Can i completely remove a tattoo?

is there any other way to remove a tattoo than laser ? i heard laser leave burns on the skin.

Laser is the best way. Laser generally only burns if you or the tech do something wrong. If the area is cooled sufficiantly prior to and after laser there's no problem (laser are equipped with the cooling equipment). If you spend a lot of time out in the sun and lie about it to the tech, you'll burn. How much you'll have to go in for removal depends on the tattoo. Green is the hardest color to get rid of. Black is the easiest. Tribal tattoos tend to be deeper so it takes longer to get rid of them.
There are a few things you can do, but they are all going to be very damaging to the skin and will likely scar somewhat. Your other options besides laser are dermal abrasion and complete skin removal of the tattoo. All very painful, all damaging to the skin. Creams do not work.
nope not that i know of, why do you want to remove it?? If you just don't like it you could cover it with another tattoo?? Can't be that bad??
I have been searching forever & cannot find any other way.I tried TCA since Christmas, so far with no results. There are other creams like Tat2bgone & wrecking balm but do to the price have not tried either of them.Check em out. If you try either of them, please let me know how it turns out. Good Luck!
I've never heard of any way then lasering. Which they say hurts much worse then actually getting the tattoo. It can take several sessions, and probably very costly.
i am trying TCA and so far i'm starting to see the difference. and it would leave scar if you didn't take care or follow the instructions.i dont know if the TCA that really works.or it's probably because the tattoo is so poor and done by an unprofessional artist. (ps. i got it in a studio called rock city in belleville nj the artist named juan or jose or smth like that. really, dont go there).
