Since 2014, we've proudly participated in the Fresh Start Tattoo Removal Program, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit initiative. This community program focuses on removing visible gang, prison, and forced tattoos, offering life-changing benefits for individuals and their families. The aim is to eliminate barriers to employment and alleviate the psychological impact of involuntary tattoos.

Our commitment began five years ago when Dr, Dave Ores initiated free tattoo removal for those in need, embodying the program's core concept: "If you're helping yourself, we're here to assist." As one of four Texas locations involved, Pigment Tattoo and Laser  Removal wholeheartedly supports Dr. Dave and the Fresh Start Tattoo Removal Program. If you require these services or wish to check eligibility, visit Fresh Start Tattoo Removal Program to complete the application. Upon referral, we're ready and eager to help! Committed to equal opportunities, we provide reduced-cost laser tattoo removal in the Austin area for program participants. Keep in mind, applications must be submitted to Dr. Dave and the Fresh Start Tattoo Removal Program first. Additionally, under Dr. Dave's recommendation, we extend our services to non-visible tattoos at a reduced cost.

The Fresh Start Tattoo Removal Program, Inc., has 501(c) 3 status with the IRS, and will also accept charitable donations.
