Tattoo removal

[monkeybonkey]

Hi,

   I'm interested in removing tattoos with lasers.  Looking around the internet, I see a top end machine for a dermatologist is around $80,000, though ones for smaller clinics are in the $1,500 range.  So that's a ballpark for a professional.

   What I'm curious about is an in-home tattoo removal laser.   Those who describe what the laser feels like for tattoo removal say it's like getting splattered with hot drops of bacon grease or snapped with a rubber band.  There's usually some blistering involved, but no permanent scarring.  So, that would give you some idea of the power range.  

    Can someone here give me a ballpark idea of what the price range might be?

I don't have any tattoo though - anything permanant or not easily removed -is not for me

Thanks very much.

What model would you suggest for $43.00?

Are there cheap goggles, (kinda like those limited use 3-d glasses that have a cardboard frame) that could be used in the kit?
