Tattoo Removal Creams - Do They Work?

"I love you, Donna." That tattoo worked really well when you and Donna were an item

. It doesn't work so well with your wife, Kathy. You want to remove it. You know there are multiple methods to remove tattoos, and you know some of them are pretty pricey. You don't have a lot of money to spend so you are thinking about tattoo removal creams. There are a whole bunch of them available. Do they work? Which one will work best for you? How much will they cost?

Tattoo removal creams work by attacking the inks in the tattoo, dissolving them, where they are then absorbed by the body. Only a small amount of ink is removed with each application, so this isn't a one-time use and the tattoo is gone.

How well they work depends on you and the tattoo. The larger the tattoo, the more complex it is, the more colors it has, the more difficult it will be to remove completely. The deeper the inks are, the more difficult they will be to remove.

Your skin type will contribute to the results of a removal cream. You may have an allergic reaction to the cream, so it is wise to test it on a small patch of skin before putting the cream over the whole tattoo. Sometimes a person's natural skin pigmentation will be changed after using a removal cream.

Removing a tattoo with a cream is not a quick process. It can take several months, even a year or longer to fade a tattoo. You must wait several weeks between applications to allow the ink to be absorbed by the body and allow the skin to heal. Do you have the patience for such a long term project?

While the cost isn't as high as some medical procedures, it isn't insignificant. A one month supply of cream typically costs at least $100, and you may be using the cream for a year. You can get cheap creams, but the old cliche, "You get what you pay for" applies. The cheaper creams may not work as well as the more expensive ones.

If you do choose one of the tattoo removal creams, understand that it will obviously take longer and cost more to have the tattoo removed than it did to have it inked on originally. If you don't get the results you hoped for, you can still use a medical procedure, such as laser tattoo removal to finish the job. And it may not cost as much because the tattoo is already pre-faded.
