Laser treatments for tattoo removal - experiences?


Question Posted Monday July 12 2010, 10:08 am

Hi there. 22/f, if it makes a difference.

Has anyone here gotten a tattoo removed via laser treatments? What was your experience? Did it hurt? :( Did it work? How long did it take? Why did you do it? Or, if you thought about it and didn't do it, why not? If you're for or against tattoos, why? If you're for or against their removal, why?

Mine is on my back between my shoulder blades, all black ink, the lines are unfortunately kind of thick, and it's about the size of my palm. I have a consultation with a doctor who specializes in this next week, and I'm a little nervous. :(

Anyway, any experiences with this, bad or good, would be helpful. Any thoughts at all, really, would be appreciated. Feel free to just comment on the idea of tattoos and/or laser removal if the mood strikes you.

Thank you to everyone who responds. :)

I have never had a tattoo removed, but my boss has. She got a chest piece removed several months ago, she said it hurt more than she could have imagined, and she got some pretty bas scars. Last week she actually got a new chestpiece to try to cover up the damage, which didn't turn out too well. Thats the only story of anyone I know personally.

I'd say, if you don't want to risk scars/skin discoloration or any of the potential things that can go wrong, try to get the tattoo changed if you really don't like it, or else leave it alone.
