I love tattoos. However, I have one large one that I would like to have removed. Has anyone had any successfully removed and/or any further advice?

I just have ear piercings but I’d love to get a tattoo, my problem is I’m quite fickle and can’t decide on what I’d want and where. I’m also not really allowed tattoos showing because of my job so I’m thinking either back or the neck/upper back, or upper thigh possibly. I’ve had a few different ideas over the years but never felt like it was the “perfect” one. I suppose whatever I get it would just become part of me and I’d like it anyway!

I'm the same with tattoos showing because of my job. I've 2 but neither can be seen at work. Both have meaning to me but I had to draw them on roughly before I got them to make sure I would like them and where they were and all! I'm hoping to get a third whenever they open up again
 
I have three tattoos and six piercings. I’ve had the piercings for years now but I’d definitely like some more tattoos at some point

A girl I speak to at the gym was having a tattoo removed from her hand. She went to Sk:n Clinics, you just basically have as many sessions as needed until the tattoo is gone. Tattoos which have colours in them require more treatments, than single colour tattoos. So the tattoo on the left hand side would need more treatments than the one on the right:

I've got a few ear piercings, tongue and a vch.

Really would like a tattoo but have no idea what I would like!
 
What was the most painful place for tattoo / piercing? None of mine were too bad, it was the length of time one of them took that aggrivated me moreso than the pain

One of my cartridge piercings just never settled. I persevered with it for a few years but it kept swelling and bleeding so eventually I gave up and just took it out.

I didn’t find any of my tattoos too painful but of the three, the one on my ribs was quite sore while it was being done. It didn’t take too long but I was really waiting for it to be finished 😂

I have 3 cartilage piercings in one ear and the top one took two years to fully heal. It was painful for most of that time, I refused to take it out though. I don’t find tattoos too painful but I have a horse on my lower back and one of the hooves was right on my spine, that did make me grit my teeth a bit as it was a single needle for the outline. I have a tattoo on my wrist and my neck and those were fine.
 
Three holes in one ear, two on the other. Belly button and nose pierced, but both in my teens and now healed up.

One tattoo, got it when I was 18 and don't regret it but wouldn't have another.
 
I have three in each ear (two of which I did myself in lockdown last year) and my nose.

I used to have my lip and septum done but took them out. I also used to have dermal anchors in my cleavage.

I also have my belly done but since keyhole surgery it’s too painful to wear with clothes.

I’m going to get my first tattoo for my birthday, two paw prints on my ankle to remember my boy we lost in October.
 
I have 5 piercings - medusa, vertical labret, standard ears and both nostrils. And 2 retired piercings - nipples and sternum
And 6 tattoos, definitely want more! I have so many planned but pandemic/money means I haven't been able to. I was never really an ear piercing person but recently I've been wanting to get some more on my ears

My foot was the worst.. or, the armpit, behind the knee — for tattoos.

I haven’t had my ribs done. And I don’t really find piercings too painful, although I get SO nervous having a piercing 🤷🏼‍♀️😂
