Affordable. Effective. Safe.
Laser technology is most commonly used in tattoo removal. Using a laser helps ensure:
- Safe lightening of tattoos with a low risk of side effects, such as burning or scarring of skin
- Efficient removal or lightening of tattoo ink with the fewest amount of treatments
- Removal of all tattoo inks—from dark tones to bright colors
- Treatments that fit every individual’s unique skin type
Laser tattoo removal generally does not require anesthesia. Our team uses laser technology to lighten tattoo ink with minimal pain or discomfort, and with results that exceed alternative or do-it-yourself tattoo-removal methods.
Lasers have improved our ability to treat skin conditions and improve the appearance of the skin. We offer the latest technology in laser treatments, including skin resurfacing, skin tightening, tattoo removal, hair removal, and reduction of excessive sweating.
All laser treatments are performed by a highly qualified staff member. Unlike many other “laser centers” that do not have an onsite supervising physician, at Coachlight your comfort and safety are of the utmost importance.
Please call our office at 515.221.4905 for a complimentary tattoo consultation. Our providers will discuss the process with you and answer any of your questions. We will also provide you with a quote for the cost of your laser tattoo removal treatments!

Laser Tattoo Removal Using the Q-Plus C Quanta®
Coachlight is one of the only practices in Iowa to offer laser tattoo removal, and we have one of the busiest laser tattoo clinics in the Midwest. In a recent study, it is estimated that 15% of adults have tattoos. It is estimated that 50% of those receiving tattoos will want to have them removed within 10 years of application. Coachlight offers tattoo removal with the Q-Plus C Quanta Laser®.
Q-Plus C Quanta Laser is considered the Gold Standard in laser tattoo removal. It is the highest-performance Q-switched laser on the market and it is the only one of its kind in Des Moines. It is the ONLY true three-wavelength Q-switched system.
This laser delivers light of specific wavelengths in ultra-short, very high peak energy pulses which are absorbed by the pigment in the tattoo and result in an acoustic shockwave. The shockwave shatters the pigment particles causing them to break into fragments small enough for removal by the body. These tiny particles are then eliminated by the body.
Mixed wavelengths allow for the treatment of multiple ink colors. These three wavelengths (Nd: YAG 1064nm for dark blue and black ink, 532nm for red, orange, yellow, and purple ink, & Ruby 694nm for blue, sky blue, black, green, and violet ink) achieve the highest possible power, producing remarkable results.
The addition of the 694nm ruby laser to the Q-Plus C platform allows us to treat the blues and greens which are resistant to other Nd: YAG lasers.
