Tattoo Removal Cream – The Use Of Wrecking Balm



On the note of last weeks post a tattoo removal cream that you might want to look into is the use of wrecking balm. 

This is one of the popular creams out there at the moment but there also have been people that have said that there is no point into using it. 

How It works

Wrecking balm comes with a small handheld device that has sandpaper on and you dab on some cream and use it to rub off the first layer of skin (isn’t as painful as it sounds).

This makes it easier for the cream to get deeper down to the ink pigment and make it easier to break down

How To Remove Tattoos At Home – The Use Of Removal Cream



There are plenty of options that you can use to remove tattoos at home but some that are starting to make a movement are the use of removal creams. With this increase of interest there is also now the increase of the products on the market. 

How Do They Work

Removal creams have various ingredients in and the main way that most of them work is that they penetrate down into the skin and break up the tattoo pigment in the body, after breaking up the pigment the body is therefore allowed to reject the pigment.

This doesn’t work straight away and will take a few weeks/months to go through before hitting the fading and removal process.

How Long Will It Take

As mentioned there is no time to tell how long it can take as everyone is different, there are various factors that can change around the timing:

  • ·         How deep the ink is
  • ·         How fresh the ink is
  • ·         Whether any colours are used
  • ·         How big the piece is

What Product To Use

There are many products out on the market due to the increase of interest. For this reason it is hard to come up with what option that you can use.

With the vast amount of products there comes a lot of reviews that will make it even more confusing for you to decide on what you want to use.

Take Note

You will have to talk to your doctors before buying any of these so you know whether or not it is safe to use to remove tattoos at home for you.

How To Fade A Tattoo – Aloe Vera



A method that has been talked about on how to fade a tattoo is the use of aloe vera. This is a natural method that is obviously a really cheap alternative that you can go through instead of options such as laser surgery, dermabrasion and other invasive options. 

Aloe Vera

This is a natural product that you can buy in plenty of supermarkets and stores near yourself and are very cheap to get. 

This has been said to be able to be used as an option for tattoo removal and there is some science behind it as well. 

How It Works

Aloe vera is a water based solution and by rubbing it on a tattoo it traps any ink pigment and removes it from the skin. 

The only problem with this however is that it is hard to break up the actual pigment in the skin (things like lasers simply break up the pigment to be removed).

Aloe vera is said to be very effective to remove on new tattoos as there is a lot of pigment around that can be removed. 

Does It Work?

It can’t be said whether this method really works, the most it can do is fade out some of the ink but it can’t be used for full removal with all the pigment in the skin but it is an option to go through and one to look into if you want to fade a tattoo.
