Tattoo Fading Leads to Removal

Tattoos are a trend that have certainly gotten under a lot of people’s skin.  Especially, for those people that have witness some tattoo fading occurring with age.

While tattoos are not like bad haircuts that eventually grow out, tattoos also do not remain permanently the same forever.

Tattoos fade with age, this is apparently something many people are realizing after the fact, evidence of the rising number of tattoo removal being performed.
 
According to the American Society of Dermatological Surgery, in 2001, 44,760 tattoo removal procedures were reportedly performed in the U.S.  In 2003, that number increased significantly to 61,772 tattoo removal procedures. And data is currently being reviewed for 2007.

The fact of the matter is as people age, their skin ages too, and naturally tattoos fade and age with the skin.  So, if people want their tattoos to look good for as long as possible, they have to take care of their skin and at the same time their tattoo.

Most common reasons for tattoos fading are:

1. Excessive sun exposure

2. Failure to properly care for tattoo during healing process

3. Amateur tattoos or tattoo artist did not apply the pigment correctly using a steady hand

The most common reason for fading colors is ultraviolet light, especially sunlight.

Excessive amounts of sun will fade tattoos at the same rate it causes skin damage.  To protect against damage and fading it’s important to wear daily SPF and limit time in direct sun.

Adopt the habit of good skin care and daily sunscreen to protect today’s tattoo from regretting tomorrow’s fading, and the hassles of tattoo removal.

New Trend of Tattoo Removal Parties

party
Noun
pl -ties
1. a social gathering for pleasure or amusement
2. a group of people involved in the same activity: a tattoo removal party

Everyone likes parties, and they should.  What’s not to like about eating, drinking, mingling, laughing, and having a great time?  These days parties come in all forms of activities from knitting to tattooing.  And, while tattoo parties have been a popular trend for a long time…

There is a new take on tattoo parties taking off– Tattoo Removal Parties.

Similar to having tattoo parties, groups of tattoo friends get together at someone’s house, and one by one everyone takes a turn helping each other with tattoo removal. 

Many people are just starting to learn about tattoo removal parties. Thanks to the advance home tattoo removal system Wrecking Balm, a new trend of tattoo removal parties are sweeping the nation helping many people who want tattoo removal, but do not want to go through the process of removing tattoos alone. 

It’s a new take on taking off tattoos with friends taking turns hosting weekly and bi weekly tattoo removal parties at one another’s houses.  And when the group is not together socializing, individuals are at home using Wrecking Balm continuing the tattoo removal process on their own.

Tattoo removal parties are quickly taking off in popularity among the growing number of people wanting to remove tattoos affordably.  These tattoo removal parties offer an additional commitment among friends to stick with the tattoo removal process; inspire personal and group motivation with visible progress of tattoo removal, which is something especially helpful for individuals to see with slower tattoo fading of their own; and an opportunity to take each other’s before, during, and during photos to measure the tattoo removal process.

But, perhaps the best reason explaining the new rising trend of tattoo removal parties are they offer a means for friends to spend a few quality hours together on a regular basis eating good food, and shooting the breeze as they remove tattoos together.

Wrecking Balm Home Tattoo Removal Cream Tops Google Results  

A quick Google search of home tattoo removal creams on the market, by product brand name produced the following results below, and it is easy to see WreckingBalm® by far has the most people searching directly by name in comparison to the other home tattoo removal creams on the market. 

Ironically, WreckingBalm® is the only home tattoo removal cream that is more than a cream.  All of the other home tattoo removers involve applying creams or gels on the surface of tattoo skin to lighten and fade ink.  The only true differences between the other tattoo removal creams are ingredients, number of steps or different creams/gels to apply, and frequency or how often to apply.

Wrecking balm® is unique as it is the only tattoo removal cream system that includes FDA approved technology in the form of hand-held device to safely intensify two techniques of tattoo fading and removal.

Initially people hear or read the name Wrecking Balm and assume “balm” it must be another home tattoo removal cream, but once people learn about the wrecking balm system; FDA approved hand device with a combination approach of tattoo fading they see it is far more than a home tattoo removal cream.

Gone are the Days of Old School Tattoo Removal

Today, people are fortunate to have several different methods of tattoo removal to choose from.  And, within the past ten years, newer tattoo removal technology has also made tattoo removal easier and less painful than the days of old school tattoo removal.

Ironically, the most popular tattoo removal methods ten years ago are rarely performed today.  Dermabrasion, cryosurgery, and excision were the well known ways to remove tattoos, but now they are thought of as “old school” tattoo removal.
 
Dermabrasion actually sands the skin to remove the surface as well as the middle layers.  As you can imagine, sanding off layers of skin can be very painful, especially if tattoos are large. With dermabrasion tattoo removal usually the majority of a tattoo can be removed, but there are some tattoos that dermabrasion has not been successful at removing.

Cryosurgery is another old school tattoo removal method that doctors used in the past. This technique requires freezing the tattoo skin before attempting dermabrasion.  Freezing the skin makes the procedure fairly painless during removal, but as soon as the skin thaws pain sets in, and the pain can be extremely uncomfortable.

Excision is the literally the old school removal of tattoos where a doctor cuts out and removes the tattoo with a scalpel. After the tattoo is removed the remaining skin is stitched together with sutures leaving behind a scar.  Large tattoos often require skin grafts in order to close area where the tattoo once existed and now remains a wound.

Tattoo removal has most certainly made significant progress making it much easier and less painful to remove tattoos today, in comparison to the old school tattoo removal methods used just 10 years ago.

