A new center in Poulsbo will cater to patients with unwanted skin blemishes and regrettable tattoos.

InHealth Image, located at 20700 Bond Road NE, offers skin rejuvenation and tattoo removal using an Enlighten laser, according to a news release.

Enlighten harnesses a combination of laser pulses to break tattoo ink and pigment cells into tiny particles, which are then absorbed by the body. According to the release, InHealth Image is the only center in the West Sound region using the technology, which speeds up the removal process.

“Better technology translates to fewer treatments and lower total cost for patients,” InHealth Image owner Dr. Manfred Henne said in the release. “Plus our team is dedicated to providing our patients with friendly, personalized service in a medical environment.”

Henne co-founded InHealth Image with Viola Medina, a family practice nurse practitioner. The aesthetic medicine and tattoo removal center is a sister company to InHealth Imaging, which provides diagnostic and medical imaging.
