I have a very large black & grey tattoo on my shoulder that would be impossible to cover up. Does laser treatment work, are there different kinds of lasers. Is this is something that somebody has gone through and are happy with the results.

well to startoff is it something that you do not want to have on your skin anymore ... or is it like a guys name.. laser treatment is good and it does work but i would look into other possible treatments first.

do some more research about the laser treatment make sure its what you want or if you can just live with the tat... i had 2 friends that did the laser... 1 loved it and had excellent results after about 6 weeks or more and the other has like a scar almost there was something that she was "allergic" (thats what the doctor said) to and it screwed her arm up it should go away but it hurts more than the other friend.

laser removal, i've never actualy seen one in person only pictures on-line
other than laser surgery to remove it...
nothing is imposable to cover up...
this is my other half's personal site
http://soullessmonster.deviantart.com/
there are a few really bad things on there he's had to cover. as long as you don't mind going colour-full you can pretty much cover anything.
he covered a black rectangle that covered the top half of someones arm, with 3 masks...
he's also in the middle of doing this womans back, the thing she wants covered goes from her sholders to half way down her bum and from ribcage to ribcage. it's blues green oranges reds, it's this ogre, castle and water that looks like it was drawn by a 6 year old with bad eyes and no hands. he's covering it with a black/blue evil unicorn a flying horse a griphin and flowers (she's in to her mythical animals). it's going to take a long time but she's happy with how it's going.
we always get ideas from the customer and it has to be slightly larger than what's under it to hide the shape
but there are some very good tattoo artist out there and there will be one nearish to where ever you are who can do it you just have to find them, and make sure you see ones they've done before.

Hi - I saw on some programe about a year ago where a guy had laser treatment done on a fairly small tattoo and it completely removed the tattoo. Def worth looking into but it doesnt come cheap. Good luck! :O)

Laser treatment fades the tattoo over a couple of sessions, I believe.
Scar tissue can develop though.
Could end up looking worse.........

I heard that laser thing is effective but it might take more than one treatment and that it could possibly scar.

His next-door neighbor had a DeWalt belt sander, and then 6 NFL lineman were hired to hold 50 cent down so he couldn't struggle while he was getting sanded.

Write to the council in Edingburgh and say you are sick of these military displays

I've never had it done but although i think it works, i believe it can leave scarring.
