Tattoo Removal Before and After

Educating yourself on the process of a removingyour tattoo and what you can expect the area to look like after the process is complete will help affirm or rethink your proceeding. Depending on what removal method you use the cost is something to be considered as well as the healing time. Before moving forward with your removal plans, consider the following information about tattoo removal before and after:

Tattoo Removal Before and After* Tattoo removal might be possible through laser, cutting it out (excision), dermabrasion or tattoo removal cream
* The lighter the ink the harder the ink is too target
* Ethnicity plays a role in tattoo removal. The darker the skin the more likely there is to have skin color alteration. A patch of lighter skin might overtake where the removed tattoo was
* Tattoo removal is not always a quick fix. Depending on the size and location of the tattoo multiple visits may be needed to insure the tattoo vanishes.

Something that might have seemed like such an easy fix is now complicated when you consider all the information that goes into having it removed and the look of the tattoo before vs. the look of the tattoo afterwards.
