Especially when some women have a tatoo on there stomach and then they get pregnant.....it used to be a 2 inch tatoo now it's a foot long...

it was REALLY a bad idea...my first tattoo, so i got this heart on my arm, and a cross around it...then it thought it was cool, now it looks like a prison escapee tattoo. it's gross...yeah everyone told me it was a stupid idea but i didnt listen...i have 3 others as well but i kinda like those ones, just this one has to go.

i called a few places, and i think i am going with Bay Laser Clinics...they have certified laser surgeons that do it, and they freeze the area so it doesnt hurt during lasering, and supposedly it wont scar. but it will take about 10 months since they schedule the treatments 2 months apart...which sucks...i wanted it gone before summer. there are other clinics that do treatments a week apart, but i'm hearing those are bad since the area doesnt get to heal at all between treatments, it's a waste of money and a high chance of scarring.

i made an appointment for friday at 5...lets see what they say!

^^ its better to get this type of procedure in the winter months due to less sun exposure. I myself am going to get something similar done and although I wish I could do it before summer, I'm gonna wait till winter. Good luck and make sure to shop around first, try and get at least three opinions from different doctors

i dont think i can live with this until winter!! lol...i know i've put up with it so far, but now that I have the idea in my head to get it removed, that's ALL i can think of now. I went to Hairfreelaser Clinics too, but their price is almost double, and they do weekly treatments, which I heard is bad. So I called Bay Laser...but good point, maybe I should check a couple more places out.

What is it that you're removing? A bad tattoo like me?
