How to cover a tattoo? Have you tried these methods?

In everyone's impression, it is better for girls not to have tattoos, otherwise they will be classified as bad people. There are still many girls who do this in real life. If you want to cover it up, you might as well try chemical corrosion, liquid nitrogen freezing, laser burning and other methods.

1. Chemical etching method

Generally, a dilute weak acid solution is used to cause superficial burns on the skin, causing the pigment to fall off along with the necrotic tissue.

2. Laser ablation

It is a method of removing pigments by using laser to burn and carbonize the superficial skin tissue.

3. Liquid nitrogen freezing method

The tattoo is removed by freezing the superficial skin with liquid nitrogen to cause it to necrotize and fall off.

4. Dermabrasion

It is a mechanical method to remove the superficial layer of the skin to remove the pigment inside.

The above method is characterized in that it is suitable for removing shallower tattoo patterns. Each treatment should not be too deep. If the removal is not thorough, it can be repeated. Depending on the depth of the skin removed each time, each recovery takes 1 to 2 weeks, and there is a 1 to 3 month interval between each treatment. The disadvantages are that the skin may be pigmented or lost after the operation; scars will be left when the skin is removed too deeply, and it is difficult to completely remove darker pigments.

5. Excision and suturing method and excision and skin grafting method

For deeper tattoo patterns (reaching the deep dermis or even subcutaneous tissue), the above methods are difficult to work, so consider surgically removing the entire layer of skin of the affected area. If the wound is relatively narrow, it can be sutured directly. Due to a certain tension, a more obvious scar will be left after the operation. If the wound is difficult to suture, consider removing thinner skin (fractionated skin graft) from other parts of the body such as the thigh for skin grafting. The disadvantage is that the color and texture of the grafted area will be poor after the operation.

6. Laser tattoo removal

The principle is to use laser to act on the affected area, breaking the pigment particles into extremely small particles without causing skin burns, and gradually excreting them from the body through the urinary system through blood circulation. This method does not damage the living tissue of the skin, leaves no scars after the operation, and has good results. It is currently the best choice for tattoo treatment. But it is expensive.
