your only real option is a laser… no home remidy can get rid of a tat unless you cut off your skin and i dont think you want that!

you can get it covered up by anopther tat… but flesh collored ink wont do it… try taking a black ink pen and coloring on a piece of paper then taking a white crayon and trying to cover it… there is no way.

For complete removal, the only thing that works is laser removal surgery.

For cover ups, you can purchase a product called derma blend that works well.

“tatoo” huh……

if you’ll search this site…….or use common sense, you’ll find that there are no good home tattoo removal methods.

and there are no flesh colored inks that would cover up a tattoo.
the new ink has to be much darker than the old ink

there MAY be a good creme out there. it is called Wrecking Balm. this product takes about six months to work but has somewhat decent results. however, I have no personal experience with it. one of my friends is going to try it out so he can start over with his sleeve, but it will be months before we can report our findings.
my best answer would be to get a cover up tattoo. have an artist design a new tattoo and tattoo over your old tattoo. my shop specializes in cover ups and custom work. consider it. good luck!

P.S. don’t give me a thumbs down unless you have better advice. I thought my advice was pretty damn good. If you don’t know anything about Wrecking Balm, look it up. IF you don’t think a cover-up is a good option (i’m not talking about flesh colored ink, cause that wouldn’t work. I’m talking about a completely new piece to cover up an old one) consider this. lazering a tattoo: $1,000’s of dollars. getting a new, potentially beautiful piece to cover up your old haggard one, a couple hundred bucks. If you doubt that cover ups are any good, check out this example from my shop.

There are tattoo removal creams out there but they don’t work. Don’t waste your money.
Your best option is to have the tattoo laser removed.
There is flesh colored ink but it won’t just cover a tattoo.
