Like octopi, tattoos contain ink, are typically found among sailors, and can frighten young children in swimming pools. Protect tots from scary tats with today's Groupon: for $49, you get a treatment of up to 9 square inches of tattoo removal at Precision Laser Tattoo Removal in Toronto (up to a $228 value).

Specializing in laser tattoo removal, the certified laser techs at Precision Laser Tattoo Removal harness their expertise to annul tattoos that have overstayed their welcome. Tracing the skin-branding with the Medilite C6 laser, the skilled eraser disassembles the ink via a powerful beam of light and promises to return it to the octopus from which it came. Once the ink is broken up, the body automatically begins expunging the foreign substance over the following weeks. Though it's a noninvasive procedure, clients may experience mild discomfort during the treatment. To ease any discomfort, the techs provide ameliorants such as anesthetic creams, ice packs, and lullabies sung in Esperanto. Most patrons sporting skin-symbols are eligible for tattoo removal; however, an initial free consultation and pretreatment health assessment ensures the appropriateness of the treatment for each individual. Clients may also opt to simply fade the tattoo in preparation for covering it with a new one rather than completely remove it. While many will see results after the first session, clients will require multiple visits to completely eradicate their body art.
