Dr. Tattoff® Brings Premier Laser Tattoo Removal Services to Atlanta, GA
Total Operating Count Rises to Nine Clinics
National Expansion Plans Continue

Beverly Hills, CA (Businesswire) October 30, 2013 - Dr. Tattoff, Inc. (“Dr. Tattoff” or “the Company”), the leading national pure-play tattoo removal business, announces the grand opening of its new Atlanta, Georgia clinic.

The Atlanta clinic expands the existing presence of Dr. Tattoff’s well-known clinics throughout the southern regions of the U.S.  Dr. Tattoff currently has clinics located in Southern California, Phoenix, Dallas and Houston.  Additional clinics in major U.S. cities are expected to open as Dr. Tattoff expands its national presence.

 “This past year has been an eventful time for Dr. Tattoff.  We are pleased that our corporate growth plan to expand nationally is well underway.  Emphasis remains in markets where there is existing demand for tattoo-removal services, high visibility, and opportunity to expand into other nearby neighboring cities,” stated Dr. Tattoff’s Chief Executive Officer, John Keefe.  “The tattoo removal market in the U.S. is currently estimated as a $10B+ market opportunity.  While Dr. Tattoff services a diverse range of patients, special focus is on creating market appeal to U.S. females (60% with tattoos) aged 18-40 years and earning over $50,000/year.  Tattoo removal is primarily fueled by the growing importance for individuals to improve their personal appearance.  The decision is typically driven by a desire to reverse a “permanent decision” made during one’s youth, find an affordable solution to look one’s best, and/or the need to increase job prospects by having a mainstream appearance.  Dr. Tattoff is well poised to serve the growing tattoo removal market.  The medically-focused service expertise, brand recognition, pure-play focus, and expansion into key demographic markets are Dr. Tattoff’s driving forces.”

 “All Dr. Tattoff’s clinics adhere to standard protocols and best practices,” stated Will Kirby, D.O., Chief Medical Officer.  “Upon the initial consultation, a patient’s tattoos are evaluated using our medically acclaimed Kirby-Desai tattoo removal scale, treated by trained licensed medical professionals, and monitored as treatment sessions progress.  Having these procedures in place ensures that our patients receive the highest levels of health, wellness and safety and ensures that our patients receive the same consistent high level of care in every one of our clinics, especially as Dr. Tattoff continues its national expansion plans.”  Dr. Kirby’s work has been cited in leading academic publications as well as popular press: New York Times, People Magazine, In Style.”

Dr. Tattoff’s Atlanta, GA clinic is located at 3637 Peachtree Road, Suite D-1, Atlanta, GA 30319.  The clinic is open during convenient hours 5 days a week and can be reached by calling 404-490-4300 or 888-TATT-OFF (888-828-8633).
