My Wh let me get a tattoo for him and his cancer before DDay. I am now looking at getting either a tattoo cover up or it partially removed.

Has anyone had removal done? Does it hurt? What were your results like?
Thanks!

I don't have personal experience with tattoo removal, but a friend of mine had it done and it was painful and it didn't really get rid of it completely. She decided to have her other tattoo altered to something else and it looks awesome!

From a google search it looks like removal just lightens it...thanks!! I will maybe just cover it up.

I have a friend who had a tat removed from her neck. It got rid of about 90% of it, but it took quite a while and hurt like hell, she tells me.

I got mine covered up and have heard from many that is the lesser of two evils. I LOVE my new tattoo, well, pre-covid tattoo. Not so new anymore. lol

You could tattoo over the top with ink that's the color of your skin.
