I was stupid and let a friend give me a tattoo at home. This is a rising trend among young adults. I know very much regret this and want the tattoo removed off with a laser. Are these types of handpoked tattoos easier or harder to remove?
Answer: Are DIY Stick and Poke Tattoos Easier to Remove? DIY Tattoos Still Take Time to Remove Unfortunately, a DIY tattoo creates the same situation as a professional tattoo: You have pigment embedded deep in the layers of your skin. The best way to remove any kind of tattoo is with the PicoWay laser, which shatters the pigment with high-powered bursts of energy. It will probably take at least five treatments to fade your tattoo. Be sure you find a board-certified dermatologist to remove your tattoo, instead of using another DIY method! Those can severely damage your skin.

Answer: Laser Tattoo Removal Facts--takes a series of treatments This can be removed with laser tattoo removal. Tattoos should be removed with q switched or pico lasers. We also use the pfd patch to help speed up the process. It will take a series of treatments, but it's difficult to determine how many sessions will be needed. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a laser tattoo removal expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Stick and Poke Ink This is a great question as I am sure there are many young adults in the same scenario every day. We know that's true because we treat a lot of stick and poke tattoos! Despite conventional thoughts about this being easy to remove as its considered an armature tattoo, they can sometimes be a bit more challenging due to depth of the ink, type of ink used and amount if ink used. We have some clients that remove very rapidly and some that take time because of how deep and dense the ink is set. The type of ink and color of the ink also has a great deal to do with how quickly it is removed.