Rib Tattoos Remove Tramp Stamp Tattoo Trend

The economy may be heading in the wrong direction, but that doesn’t mean tattoos are, especially women tattoos.  These days tattoos are looking up, or rather moving up for women.  The new rising tattoo trend has women removing tattoo “stamps” on their lower backs, and opting for the new sexy tattoo trend — Rib Tattoos.

Almost as soon as the derogatory, sexually humiliating term “tramp stamp” reared women with lower back tattoos began getting tattoo removal and trading in their tainted tattoos for new sexy rib tattoos that crawl up the side of their bodies.

Today’s weak economy is changing the tattoo industry in terms of women’s tattoo trends.  Although, the rate of women getting their first tattoos doesn’t seem to be decreasing, the amount of money women are spending on their tattoos is. 

Other emerging tattoo trends for women are celebrity name tattoos, especially popular these days Nicole Richie rosaries; vintage American tattoos such as skulls, hearts, stars, and anchors; Japanese (koi fish, ocean waves) styles; as well as a swing from English-style block lettering to fancier script letters.

Expect many women to follow the celebrity tattoo trends of Megan Fox and her rib cage tattoo with the words “There once was a little girl who never knew love until a boy broke her HEART” until someone creates a derogatory, sexually humiliating term for women rib cage tattoos like “Ho handle.”

Tattoo Don’ts to Avoid Tattoo Removal

Here are a few Tattoo Don’ts to do when getting a tattoo to avoid needing or wanting tattoo removal to undo tattoo rues.  (Phew!) 

Don’t tattoo yourself.  Don’t ask your friend to tattoo you either.  Tattooing involves needles and blood, which can lead to infections, serious health complications and even death.
 
Don’t go to a tattoo artist that does not use sterile technique when tattooing. Walk out the door of a tattoo shop that at first sight looks unclean (dirty is dirty).  And make sure the tattoo artist wears clean gloves and does not use needles on more than one client.

Don’t let a tattoo fester with possible infection. If you suspect problems with your new tattoo such as redness or soreness don’t wait, as these are signs your tattoo have an infection.  Infections are serious and must be treated properly to avoid serious illness.

Don’t look for bargain tattoos.  Choosing a tattoo artist should not be about the best price, it should be based on quality of tattoo work.
 
Don’t be a daring, impulsive, adventurous, intoxicated, or high when getting a tattoo.  Seriously, you are making the decision to get a tattoo that is considered permanent.  And, while there are ways to remove tattoos, tattoo removal is not something that is easy to do. 

Consider doing these Tattoo Don’ts to avoid tattoo removal, and read more advice on Tattoo Do’s and Tattoo Don’ts on this blog.

On the Way to Remove Tattoos

Many people look at tattoo removal as a way to start a new chapter in life, and remove a painful reminder of perhaps an unpleasant past.
 
The point of tattoo removal is somewhat easy to understand; remove a tattoo that is no longer wanted. The process of tattoo removal is another story that is not so easy to complete.  Something people quickly realize easy and painless are not words most would use to describe tattoo removal, as there is no fast, painless easy way to remove tattoos.
 
Unfortunately, tattoo removal is not a painless, easy process.  The pain of tattoo removal comes not only from the uneasiness and discomfort of some tattoo removal methods, pain is also felt in how painfully long tattoo removal can take, as well as the expensive burden and strain removing a tattoo can generate.

More often than not, the amount of time and cost of tattoo removal are what prevents people going forward with a way to remove tattoos. 

The good news for people looking to move forward and remove tattoo reminders of the past is tattoo removal is becoming more and more progressive everyday.  So many advances have already been made in tattoo removal making it easier for people to find a way to remove tattoos and move on to a new chapter in life. 

And as tattoo removal continues to progress at the same rate it is, in the near future easy tattoo removal will be the way to remove all tattoos.

Well-Known Tattoo Removal Options

I have options?

In good judgment tattoos are beautiful designs of artwork, yet in poor judgment tattoos are unsightly displays that lack reasoning. Thankfully, there are different tattoo removal options available that are well-known options to remove tattoos within reason.

Here are some well-known tattoo removal options available to remove tattoos.

Laser Tattoo Removal and Intense Pulse Light represent two of the newest tattoo removal options available.  The option of using lasers for tattoo removal developed for the most part during the last 10 years. 

Pulses of specific laser lights are used to target tattoo ink pigments that over time and several treatment sessions, work to breakdown the tattoo design and remove the ink.  Laser is an option of tattoo removal that is popular and unpopular, popular for being a reasonably effective removal option and unpopular for being both a highly uncomfortable and expensive method of tattoo removal.

Surgical Tattoo Removal or Excision involves cutting the outline of the tattoo out of the skin, then stitching the remaining skin back together.  This tattoo removal option is ideal for very small tattoos.  The trade off of removing tattoos with surgical tattoo removal is trading a tattoo for a scar.

Tattoo Cover Up is an alternative option of tattoo removal that actually does not involve the removal of tattoos, but rather covering up tattoos with another tattoo.  This method of tattoo removal is an option for people that like having a tattoo just don’t like the tattoo they have.  Cover up tattoo designs must be reasonably darker than the existing unwanted tattoo as they literally are tattoos to cover up tattoos. 

Tattoo Removal Balm or Tattoo Fade Cream is another tattoo removal option available for people looking for alternatives to surgical and laser tattoo removal.  Tattoo removal balm and tattoo fade creams are reasonable and affordable tattoo removal options without the pain and hassle of multiple appointments, expensive doctor’s bills, and actual treatment pain. Tattoo fading creams and removal balm breakdown tattoo ink within the skin cells using the body’s natural renewal process for healthy, new, ink free skin.
