A tattoo is for life, not just for Christmas....think wisely before you have it done!
 
"A tattoo lasts longer than a relationship" thats the best advice I was ever told.

My younger sister is currently going through the first of 5 sessions of lasering her ex-boyfriends name from her wrist. YOUCH!!!!!! :eek:

What is the skin like afterwards? I would like a black one removing - is it more painful than childbirth? :lol:
 
Hiya.
It's £50 for 15 mins for tattoo erase.. i have the band on my arm done for that (1st treatment - need to cover the entire tattoo with the little circles so need about 8 treatments)
Never had a baby but i'd imagine that to be ALOT more painfull! :eek:

It is the same thing as having a tattoo, same needles, but they have to work the liquid in in little circles but the solution does contain anaesthetic

The skin scabs up after - tattoo is black - you get black scabs and then after about 2 - 3 weeks the little scabs fall off. (nice when you find little black dots in your bed - hubby picks it up and asks what it is, lol )
this one was an ankh (haven't got a before pic - never photographed without sleeves!)

you get the idea of what it used to look like... but black

My sister hasnt had kids so she cant compare but she said it was no different to getting the tat in the first place.
Hers is black scroll writing and her sessions are £20. The writing has already gone blurred after the first one.
She said that how it work they put this liquid into the tattoo via the needle and electrify it which breaks down the ink.. allowing your skin to grow it out .. or something like that.
(correct me if I'm wrong) LOL

She has got this cream she rubs on also just before she goes into the session.. cant remember what its called.. begins with A.:rolleyes:

See if I can get some pics sorted for ya. xxx

Hi

I have had a tattoo on my arm removed by laser and the results are fantastic, it was about 10cm tall and 4 -5cm wide and i have had 12 treatments over 2 and a half years. It was all black which is the easiest colour to remove (reds, green, yellow are the hardest). Its cost me about $1200 (Australian) to remove but the treatments are over a long period so you dont notice the cost much.

It hurts but each treatment goes for only like 5 mins - they just trace the laser over the entire tattoo. I never got any scabbing and the skin looks completely normal. I might go back for one more treatment as there is still a section you can just see it (they said i might need one more)

Is the tattoo erase like trying to white it out with white ink? i got told that the results from this are not as good as laser.

Anyway i would highly recommend laser as it has removed mine really well with absolutely no scarring or damage to my skin, wish id never got the damn thing in the first place though :lol:
