New York State Law & Tattoo Removal
New York State has ruled that Laser
Tattoo Removal is a medical procedure. Laser Tattoo Removal may be

1. Medical Doctor (M.D. or D.O.)
2. Nurse Practitioner (R.N.P.) in a collaborative relationship with a
Medical Doctor
3. Physician Assistant (P.A.) under the supervision of a Medical Doctor
New York State does not recognize the right of any other personnel to
perform this medical procedure even if they have “medical supervision”
and despite any additional “training” or “certification”.
Examples of unapproved personnel include:
Cosmetologists
Electrologists
Skin “Specialists”
Beauticians
“Certified” Laser Technicians
Medical Assistants
Tattoo Artists
