dont think they have the technology to totally remove them yet. get a cover up or wait til they can do it properly.

I've heard it hurts 10 times more than the tattoo would have when it was being done.
I've never understood people having tattoos then having them removed though

Well yeah, but I would never go to an artist(e) that I hadnt seen bloody good examples of the work to be fair - its like buying a car and not even seeing it before you buy it.

Fair enough if it hasnt aged well, but you can sharpen the lines up on old tattoos and they look like new again if you get a good artist.
I hate going over old ground but if anyone has the tattoo of someone that is not a son, daughter or member of family has got mental problems and should not consider tattoos again.

No, its not for me to say, but I think anyone in the modern world would agree that its a rediculous idea (unless its the people that have the tattoos of their girlfriends on that disagree) Its asking for trouble and its pointless.

well the lazer stuff was too much i didnt check that any further but theres a tattoo shop near me that does tattoo removal
the way he does it is like getting tattoo'd again but with some kinda chemical that brings the ink out
it was £80 per square inch for 1 session
depending on how long you have had it will depend on how many sessions
