Every year, millions of people, both young and old get new tattoos. Some are done by talented, licensed professionals, some are done at home, and some are done in prisons. With so many tattoos being given by untrained people, it stands to reason that many of these tattoos are going to turn out poorly. Many are just plain ugly! Unfortunately, most of these people quickly regret getting their tattoos. Let’s face it, tattoos aren’t something that fade when you loose interest or mature. You’re kind of stuck with them unless you take drastic measures to get rid of them.
I know a guy who has his son’s name tattooed on his arm. There’s nothing unusual about that. Below the tattoo of his son’s name, is his son’s birthday with a line through it. That’s right! He had a line tattooed through his son’s birthday. He had a good reason to do it. He was drunk when he got the tattoo and he had the wrong date tattooed on his arm. He later had the his son’s correct birthday tattooed under the date with the line through it. It goes without saying that this is a pretty bad looking tattoo and he regrets getting it.
For many years, the only option that people had if they wanted to have a tattoo removed was to have it burned off with at laser. This is not only painful but very expensive. In recent years there have been a few companies that are marketing and selling a product called tattoo removal cream. This is a product that is applied topically over the tattoo. Over a period of time, the tattoo slowly fades away. There is another type of topical tattoo remover that uses an acid called TCA. This is the same acid that salons use for chemical facial peels.
If you’re one of the millions of people who regret getting a tattoo, maybe you should try using a tattoo removing cream.
