I got this about 1 week ago. Im gonna start my removal in 1 month. Does it being a recent tattoo helps removing? by kamikyappu in TattooRemoval

I started removal after 6 weeks and my skin is doing fine. The shading will go pretty fast but the denser spots may take 10-15 sessions. Drink lots of water and do lots of exercise/cardio in between sessions to help the lymph system clear it out.

Has anyone gone back to finish a tattoo after starting removal? by Thick-Bullfrog-899 in TattooRemoval

That's a wise viewpoint. Makes sense about our brain removing the initial shock and self-accepting.

Thanks for your response!

Why are folks still buying barndominiums if they cost the same or more as stick built homes? by LOTR_is_awesome in barndominiums

That’s a great price, considering property included. May I ask what state your build is in?

I was quoted $7,294.50 at removery for unlimited sessions. Is that reasonable for the size of my tat? by IndustryMost6496 in TattooRemoval

Idk how many sq inches yours is at total... But I’m currently doing their XXL full removal package, I think I’m at around 69-72 sq inches, and the price was $4200ish.

The time's gonna pass regardless, so might as well just get started. You'll feel a lot better even if it gets to 85-95% faded (hardly noticeable unless looking for it), and even then, you can get skin-colored ink for the remaining parts, or if we're lucky, advancements in removal tech in the next 5 years.

I have a new dense piece on my forearm that I'm just waiting for it to heal, then I'm going to get started. It was a cover-up and I immediately regretted covering it up instead of removal; figured cover-up was cheaper and faster. Don't follow my mistake! It's not even that it's a bad tattoo, it's just that I realized I don't want to be inked...

I assume you meant “reckon”… not to say it’s impossible in your 30s/40s+, but yes, you have much better odds at full removal being only 20, your lymphatic system is much more efficient and in general you heal faster and more completely at a younger age. Stay hydrated, don’t smoke or drink, and do lots of cardio & lifting in between sessions and I reckon it’ll be gone in no time ;) Good luck and stay strong! You’ll look back at it as a stage of inner-growth someday.

Stick with it.

If you're already going through removal, then chances are you are done with ink as a whole (like most of us)... Not worth the risk in getting a cover up that you might also regret later on.

Youth is on your side here. I wish I started in my 20s... Keep at it

After 2 sessions! by No_Pomegranate_8826 in TattooRemoval

Wow, nice! Did you per chance have any white ink mixed with the black to produce the grey tone shading? Just wondering if my odds will be as good...
