I have two tattoos I'm so ashamed of now. And they're small ones at that. I got mine due to low self esteem. I'm fat - actually "morbidly obese" (237 pounds, I should weigh 135 pounds) - and have heard all my life how ugly I am. How I'm "a beast" and get messages on MySpace about how I'll never make it as a singer because, even though I'm talented, I'm "too fat and ugly to be an American Idol." So I got two rose tattoos because "I want something about me to be pretty." Now I just want them gone! Count me in as one of the regreters. I have two tattoos I’m so ashamed of now. And they’re small ones at that. I got mine due to low self esteem. I’m fat – actually “morbidly obese” (237 pounds, I should weigh 135 pounds) – and have heard all my life how ugly I am. How I’m “a beast” and get messages on MySpace about how I’ll never make it as a singer because, even though I’m talented, I’m “too fat and ugly to be an American Idol.” So I got two rose tattoos because “I want something about me to be pretty.”

Now I just want them gone!

I have no regrets whatsoever. I have many women friends my age or older who also have tattoos and do not regret them. @Breitling

As I understand it, black tattoos remove easier than other colors. After undergoing treatments, will the skin look as good as new? Is the laser technology continually improving? Thank you so much for such an educational blog. Dr. B,

I can now say with certainty (and relief) that I sure am glad I never got one! Several of my friends got tattoos when we were younger.
