Frequently Asked Questions

Can any tattoo be covered?

Most can, but very dark and dense tattoos might need prior laser lightening. The artist will evaluate feasibility.

Does a cover-up need to be much larger than the original?

Yes. Generally, the new tattoo needs to be 2 to 3 times larger than the original to create the necessary visual distractions and hide the dark strokes under the new design.
