More tattoos.

Besides the laser removal I don't think there is another way to get rid of them. All you can do it do cover up tats or pay the laser.

I second this!!!Cover it up with a better one!!!I would ask why you got a tattoo if you're now wanting to get rid of it.But I already know the answer.Back in the day they would cut them out.I don't know exactly how,but my Grandpa did it to his first wifes name,and then had his second wifes name put in there(my Grandma's).I started to think maybe he was messing with us and I was young when I was told about it,but I heard them mention it on the news.He's dead now or I would ask him.I don't get people who have tattoos removed.Just like some don't get people who get tattoos in the first place.

Their is a ink like thing that the artist can tattoo over the tattoo,that is supposed to make the body reject the ink for whatever reason.I think they still do several sessions,and i'm not sure the price.I think I remember seeing it was cheaper than laser removal.You have to find a special artist to do it I balieve.Not a whole lot make a living at removing them.(shakes head)

If you've ever seen the movie "21 grams", Benicio Del Torro's character get pretty innovative with a heated butter knife

The new thing I hear advertised on the radio is wrecking balm.

I know there are ointments and balms that dissolve the ink over time, but it'd take about 11-12 months to completely fade the tattoo. Expecting to take a lot of time and being patient, plus spending a good chunk of change. Try looking it up on BMEzine.

I wont suggest any other, laser tattoo removal is best option.
Although laser tattoo removal is a costly affair but it still has many advantages which gives laser treatment an edge over other procedures such as dermabrasion, salabrasion, excision, or saline tattooing.

• Laser tattoo removal is relatively painless procedure as compared to other methods.

• Normally the area blisters after the treatment but the chances of infection or permanent scarring are minimal.

• Unlike excision method, laser treatment can handle both small as well as large tattoos.

• Some methods manage to only fade the tattoo rather than its complete removal. Comparatively, laser treatment guarantees far better results.

And make sure thats laser tattoo removal is performed by professional.

I'm in the process of having one removed via laser treatment. Removal does burn quite a bit(both literally and figuratively) but the pain isn't too bad. If anything it's akin to the pain of getting one or perhaps slight more painful. 10 treatments so far at $150/pop and probably another 5 to go. Sorry, no pics though, I'm trying to get rid of the damn thing.

What is it?when did you get it?It's not a womans name is it?

that wrecking balm site is set up like an old con-man tent. can't be a good sign.

you could probably get away with using those products to FADE the tattoo, but to completely remove it, i dont know. i mean, i have a full sleeve tattoo. theres no product short of sulfuric acid that will get rid of that baby, not that i'd want to.

but i tell ya, the man who invents something that removes tattoos, will be a RICH, RICH MAN.

Most the peole on this site are already fading their tattoos with their skin aging cancer fishing.(tanning)I have some tattoos too and I dont get the people who get one and get rid of it.They clearly didn't want it bad enough,or just aren't the typ to have one.Yet they get one anyways. Then theirs the womans name........
