2008-10-10 23:27:00 - Vote recognizes New Look's popularity and service to Houston, Texas residents taking advantage of new technology to remove unwanted tattoos.

Houston tattoo removal clinic New Look Laser Tattoo Removal has won the Houston Press's annual "Best of Houston" award for "Best Laser Tattoo Removal" for 2008.

Announced in a recent issue of the Houston Press, the leading alternative weekly, New Look Laser Tattoo Removal was selected to be voter's choice as the leading provider of laser tattoo removal. New Look, which

exclusively provides tattoo removal services, was pleased with the news.

"We're thrilled the people of Houston and southeast Texas have selected us as the best place to remove an unwanted tattoo. We try our best to go the extra mile for our patients and they've certainly returned the favor by voicing their support in this way" says Ryan Lambert, New Look's President.

Laser tattoo removal is an outpatient medical procedure that is growing in popularity over the last several years. Technological advances have made the procedure less expensive, more effective, and faster than possible before.

Additionally, millions of Americans have been participating in a new national pastime of getting tattoos. Popular television shows including Miami Ink, L.A. Ink, and others have brought the tattoo culture into the living rooms and iPods of many people. Invariably, some people who respond to the craze and get a tattoo of their own will eventually regret the decision.

"Many of our patients find that their tattoo doesn't allow them to wear the sort of clothes they would enjoy. Long sleeves to cover a wrist tattoo are tough in a Houston summer. Many professional environments won't allow ankle tattoos to show, so that perfect skirt isn't an option for some women" says Lambert.

New Look Laser Tattoo Removal offers a free consultation for new patients. This visit is designed to allow the patient time to learn more about the removal process and understand the benefits, costs, and technology behind tattoo removal.
