The U.S. tattoo removal market was valued at $65.9 million in 2023, and is projected to reach $403.8 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 19.9% from 2024 to 2033.
Tattoo removal is the process of eliminating unwanted tattoos from the skin. It involves various techniques, such as laser treatment, surgical excision, or dermabrasion, to break down tattoo pigments and restore the skin's natural appearance. Among these, laser removal is the most widely used and effective method due to its precision and minimal damage to surrounding tissues.
The growing number of people with tattoos has naturally led to a parallel rise in individuals seeking removal due to personal or professional reasons, which significantly fosters the growth of the U.S. tattoo removal market. According to a 2023 national survey conducted by Advanced Dermatology in Illinois, 15% of individuals regretted their tattoos within six months to a year, and this number increased to 51% after two years. In addition, increase in the prevalence of tattoo regret acts as the key driving force of the market. As per a 2021 survey by Statista, approximately 12% of Americans regretted getting at least one of their tattoos. Moreover, the expansion of dermatology clinics and cosmetic centers in the U.S.
has improved access to tattoo removal services, which augments the market growth. The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery reported performing over 160,000 tattoo removal procedures in 2019, indicating a growing demand for these services. Furthermore, the preference for minimally invasive and non-invasive aesthetic treatments aligns with the popularity of laser tattoo removal over surgical options, thereby fostering the market growth. However, high expense of tattoo removal services, especially advanced laser techniques, limits their accessibility to a broader population.
Side effects such as scarring, skin discoloration, or irritation, discourage some individuals from opting for the treatment, which further hampers the market growth. On the contrary, the introduction of picosecond lasers and other advanced technologies has improved the effectiveness, safety, and comfort of tattoo removal, attracting more clients. Such developments are expected to open new avenues for the expansion of the market growth during the forecast period.
The U.S. tattoo removal market is segmented into procedure and end user. On the basis of procedure, the market is fragmented into laser procedure, surgical procedure, creams, and others. As per end user, it is segregated into hospitals, dermatology clinics, and others.
By end user, the market dermatology clinics segment was the major revenue generator in 2023, and is expected to maintain its lead from 2024 to 2033.
