Tattoos are removed by laser in Bangkok at hospitals and clinics, over a series of sessions weeks apart, as the ink fades a little each time.
Providers in Bangkok price each session by the size of the tattoo, by the square centimetre or inch, or by body area, and sell courses. Ask for the total for the number of sessions you will need.

Pricing is indicative and never a quote.
Laser tattoo removal fires short pulses of light at the ink in the skin. The ink breaks into fine particles, which the body then clears, so the tattoo fades over a series of sessions.
Bangkok providers use picosecond lasers such as PicoWay, and one hospital also uses older Q-switched lasers at lower prices. Different wavelengths target different colours: one clinic uses 1064 nm for black and blue ink and 532 nm for red.
The same procedure name covers different operations. These are the approaches a clinic will offer, and what separates them.
Pulses lasting trillionths of a second. The hospital prices PicoWay higher than its Q-switched lasers.
Nd:YAG or ruby lasers with longer pulses. One hospital prices them at a little over half its PicoWay price for the same size.
Cosmetic tattoos are priced separately. One clinic warns that laser near the eyes can harm the retina.
These come up at consultation. Knowing them beforehand makes the conversation shorter and the plan clearer.
Price follows the size of the tattoo. One clinic says black is easiest to remove and red the hardest.
Clinics advise at least three, and one says eight to ten on average, four to eight weeks apart. Ask for a course price.
One clinic advises against it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with a tendency to keloid scars, on blood-thinning medicine, or with an open wound or infection in the area.
About 1 day
Clinics vary, and your clinician’s plan overrides anything on this page. The shape is consistent.
Sessions are four weeks to two months apart, so a full course takes several trips. One clinic says a new tattoo must be at least four weeks old.
Clinics advise no alcohol, aspirin or other blood-thinning medicine, fish oil or vitamin E; one says for at least a week.
Numbing cream first, then the laser. One clinic covers the area with a plaster afterwards.
Keep it dry for 24 hours to two days. One clinic says redness and small scabs settle in about five to seven days.
One clinic says the skin is back to normal in one to two weeks. Do not pick the scabs or pop blisters.
Avoid strong sun and use sunscreen on the area.
A clinic name is not a clinician. Ask for the individual, their registration, and how often they do this procedure.
Facility fees, anaesthesia, materials, medication, follow-up appointments and take-home items are often quoted separately.
Including if the clinic reschedules, or if the in-person assessment changes the plan.
Ask for the policy in writing: who pays, within what window, and whether it covers a return trip.
A name, a channel, and an expected response time. Aftercare that ends at the airport is not aftercare.
Clinics that perform this in your city see your enquiry, without your details. Up to three take it and come back to you with real quotes. You decide who — if anyone — you talk to.
Everything worth settling before you book, before you fly, while you are in Bangkok, and once you are home — including how this goes wrong and how to avoid it. Tick it here, or take it with you.
All of this is settled on paper, before money moves.
Avoidable problems, mostly caused by booking in the wrong order.
