The owner of the tattoo parlor, Rouslan Toumaniantz, refutes the claim, stating that he followed her instructions and that she didn't have a problem with the tattoo until after she returned home.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1193384/Scarred-life-The-teenager-asked-tattooist-THREE-stars-face-ended-constellation.html

Vlaminck is asking for £10,000, as it would cost £8,500 for laser surgery to remove 53 of 56 stars from her face. She also claims she cannot go out in public as people look at her like she is a "freak."http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Tattoo_teenager_left_seeing_stars&in_article_id=686141&in_page_id=2

Rouslan Toumaniantz, the tattoo shop owner denies the story, claiming that Vlaminck asked for 56 stars, did wake up during the process and at no time during her time in the store objected to the tattoo. He went on to say that the only reason she is claiming any wrongdoing is after she returned home, her father objected to the tattoo and her boyfriend left her.http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?Tattoo_teenager_left_seeing_stars&in_article_id=686141&in_page_id=2
