Laser tattoo removal service provider, Removery is celebrating a global expansion, with 150 studios scheduled to open by January 2023. The new additions are intended to fulfill the rapidly growing global demand for tattoo removal, according to a press release.
"We are thrilled that Disappearing inc. and Dr. Ink Eraser have chosen to join Removery," said Mark Evans, chairman of Removery. "These businesses were the leading providers in their markets and now we can bring expert training guided by our Clinical Advisory Board and the excellence of PicoWay laser technology to these communities."
News of the expansion came after Removery’s decision to acquire tattoo removal studios, Disappearing inc. and Dr. Ink Eraser.
The company hopes to operate 30 more studios by the end of this year, and 50 additional studios by the end of 2023.
"By introducing our advanced technology and clinical support network to some of the most experienced laser specialists in the country, together, we will continue to deliver great client experiences and positive outcomes for anyone looking for tattoo removal," said Tom Weber, CEO of Removery.
Removery uses PicoWay® laser technology, credited with minimizing the number of required treatment sessions and potential side effects. The laser is also compatible with any ink color and skin type.
The expansion also follows a $30 million investment made by Elliott Investment Management and HEAL Partners on Removery, allowing “Removery's INK-nitiative program to connect with new community nonprofits to provide tattoo removal for those in need.”
Removery will also offer support through its INK-nitiative program, which offers tattoo removal services to formerly incarcerated, gang members, survivors of human trafficking and those who wish to remove hate symbols or racist tattoos.
"We encourage community members to apply for our INK-nitiative program," Weber said. "Old tattoos can be a painful reminder of a life left behind. We want to empower people who've had the courage to change and help them feel confident in their new path."
