Duncan is such a great guy and he has made the whole process so easy by being really informative before, during and after each session and just wanting the best results for his clients. His prices are reasonable and his results are amazing. Ive only just started the removal process but Im excited to see the end result. I highly recommend Counterpunch for your tattoo removal!

I dropped in for a quote on 4 very small tattoos I have in different places, the price for getting them all done at once beat anywhere else I had contacted and ended up having my first session that day! Duncan was quick, friendly, informative. After 3 months I am super happy and optimistic about the results of the first session and will definitely be returning
