September. That's a cool manager to help me out like that. I would do the Operation Ink Off thing for all of my treatments but they only do it once a year, so I'm happy that they helped me out and it's not that much to just pay the rest of the way. I think my tattoo is going to be gone by the end of the year. If you're thinking about laser tattoo removal, this is definitely the place to go. Pros: Cool Staff, in and out very quickly, parking is in the building and they validate more

Think twice if you're considering this place 7/1/2008

My heavens, I went to Dr. Tattoff after hearing that Dr. Will Kirby was the doctor here. He spoke so highly of his skills and the place that I thought I'd give them a try to have a tatto on my upper arm removed. I was told that it would take between 5 and 12 treatments and that it would be virtually painless. Well, firstly, it wasn't painless at all. It hurt like hell! They should be honest about that. Secondly, after three treatments, it still looked like it had never been lasered. Dr. Kirby said that my tattoo was 'dificult' and would require probably at least 20 treatments to remove. The tattoo itself was only about 10 inches big! After the fourth treatment and no obvious improvement, I chose not to return to Dr. Tattoff. Instead, I chose to go to anothr tattoo removal center and it took them 6 laser treatments to remove that tattoo!! I was shocked that they so easily got rid of the tattoo when Dr. Kirby was telling me that it was 'difficult'. When I told the people at the center what Dr. Kirby had said, they said they weren't surprised and said that he seems to promise more than he can deliver most times. Well, I learned a lesson and hope people listen to me. Don't go to Dr. Tattoff!!!!!!! It will be a waste of your hard earned money. more
