About the Clinic

Deleted Scene Tattoo Removal was founded in January 2020 by Hannah Stevens, a proud Hatboro resident eager to provide specialized removal services to her community. Hannah brings a unique background combining a Bachelor’s degree in Art Therapy & Behavioral Psychology, 10 years of experience as Director of a center for children and young adults with special needs, and years of involvement in the tattoo and body modification industry including three years with Cosmic Primate Tattoo family in Hatboro. This diverse experience positions Hannah to understand both the technical and deeply personal aspects of tattoo removal. After receiving extensive laser tattoo removal herself and recognizing the profound impact it made on her life, Hannah pursued expert training from New Look Laser College, the world’s leading laser tattoo removal training program, earning certifications as both a Certified Laser Specialist and Laser Safety Officer. The practice initially operated from Cosmic Primate Tattoo’s storefront using the Astanza Duality laser, then moved to its own dedicated space in 2022 and upgraded to the Astanza Trinity laser system for full-spectrum removal capabilities. Deleted Scene collaborates with tattoo studios across the region, helping their clients prepare canvases for cover-up work while maintaining relationships with reputable artists to connect clients seeking new ink after removal. Hannah operates as a proud sole, woman-owned business, driven to support herself and her family while giving back to her community through comprehensive tattoo removal services.

Laser Type Used

Astanza Trinity Laser System The Astanza Trinity combines two fully powered systems—a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and a Q-switched ruby laser—producing three wavelengths (1064 nm, 532 nm, and 694 nm) for completely removing all tattoo colors across all skin types. The 1064nm wavelength targets black, dark blue, and dark green inks while being safe for darker skin types; the 532nm wavelength effectively removes red, orange, and yellow pigments; and the distinctive 694nm ruby wavelength targets resistant pigments like vibrant blues and greens that traditional wavelengths cannot clear effectively. The Trinity’s Q-switched technology delivers ultra-short pulse duration with high peak power, creating photoacoustic rather than photothermal effects that shatter ink particles without excessive heat damage to surrounding tissue. The system features a homogenized square spot beam that ensures consistent energy delivery across the treatment area, enhancing both safety and efficacy. The Trinity is designed to target only unwanted ink particles, leaving surrounding skin tissue unharmed, and its comprehensive wavelength options enable treatment of professional multi-colored tattoos that previously required multiple different laser systems or proved resistant to complete removal.

Unique Features

Deleted Scene Tattoo Removal distinguishes itself through Hannah’s exceptional combination of art therapy training, behavioral psychology background, and insider tattoo industry experience—a skill set that addresses both the technical and emotional dimensions of tattoo removal in ways pure medical practitioners cannot. The practice’s Give Back Program demonstrates genuine community commitment by providing completely free removal of cancer radiation dot tattoos, human trafficking survivor branding, and gang-related or racist tattoos, alongside special discounts for veterans, healthcare workers, and other service groups. Deleted Scene’s 2022 upgrade from the Astanza Duality to the Trinity laser system represents significant investment in providing full-spectrum color removal capabilities, particularly important for the vibrant blue and green inks that resist treatment with standard dual-wavelength systems. The practice’s movement from a shared storefront to dedicated space reflects growth and success while maintaining convenient Hatboro accessibility near the turnpike and public transportation routes. Hannah’s woman-owned, sole proprietor business model creates direct accountability and consistent care—clients work with Hannah personally rather than rotating technicians, building genuine relationships and ensuring continuity throughout multi-session treatment journeys.
