Unwanted Tattoos
Are unwanted tattoos fixable?
A tattoo is a form of body modification whereby ink, dyes or pigment is injected into the dermis layer of the skin to form a design. With one in five people reported to have a tattoo on their body there’s no hiding how popular they are amongst both men and women. Tattoos range from size, style, design and colour and people choose to have the odd one here or there or to get their fully body tatted. With tattoos being so popular and easily accessible this can lead to some people becoming unhappy with their tattoo and it’s reported that around 38% of people with a tattoo have considered removal.
Why get a tattoo removed?
For people unhappy with a tattoo they have they might be considering removal or reduction. Reduction is a great alternative for anyone that might want to make small changes to their existing tattoo and only have part of it removed. There are a number of reasons as to why someone might be considering tattoo removal or reduction including:
- No longer having a personal connection to the tattoo
- A change in personal circumstances
- A change in taste and the tattoo no longer suiting your style
- You are unhappy with the location of the tattoo
- The design isn't what you had pictured
- You are unhappy with the size of the tattoo
Choosing to have a tattoo removed isn’t an easy decision and the reasons why are personal to the individual. For some people that are unhappy with their tattoos it can have a knock on effect on their self confidence.
