hello, im new here, my name is Motz, im from Barcelona, Spain, and i have a big problem: one day i felt really bad with the world and i told to some amateur tattoo artist to make me a tattoo, on my arm, the thing is that the tattoo really sucks... so, a few years later i went to another "pro" tattoo artist and the guy just made it worst... and a year later i went to another supposed "pro" and its not a tattoo anymore its just a black think with colors and its awful... i would like to pay a laser treatment but are too expensive... i would like to get my own laser or buy a new one, whatever, i just want my own laser and try to take this shit out of me... so if you can help me please give me instructions or some addresses here in Spain or Europe, there is no problem if u give me some clinics addresses i ll check them out too... well, thanks for reading, and cya later! :)
 





I don't think laser tattoo removal is something DIYers can tackle. I think you are going to have to get it professionally done.
 
yeah sorry but i wouldn't really know where to begin, i'm not even sure what wavelength laser they use for that

Hello stranger. Seems like your in quite the predicament. So you wish to buy a high powered IR laser to burn the ink out of your skin. Humm. So, after having paid these so called “tattoo experts” to put ink in your skin, you wish not to pay an expert to burn it out? Go to a tattoo removal clinic. Pay an expert.
 
That would be most unwise.....even when done "professionally" by poorly qualified medical practitioners (and people even less qualified!) laser treatments for removal of tattoos, wrinkles, even hair - can leave horrible scars and aftereffects. I have seen horror stories of people badly burned and disfigured for life who had undergone laser treatments by "specialists" who didn't know what they were doing....

IMO you should save your money (to get someone qualified to do it here in the US there are certifications that reputable practitioners should have but I don't know about Spain) and get some heavy concealer makeup to cover it until you can afford to have it professionally removed.
 
Besides, a tattoo remover is going to cost more than a tattoo removal treatment using the same equipment.Seriously, you should save up and have patience to get it right this time.
 
DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! Anyone who wants a tattoo should be smart enough to KNOW who the professional tattoo person is.(not "supposed"). Q-switched lasers are what the removal techs use.It cannot be done by yourself and cannot be done at home.Even if you boosted the dermal laser it is a more painful process than getting the tattoo in the first place. And even after laser removal has healed you can count on 2 or 3 years before the skin recovers and looks decent. It will never have a pristine appearence.The first rule should always be "THINK BEFORE INK!". Good advice from everyone here. I wish you luck.

i don't know if this'll work. nope ...i am a tard an doan no hata post stuff sorry... it was cool.
 
Seriously...stop making these poor life-choices. Just stop it now or you're going to do yourself harm!

Not sure what the health services are like in Spain, but in the UK, you could approach your doctor and tell him your story. If you tell him that you have become seriously depressed because of your 'disfiguring' tattoo, then you will be able to have it treated on the NHS.

Anyone else from Spain here able to comment on the health-services?
 
Dont even bother trying. You will end up spending more, and most likely scaring yourself, than getting it done by a professional.
