Ink Doctors once again visited Ironwood State Prison to provide laser tattoo removal services to incarcerated individuals. This was their third visit to the institution.
The tattoos targeted for removal, selected by the incarcerated population, usually represent gang activity or their lives as career criminals. Some were tattooed prior to incarceration and some during incarceration.
Those who participate in tattoo removal increase their odds of obtaining employment and improving the overall quality of their lives and the lives of their loved ones.
The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will continue to offer this opportunity to the incarcerated community to improve reentry into our communities.
