Chav Tat Removal

[Goldberg]

An update after my second session and a link to the whole thing if your interested:

Ouch.....

That is all...!

[Goldberg]

It's a toe curler!!

But once it is done it is done. You get some bruising but no pain really... You just have to endure the 5/10 minute sessions every 6 weeks...

Cannot wait until I get the one on my Shoulder done... Especially when he told me that the purple/blues will be difficult (which means 2 or 3 on the laser setting)...

He did tell me however that for £60 a session, if the front needs any more he will do that for gratis

I bought 4 sessions for £85 in total for what I am currently going through which was a bargain compared to the £240+ it would normally cost. But you do these silly things when you are young!

I came so close to getting a Taz tat when i was about 17....

Glad i did not... lol

[Goldberg]

I think I did it for you at 17!

[JonEp]

Thanks for the update.

I was looking for the old thread a while back to see what happened with the cream.

I think we all knew the cream was never going to work but secretly hoped it would.

[Goldberg]

Yep, the cream... lol

I ended up throwing that away, what a waste of £50! But you do make these drunken purchases.. I think the whole removal thing was a drunken purchase too!

[flumperino]

Is that all it costs, I thought that laser treatment was supposed to be thousands?

[Goldberg]

I got a Groupon deal - £85 for 4 sessions and a consultation.
He has told me £60 for subsequent sessions.

I thought it was thousands too, but clearly not.

This is in a very good Tattoo parlour on Wardour Street in Soho, just next to my old office.

[tombott]

So glad I never got any tattoo's. Nothing against them per say, just not my thing.
Will be interested to see the final results on this.

[Goldberg]

He claims zero scarring but you might feel it. Not a problem really, I just want rid of them. The Taz for sure as I see it every single day!

You do these things when you are young...

[Thrush]

I too am looking a tat removed from my lower back..... 17 year old parental rebellion on my part (wanker).

That seems very reasonable, I'll have to look into the prices in Japan.

Thanks for the blog link!

[webslinger2k]

enjoying reading this blog mate, pls keep updating it so we can see ur progress

[Goldberg]

My 3rd session in a couple of weeks.
I'll post an updated pic in the next couple of days.

The bloke told me he would continue the removal for free after the 4th session if I agree (as requested) to get the on off my back done (which I would pay full whack for).

Fading but not as much as I would like. Been busy hence the lack of updates.

[Geko]

I am seriously looking into this now too. I have one on my forearm I want gone and one on my lower back. The others I can live with, one I still like 10 years later... But most I regret.

[diablos]

Whatever happened to taking it off with a belt sander the manly way.

Lazers are for fags.

me mum had hers carved out with a razor blade, old skool style. I never asked her what they actually were before they were removed, some things are best left in the past me thinks.

[casio]

I know someone who tried the razor method, it got infected and still looks a mess, she said at the time her Dr said it was 50-50 about a skin graft

[Geko]

A razor doesn't sound like the smartest idea to me. Like the guy who used a shotgun on his wart.

I nominate thee for a Darwin Award.

[Goldberg]

I once tried the freeze spray you use to remove chewing gum on a genital wart...
