Introduction
- Unfortunately, there are no easy ways to get rid of tattoos. No matter which method you choose, you can almost guarantee that it will be expensive and painful, however circumstances often dictate that you get rid of tattoos. Perhaps you've got a new job that requires you to look as professional as possible, or you need to get rid of Maria's name from your bicep now that you're preparing to marry Vanessa. The information on this page will offer insight into getting rid of unwanted ink.
Step 1: Cut It Out
- One painful method of tattoo removal is incision removal. This is a step-by-step process in which a surgeon cuts out parts of the tattoo piece by piece over time. It is not immediate, as depending on the size of the tattoo, it may take several visits to have the tattoo fully removed. This method may result in scarring.
Step 2: Chemical Peel
- Chemical peels are another slow removal method during which you receive chemical treatment which breaks down the skin so that over time the skin peels away.
Step 3: Dermabrasion
- Using abrasion methods to remove tattoos basically requires that you sand the tattoo away over time. A chemical is sprayed over the surface and an electrical sander is then used to buff away the ink. Several visits may be required to complete this method of tattoo removal.
Step 4: Laser Removal
- Q-Switched lasers, which were discovered in the 1990s are the new innovation in tattoo removal. There are several different types of q-switched lasers, each one specifically designed to eliminate ink from different skin types and ink colors. Several passes of the laser will be required to remove the tattoo entirely, and this method is not without its drawbacks, including painful recovery from each treatment.
Conclusion
- One of the most painful parts about tattoo removal is the cost. No matter which method you choose to endure, you can expect to pay for it. You can also guarantee that you will have to endure some pain. Getting rid of a tattoo is harder then getting it to begin with, so expect it to be difficult. The best method is to prevent getting a tattoo you aren't sure of in the first place; unfortunately, hindsight is 20/20.
