Reymar Clinic

R.I.P Doctor Henry ..Very nice man and family .

Well today was my first tattoo removal! First of all let me tell you, if you go to this place please take someone with you! YOU WILL BE IN THE GHETTO!!! especially if you take public transportation there. Do not take a purse or any valuable things, go decent and do not attract attention. Anyways so I arrive there at 11:45, my appointment was scheduled at 12. The lady upfront was very courteous and I only waited 15 minutes before I was called. I was very nervous. I waited in the consultation room for about 3 minutes then an asian guy came in and gave me prices, he politely explained the procedure. The girl from the front desk brought me some papers to sign and took my money after that the asian guy came and got me I was taken to the laser room next door. I was terribly shaking LOL next thing I was HORRIBLY in excruciating, agonizing pain!!! He was working on two of my tattoos and one of them was pretty big I tell you. He kindly stopped a few times after seeing my fist so tight and moving my feet, He was nice enough to make a conversation so I would forget about the pain. It just worked very little. He did it twice. It took about 10 minutes and then everything was over. He said 98% of people DON’T scar. I was told to come back after 4 – 6 weeks. I will keep you guys posted with the results! Oh and next time I will take a vicodin before I step in there!!!

Can you give negative stars based on location? I wouldn’t live in Englewood or send my worst enemy out there after dark if you paid me. IF you’re coming, make sure you arrive early, with a friend, and remain cautious of surroundings. This is the ghetto… dress down, wear comfortable clothing, and don’t attract attention! There is a fenced in parking lot that you can park in out back. You can’t miss it because its taller than the building and topped with plenty of barbed wire.
I reluctantly made an appointment (which isn’t very necessary) for 12PM and was very nervous. I popped a Vicodin and braced myself for what many call the most excruciating pain they’ve endured. Upon walking in I was greeted with a most unpleasant smell, possibly the clients there or the must in the building. I had an issue finding the room, but as soon as I told them that I was there for tattoo removal I was rushed to the back. A small asian man took a look at my two small tattoos on my hip and ankle and quoted me $ 100. I paid cash and was seen within five minutes. The other room was very cluttered with all sorts of things. I was shown pictures of before and after with various tattoos. Most of these weren’t accurate to my skin pigmentation and looked like «prison» tattoos. I had nothing to lose at this point and laid on the table. The pain was worse than I thought it would be. They don’t offer pain numbing creams here either. It was tolerable though. I would compare the pain to hot oil splatters when you are cooking with some razor cuts, skinned knees, and paper cuts in the fleshy areas. I couldn’t look. I was panting, squealing, and breathing obscenities under my breath. Squeezing my boyfriends hands (and my eyes as tight as I could) I got through him going over them three times and using a special laser that is less painful for color. It was over in 10 minutes. I asked him to stop ONCE because the pain on my hip was searing. He stopped immediately and was very responsive to my concerns.
Don’t become discouraged, for all this bad there is good! I give Reymar four stars because the price and results. The doctor that saw me (Henry, I believe) was friendly, comfortable, and quick! Its a complete hidden gem and I have read accounts of Ritacca and other places turning laser power down and overcharging. I can see my results and the pain went away (after my shock did) and it healed the way a tattoo would.
(EDIT: Five weeks later & my tattoo faded significantly, pain ceased after 24 hours and it was sensitive for two days! I’m unbelievably happy!)
Message me if you have any questions about this procedure. I hope I helped :)

OK, went there today to get a tattoo lasered off and this place is a dump (felt kinda like I was in a third world country). It was a very informal and laid back atmosphere for a doctors office, but hey for only a $ 100(cash only) they use a high quality laser on you. I brought a friend and the doc allowed him in to record the lasering on my iphone (we had a good laugh when we left). Also don’t expect any luxuries like something to numb the pain. However, the doc is super cool and extremely nice and made a painful procedure bearable with his chatter. Can’t wait to go back next month and move this along. Did I say it was only a hundred bucks!

So… I’m actually here at Reymar now. This is my second visit for tattoo removal. I came around this time last year and saw a big improvement after only one treatment, but the tat wasn’t completely gone. I’m hoping this will be my final laser treatment cause it hurts like hell! Pain being the primary reason it has taken me so long to come back. My tat is on my neck and it’s professional ink btw. Anyhow, Reymar is dark, dank and rather gross. Don’t come for the ambience. Come for the savings! My treatment is… wait for it… a whopping $ 100! The front desk staff are a bit rude at first but if you maintain your cool and notify them that you’re there for laser treatment they will be a bit nicer. Last time I was here the office was very busy, but today it’s like a ghost town. Either way you’re likely to be seen fairly quickly since you’re a paying patient.
This place is in Englewood, so if you’re white, early arrival is recommended. Actually if you’re black and not from or look as though you’re from this ‘hood, early arrival is recommended. The area is very shady and you will pass by a few crackheads, thugs, hoodrats, etc. on your way in. The aforementioned types, typically do not rise early in the morning so to avoid them, make it an early start. You do not need to make an appointment at Reymar, just show up and have your money ready to pay in advance. Be sure to get your receipt. The doctor is a really nice, middle aged Asian guy. Pretty sure he’s going to crack a joke or two today (hear him doing so with the staff as I Unilocal).
In summary, if you’re looking to have your tatoo removed for an unbeatable price, with effective equipment and don’t mind going on an urban safari while you’re at it, just have yourself lasered at Reymar Clinic.
