Article 3. What we do and what the Site is for
Ray studios is a brand operated by the Ray Studios group, a network of studios specialising in laser tattoo removal.
Our treatments are carried out by trained skin therapists using laser devices, following the protocols set by the group. Every client has a consultation before any treatment begins, so that we can assess your tattoo, discuss what to expect and identify anything that would make treatment unsuitable.
The Site is primarily informative. It lets you read about the services we offer, book an appointment through our dedicated booking engine, and get in touch with our teams.
Article 4. Access to the Site
The Site is available free of charge to any User with an internet connection, at any time, except in cases of force majeure or events outside our control.
We may close the Site, or access to any of its services, temporarily or permanently and without notice or compensation, in order to carry out updates or to make changes to how the Site operates, to our servers or to availability. This list is not exhaustive.
All costs of accessing the Site (hardware, software, internet connection and so on) are yours alone.
