Home Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is by far the best way to remove a tattoo if you can afford it, but there are drawbacks and limits to the pigment colors that modern lasers can effectively remove. Light colored tattoo pigments are difficult to remove, require more trips and treatments and therefore are more expensive to remove than dark pigmented tattoos. The cost of laser removal can be up to 10 times the cost of the original tattoo.
Over the past several years, manufacturers have developed many tattoo removal options that are much less expensive than laser surgery and can be used in the privacy of your own home. Some of these products work better than others. It's difficult to know which home tattoo removal products work the best when you have no prior experience with any of these products.
When possible, rely on the experience of a friend who has gone before you for advice on which product worked best for them. If you have no one to give you a recommendation on a specific product then you have to do your own research, and there is plenty of information about all the home tattoo removal products on the internet.
The problem is not a lack of information, but rather to much information. So much in fact that it is difficult to know which product advertisements are true and which are not.
Here are a few tips on how to choose the right home tattoo removal product for your specific needs:
- As mentioned above try to get a personal recommendation from a friend, if possible
- Tattoos are meant to be permanent. You should have no expectation that at home tattoo removal will be easy or without any inconvenience or some amount discomfort
- If you see advertising that promises to remove a tattoo by rubbing a cream into your skin once or twice a day with no discomfort or inconvenience then use your common sense and remember the old adage, “If it sounds too good it probably isn't true”
- People with tattoo regret must remember one important thing, there is not enough profit in tattoo removal for the large drug companies to spend money on the research required to come up with a painless once a day or twice a day cream that will somehow magically remove a tattoo from your skin at a reasonable price. Such a product does not currently exist.
- If you find a product that you think sounds good, a quick check for the following could save you a lot of time and wasted money:
1). Is there a toll-free telephone number listed on the site for a quick information check?
2). Do they offer a guarantee? If so, read it to make sure it sounds reasonable. The guarantee should be long enough for you to test the product to find out if it actually works.
3). Do they list their e-mail address on the website? If they just have an e-mail form without listing an e-mail address, be wary.
4). Do they list a physical address on the site? If the answer to most of these questions is no move on to the next product.
In conclusion do your homework, don't believe everything you read, use common sense while doing your research and you will find a product that does what it says for a reasonable price and meets your specific criteria for at home tattoo removal.
