A Natural Non-Invasive Method to Remove Unwanted Tattoos

The removal of a tattoo has been tried using clay, calcium bentonite clay to be precise. Calcium bentonite clay is natural occurring 'earth' found in a limited number of locations around the world. The use of calcium bentonite clay has been known for its 'detox' abilities by many indigenous populations around the world. It is only recently been gaining popularity in the modern world.

Calcium bentonite clay has natural negative charged ionic molecules whereas most substances, including tattoo ink, have positive charged ionic molecules. The clay literally attracts positive charged ink and holds it (adsorption) as well as drawing the ink molecules inside the clay molecules (absorption). This amazing double bout process works with astonishing efficacy.

To apply the clay couldn't be simpler...

    Create some hydrated clay either by mixing 1 part clay powder with 3 parts water (preferably filtered) or using clay mask straight from its tub.

    Spread a layer of hydrated clay over the tattoo to be removed. Leave the clay to harden and do its job of absorbing (and adsorbing) the tattoo ink. One hour should be long enough, unless the clay hasn't hardened.

    Then wash off the dry clay but do not rub or brush the area, just wash by lightly sweeping you hand over the area and dry softly with a towel.

    Repeat this for at least four times a day, with the last time left overnight. Don't add anything else to the mixture or anything else to the treatment, like a bandage wrap for instance. The hardened clay will fall off but it should be easily cleaned up with a vacuum cleaner.

    Depending upon the tattoo this daily routine should be repeated for three months. Over that time after the clay absorbs (and adsorbs) the ink out of your skin, the tattoo should fade then disappear. If the tattoo hasn't disappeared, then stop the treatment for a month and then undertake another three month cycle of treatments.

    The colors, size and age of the tattoo in addition to your skin type will all have a bearing on the rate at which the tattoo disappears. A multicolored tattoo will take longer to disappear than a black-ink only tattoo. Also the color green is the most difficult to remove.

This method is never as immediate as laser removal procedures but this is a simple and in-expensive approach that can be done in the comfort and privacy of your own home without visiting the laser treatment clinic.

Remember this treatment is not the same as applying abrasive exfoliation creams. Tattoo removal creams break down the pigments in the skin (both inked and natural). Clay is supporting the skin by attracting the tattoo ink to the surface and on to (and into) the clay. Effectively your own skin is doing the work in a natural less oppressive manner.

What to Expect From Laser Tattoo Removal

Laser tattoo removal is one of the best options for removing tattoos you do not want to have any longer. If you made a bad decision years ago after a night out on the town or had a change of heart, it is possible to remove most of the ink from your skin. However, doing so is not easy. Older methods are painful, and they can take months to complete. Even then, you may still have marks. However, some specialists now offer lasers as a treatment option. You may find that this is one of the best options available.

Are You Sure You Want It Gone?

Life changes rapidly. You may not want the name of a former love on your chest. You may have changed your mind about the art you just had to have. Laser tattoo removal is the best method for getting rid of that unwanted tattoo for good. It may a time-consuming process, but the results are there.

Why Lasers Work Best

Although you can find painful kits to use for removal, most will only lighten the color rather than remove it. Lasers, on the other hand, will actually work to remove the skin cells that have the pigmentation. This is done in a way that will not feel like your skin is peeling off. A professional will be able to carefully remove the image. You will not have to be reminded of a mistake you made in the past.

What to Expect

It may be necessary to have more than one treatment to fully remove the image. This is often the case with tattoos that have dark colors. It is impossible to remove some tattoos due to the type of pigment they used. You may have redness and some discomfort during the process. Larger images may take more than one treatment to complete the removal process. Afterwards, the skin may look discolored or like a sunburn. This may heal well, or it may leave some marks. Though the actual image will be gone, you may still have some discoloration of the skin in that area. You will have to decide if having an area of discoloration instead of a tattoo if preferable to you.

You can take back your skin. Forget all about that bad relationship or bad decision. Laser tattoo removal is not only effective, but it is safe and easy to have when you work with a professional.
