Other then a laser,and cutting your skin off.How can you remove a tattoo!And does those creams like Wrecking Balm work?

Few several years I have been wanting a tattoo on my lower back. I thought long and hard about the placement, size, and design. I was sure it was something I wanted. Well, I finally got the tattoo and it doesn’t look anything like what I wanted. Now I’m starting to regret getting it. I still love the concept of the tattoo, but I’m just not happy.

1. does the tattoo removal cream actually work?
2. how long would laser removal take?
3. can a I get another tattoo in the same spot after I get the current one removed?

The design is purely gray and black. It is about 6 inches high and about 6 inches wide. I got it less than a week ago.

Please, if all you’re going to say is "You’re stuck with it" or "try scraping it off" don’t answer. I would really appreciate honest and helpful replies. Thank you in advance!

i’m thinking about getting a tattoo but want to weigh my options for after when/if i want to remove it. i’ve been reading that there are removal/fading creams that act as chemical peels, but do these really work? has anyone tried them?

And if so, how good does it work if at all?

After I turned 18 I got a decent sized tattoo on my upper back, it’s an in memory tattoo of sorts, and sadly, i wish i had put it somewhere else. I’ve looked into removal creams, laser, etc, but sadly, I’m not made of money. if anyone has had some success with creams/laser/etc please answer this question with your story/recommendations. Thank you very much in advance.
yeah i have a high pain tolerance.

I got a tattoo a couple years ago .. and I need to get it removed its so big that I want to put a fading cream on it before I get it lasered off .. does anyone have any recommendations for a good tattoo removal cream? Thank you
yeah .. i didnt get too many replies ha thanks for answering ill just do the laser

Does anyone want a 5 month supply of this?
I have got some for sale, brand new and sealed. Five months worth should get rid of your tattoo.
go to their official website to see what its all about.
A lot cheaper than laser and painfree. You just have to be dedicated.
Hard to find in the UK.
Leave a response and I’ll get back to you : )
Can deliver if you’re nearby.
i bought a years worth and my tat wont require it all

I have a rose tattoo that I got back in the early 1980s. It had my ex-wife’s name which was covered in the mid 1990s. It’s pretty blurred now. It has green, red, black and a little yellow.
What is the best tattoo removal cream to fade this as much as possible?

I’m looking for something to remove or at least fade a few small tattoos I have, so that it will be easier for them to be covered. I’ve been browsing a few different products on amazon, but I want to get some opinions first before I buy. Have you ever used any tattoo removal creams/products? Did they work?

About two years ago, my mom had a back piece done which in the long-run, turned out to be about the opposite of what she wanted. It goes from the small of her lower back all the way up to the top of her shoulders. BUT, after the first session, she realized it was not at all what she wanted, It was never finished, and is only a black outline.
She went to go get removed with laser treatment, and it was said it could be removed in only a few sessions, due to the fact that it is not that deep. BUT, it is much to expensive and painful for her. And she would rather try creams!
She has been doing quite a bit of research and has been reading that "Tat B Gone" is one of the leading, and most effective brands. But she wants to make sure before she buys this brand.
So, is this one the best brand she can get? Or do you guys have any suggestions of other brands?

Thanks guys!(:

For me, it is this one, from a 21 year old girl who already regrets her tattoos (80% of all people who get tattoos eventually regret them)

Hi! I am 21 & have my entire back tattooed -Yeah, the whole thing.. I got the first piece done for my 13th birthday. That piece was done by an amateur & ended up scarring horribly. I mean BAD. To this day the 4×4 tribal piece is easily irritated, always puffy & well.. scarred. I was so self conscious about it that I decided to add to it – aiming to take the focus away from the black scar.. So at 15 I added to it… I was involved with the wrong crowd of people at that time in my life & was exposed to heavily tattooed people so it was "no big deal" – Plus, this was a while ago & the removal procedures/theories were fairly new & extremely pricey! To make a long story short by 19 I had most of my back piece done. It is very colorful, containing: black, white, greywash, violets, turquoise, orange, green, red etc.. I am very very serious about removing it but am terrified of the scarring. Not so much the cost but the chance of a bad heal w/ scarring & tattoo traces unable to be removed. I really wish I would have never began this insane body modification as I am now a mature adult with a great corporate job, family responsibilities & the desire to be more feminine I guess – Not such a freakshow. It’s like living two lives with this amount of " permanent art".. Thats just the thing – PERMANENT – Wasnt thinking about that @ 13…I know it sounds dumb & this probably isnt the forum to post my story in but I really want some "real" feedback. We all know that $$ is the name of the game & everyone will try to sell you something – especially when they can take advantage of others in such an emotional desperation oriented way. I was considering this tat be gone – sounds weak though – maybe good on a little tattoo – what about a huge back piece?! Can someone vouch for the credibility of removal on large long lived professional tattoo’s?!

At least that girl did not have a face tattoo. Here’s what will most likely come from Face Tattoos = future suicide. These design choices are so notoriously linked with regret that it has been found the suicide rate for people with face tattoos are much higher than average. Whatever the thinking in getting a face tattoo, the chances of regret are so great that it’s just not worth it. The face is the one area that you can’t really cover up in public and many people underestimate the impact of face ink.
But if face tattoos lead to suicide, doesn’t the same principle apply to other tattoos?

Aside from laser tattoo removal and the other types of medical tattoo removal, have any one tried to remove their tattoo themselves? I was thinking of buying a numbing topical cream and place it on the tattoo and use a scalpel to remove the tattoo. Anyone have tried this or anything thing else to remove a tattoo?
Thank you

would waxing help the tattoo last longer, or maybe a hair removal cream like Nair?
its 2 months old…

Hello…. I am a medium -dark skin person and I have a burn scar on my thigh. Most of the scar has over the years has blended with my skin. However, the inner outline of the scar is hyperpigmented (darker). I was wondering if there are any tattoo artists that would be able to mix colors in order to blend the darker area of the scar with the lighter area. I know that there is a new procedure out where hypopigmented (lighter) scars can be blended but they can not work with scars that are darker than your complexion. I have tried laser scar removal, creams, etc…. nothing has been effective. That is why I figured maybe a tattoo artist could blend it. Please keep in mind that I do not want your typical tattoo with tribal, butterflies, etc. I am simply looking for someone to be able to blend the darker parts or lighten them.
Thanks.

I am trying to get rid of a very small tattoo that I did with India Ink. It is an anarchy sign with very thin lines and it is approx an inch in diameter. I am just wondering about your opinions on laser removal. How many treatments would it take for India Ink? What is a fair price for removal of such a small tattoo? I thought about using cream at first to fade it so I wouldn’t have to pay for as many treatments, but all of the good reviews sound like advertisements and it sounds like a scam. Any of your input would be appreciated.
