If you get the result you want, you seldom ask if it was worth the money. The problem is you can’t always know the result before spending the money.
This isn’t necessarily true with tattoo removal creams.
• You can examine the evidence that they work.
• You control the process. You haven’t invested in multiple skin clinic sessions before realizing you’re not getting what you wanted.
Fading isn’t fast
This is often what causes people to ask if a tattoo removal cream was worth it. They didn’t give it enough time. An effective, safe tattoo removal cream requires repeated application over many months. It brings about a gradual fading. People who take pictures before and during the process often see the changes more clearly.
What are the other options?
If you are worried about money, you should know there is significant cash at stake in the other options for tattoo fading.
1. Surgery: Can cost ten thousand dollars and more
2. Laser surgery: Will cost several thousand dollars
3. Dermabrasion: Will take several hundred dollars worth of sessions.
This brings us back to a tattoo removal cream. Look out for two ingredients.
• One chemical ingredient in common tattoo removal products sold in the United States is banned in three other countries. The ingredient is called hydroquinone and it carries the risk of a link to cancer. Health officials in Japan, France and England outlawed the sale of any tattoo removal cream containing it.
• You’ll run into another risky ingredient in tattoo removal cream. TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid). Dermatologists and skin care professionals use it safely, but not for tattoo removal. It’s an acid and very dangerous around the eyes, nose and mouth or broken skin. Yet, some home tattoo removers are made with TCA. Will you risk complications and side effects all alone at home? Everyone’s skin does not react identically.
There are medically certified safe tattoo removal creams which work in combination with gentle exfoliation, to coerce tattoo ink to the surface. Skin is always regenerating. Over time, the inked cells are replaced with new cells. The tattoo fades naturally. You help it along with gentle exfoliating to safely encourage new skin growth. A tattoo removal cream works when used repeatedly and properly over time. You will need a lot of it. This is why on line sales and home delivery keep the costs down.
Maybe the question isn’t “worth the money” but “worth the time”. The alternative is not attractive. You should use tattoo removal cream as directed, not more than recommended. More won’t speed things up. Resist the temptation to scrub harder to remove old skin. Infection rushes in where redness and swelling occur.
Fading means gradual disappearance. If you simply want to fade one tattoo to replace it with another, the process should take less time. Just as with expensive laser removal and skin clinic techniques, tattoo removal with a cream requires consistent, long term treatment.
You will see the unwanted tattoo fade, gradually but progressively. By then you will long since have decided it was worth the money.
