With 20+ years of laser expertise and an advanced Q-switched laser that fades even stubborn colors, Lazaderm is Sioux Falls’ trusted choice for clean, low-scarring tattoo removal.
Physician-Led Care
Tattoo removal at our Sioux Falls clinic is led by Dr. Lornell Hansen II, MD, whose 20+ years behind a laser is exactly why patients describe the process as far more comfortable than they expected.
A Team You Can Trust
Our Quanta Q-Plus laser in Sioux Falls uses ultra-short pulses across multiple wavelengths, so it can break down tough colors like blue, green, and turquoise while keeping heat to a minimum.
Free Consultations
Every tattoo is different. Start with a no-cost conversation at our clinic on S Kelley Ave, where we’ll map out a realistic plan and pricing before you book a thing.
No two tattoos fade the same way, and we tailor every plan to your ink. A few of the most common requests at our Sioux Falls clinic:
Fade an unwanted tattoo until it’s no longer visible.
Erase just a name, a word, a wrong date, or one part of a larger piece.
Lighten an old tattoo to give your artist a cleaner canvas to work on.
Remove blues, greens, and turquoise colorations that older lasers struggle to touch.
Both respond to treatment, though timelines vary.
Clear out ink that’s lost its meaning or simply worn out its welcome.
From wrists and ankles to backs and sleeves.

We’ll take a close look at your tattoo, including its colors, age, depth, and location, and give you an honest estimate of how many sessions it’ll take, along with pricing.

The laser feels like a rubber band snapping against the skin, and we use cold air and ice packs to keep you as comfortable as possible. Small black tattoos can take under a minute; larger pieces take longer, and we cap each visit around 30 minutes so your body isn’t overwhelmed.

Your immune system does the real work, gradually clearing the ink fragments the laser leaves behind. That’s why we space sessions roughly 6 to 8 weeks apart. Your skin gets time to recover, and your tattoo fades a little more with each round.
Cost depends on the size, colors, and complexity of your tattoo, plus how many sessions it’ll take. At your free Sioux Falls consultation, your provider builds a treatment plan with clear, upfront pricing so you know what to expect before you commit.
Most tattoos take somewhere between 5 and 15 sessions, sometimes more, depending on the ink and where it sits on your body. At Sioux Falls, we space visits about six to eight weeks apart to give your skin time to heal and your body time to clear the ink between rounds.
Our Quanta Q-Plus laser at S. Kelley Ave uses multiple wavelengths, so it can target the colors older lasers had trouble with, including light blues, greens, and turquoise. Black ink still tends to fade the fastest, but no color is off the table.
Tattoo removal at our Sioux Falls location is handled by Dr. Lornell Hansen II, MD, Valerie Belding, PA-C, and Laura Bleeker, NP-C, all known for a careful, low-scarring approach and for keeping patients comfortable. You can learn more about each of them on their bio pages.
This is one of our most common requests in Sioux Falls. We can lighten an existing tattoo to give your tattoo artist a cleaner canvas, and we’re happy to coordinate with whoever’s designing your cover-up so they have the freedom they need.
