Fading Older Tattoos in Preparation for a Cover-up Tattoo (Example 2 of 3)
(All photos are of actual Tattoo Removal Laser Clinic® clients)
If you are interested in replacing or covering up an existing tattoo with another tattoo, it's good to know that the cover-up will be much more successful when the existing tattoo is first faded out through the tattoo removal process. Fading the old tattoo will give the tattoo artist a better 'canvas' to work on and much more flexibility with the new design, as the old design won't be showing through. Below is the second of three photo sequences displaying examples of the fading process.
