I was referring to owning the biz and hiring the Indian doctors to do it for dirt cheap. Get them H1Bs into the US and pay em 20K each.

You have to have a degree in dermatology to run such business, which means 4 to 5 years of med school.

Probably, the technology for that has gotten really advanced and cool from what I have heard. Something about lasers that take out one color at a time but don't leave any scars.

MattO · 07-13-2004, 09:06 PM

Some inks nowadays have plastics in them that when hit with one of them lasers just burn and melt. Not nice.

No scars? No shit!?

down side of the latest laser removal is that you have to go so many freaking times to get rid of it, especially if lots of colors. And I HAVE seen some scars from the latest laser method, it will make ugly scars, if you do it, go into with the 50/50 attitude....FYI

i have heard that getting a tatto removed is like taking very gritty sandpaper and rubbing it violently on the surface of your skin

sounds appeasing

MetaMan · 07-14-2004, 05:26 AM

Basic_man · 07-14-2004, 05:30 AM

Doesn't sound that different from getting one.

I'm amused by the tattooing and tattoo removal business. I saw an actual booth setup at this year's Erotica L.A. where customers could get tattoos done. Not to be outdone, there was actually a booth that promoted laser tattoo removal at Adultcon 3 a few years back.

Yes, you can see that the tattoos have been removed in many cases (they may not show up until photographed

).

Yes, I have one. Took almost 8 hours to make, and it does hurt like hell.
