Answer 1

I am currently having a tattoo lasered off of my back. I have to use numbing cream and take pain pills, cause I am a huge baby. It's painful, but not unbearable, and definately worth it. It's working really well, but they way underestimated it. I was told it would probably take 8-10 treatments, and I'm on #14 and it's not gone. So far I have paid over $3000 to get it off, and it only cost $85 to put it on!! I think it's about 3 inches tall and 3 inches wide. Not big at all. Also, if your tattoo has green in it, it may not come off because they don't have a laser to remove green yet. If you have any other questions, feel free to email me at [e-mail]

Tatoos are generally for life which is why they can be a source of regret
.I too had a tatt done in my mispent youth that I regretted as I got older,

They are generally removed now by laser surgery, it is not pleasent or cheap and there can be scarring.

Talk to a GP and ask to be reffered to a plastic surgeon.

I understand that there is a lot that can be done but as it is an elective medical procedure cost will be something to consider.

The other thing you can do is see if there is a Tattoo artist who can change the Tatt into something else that you do like and are not ashamed of.

Most of them are bloody clever at this sort of thing and seeing it is faded might be an easier solution.

Answer 5

Have you ever discussed having it covered up?


Talk to a professional tattoo artist. They're good at this sort of thing.




Having a more attractive tattoo put over top of it is going to be much less painful, and MUCH cheaper than having that one removed.

Answer 6

I have a girlfriend who had a large tattoo put on the small of her back. She had it removed by laser about 3 years after getting it and I know she had to go back for several laser treatments. She also said that it was very painful, more painful than getting the tattoo in the first place.

Sorry I don't have better news for you.............

I'm sure there are some idiots who will sand it off, dig it out, or burn you until you can't recognize it I've read about places that will remove gang related tattoos for free or for very little but for some reason, I doubt that is the case here So, to try and get you to understand what kind of question this is: are there any banks in Chicago that give you thousands of dollars? are there any police in Chicago that will pay you to break the law? are there any flying pink elephants in Chicago that I could rent for my sons 178th wedding anniversary? if you are actually trying to get a gang tat removed, I'm not sure who you'd want to talk to. maybe a reputable tattoo joint in the area

Answer 9

cant you have another tattoo over that one
as although theres removal by laser you will still scar
p.s to the question 15 is underage well you can get hold of indian ink and needles
and yes a friend also had hers cut out leaving a scar like a road map so try alternatives

Answer 10

First of all make sure you find a ligitimate CLS - Certified Laser Specialist

Then, talk to a professional.
-Modern technology has proven that tattoos do not need to be permanent. However, the scarring and discoloration that can occur with many types of procedures can be permanent (depending on skin type and tattoo color)
