My husband had to get some of his tattoos removed, and I'll tell you that the pain and time involved in getting them removed is much worse than ever having them on to begin with.
Plus, now he has scars from it, and some of the ink still never came out. He went back several times, and each time it wasn't working, so they had to keep cranking up the intensity of the laser even higher and higher. Then the burn from the laser would leave huge fluid filled welts over the area, and then those would break and the wound would be open, then it would heal and scar.
Not to gross anyone out....but just something to think about prior to ever getting a tattoo. My husband and I are not against tattoo's, and he even wants another one.
People just need to think about what they are getting and where they are getting them and if one day they might be required to have them removed such as for a job position or something.
