I have seen and heard so many stupid people say if they regret their tattoo they will just get it removed. They have no idea how expensive that is or how painful or how many treatments it may take

[@GMMedic]

I guess that tattoo wasn't such a great idea after all, was it? Pretty damned expensive mistake.

[@NineNineOne]

Incorrect. That will be gone in one or two sessions. Mine were ALL gone in one session for $200. Very fast, cheap and effective AND I used a doctor to do it who injected topical anaesthetic so it was totally painless.

[@miguelporto2984]

​@@kristinehansen. In the 80's, my uncle was a police officer in Brazil, and they can't have tattoos. And, well... It was the 80's, he had to burn the tattoo with acid. Laser is the easy way

@@NineNineOne maybe you got lucky. I Know people who had to get 7 sessions. And it was very expensive where I live and painful as hell. Probably depends on where you live how expensive. Some inks are easier to remove than others

[@TheRealestHi]

The best thing to do is never get the tattoo in a first place.

[@steventyler9435]

I used salt 🧂 rubs or salinization. You basically sandpaper off the epidermis with salty water and 4x4 gauze. The salt will draw all the ink up into a nasty looking scab. Then the scab heals and big chunks fall off. You are lady with perfect skin. The trick is knowing when to stop and not to leave scars. I removed several tattoos that way in one treatment.

[@LawOfAttraction-ed2mx]

About 15-20 to remove tattoo. What you see is burnt skin, lots of tattoo left under once this healed. To claim couple of session is false

[@leoz7193]

I had this done, and it took many painful sessions. There is still a shadow of the tattoo. Did I mention how painful it is? It felt like a hot iron was placed on my skin. The best thing to do is never get a tattoo.

[@D71102]

Yep. A couple or even 5 sessions would only be the case if the tattoo was not black and was already VERY faded. I had a black ink scrolled name and I have gone through 15 sessions so far and you can still read it. It is close to gone, but it is still there. Also realize that there is at least 4-6 weeks worth of wait… they want your lymphatic system to absorb as much of the ink as possible before another session.

[@marmite.]

​@@leoz7193I had 22 removed with 6 weeks healing in-between everything treatment I think it depends on the Lazer and the person doing it as I haven't got one mark or shadows and my arms are covered in freckles.. Oh by God it kills...

[@tarrantwolf]

You're not seeing burned skin, you're seeing swollen skin from the ink inside being blasted apart. Like tiny popcorn's popping inside you. That's why there's such a straight edge where the ink stops.

Bro W tattoo

[@66satanic_panic66]

For anyone wondering why they’re getting it removed, it really isn’t the best tattoo. Yes, the design itself is nice BUT the black is a bit splotchy, the circle is not at all straight, and the line work just looks overall super messy. Feel free to correct me though, I’m only 16 and just commenting my observation!

[@HolleyH]

circle could be straightened out by thickening the line and splotches can be easily fixed by touch ups and getting it refilled in. this a simple tattoo to fix. more than likely they just dont like that tattoo anymore and want it gone. something common ive seen is removing most of a tattoo to make it easier to cover up esp if its a bigger flash tattoo prob like that and its in a good spot that they realize theyve wasted. not saying you have any wrong ideas! just want to give more info as someone who’s been around the block when it comes to getting tattoos and loves to learn about them!

[@donaldclinton1975]

They may be getting it removed because they realized how stupid it looks. Many people mature out of their youthful indiscretions and wish they never got a tat. Ask me how I know

Fun/not so fun fact, red, green and blue pigments are the hardest for them to remove. Until I learned this I thought saturated black would be the toughest. So just something to keep in mind if you’re getting a colored tattoo (mainly mentioned cuz red tattoos seem to be really popular nowadays) those colors are difficult and sometimes even impossible to remove completely. So really put some thought in on what you want done and research who you want it done by if you’re getting a colored tattoo. I mean that’s a good rule of thumb for any tattoo 😂 but just a heads up!
