I have a friend and he got lots of tattoos all over his body. I wonder, if he would decide to remove all the tattoos in his body, what would happen to his skin after the procedure? Would there be some reduction? How long would the procedure last?

There are a lot of laser tattoo removal nowadays so I'd say yes it's possible to reduce it but it would take a lot of sessions to completely remove it. They say that tattoo removal hurts even more than getting a tattoo so let's hope your friend has a high pain tolerance. For some people, it's also possible that they'd get scars from it. He has to be wary of that too.

The only person I know who had a tat removed was my aunt. But that was long before the laser removal. She did get a scar from it. He might look worse removing them. I have a lot of friends that have tats all over their bodies too. I only have two and that`s enough for me.

When a tattoo is removed, a scar would take its place, and sometimes it is as unsightly as the tattoo. I guess you just have to live with it.

Professional laser removal can be very effective; however, it will some scars nonetheless. Scars will unfortunately never disappear. I personally think that it is better to keep the tattoos as the scars will not be any more attractive than what he has right now.
