Yes, homemade tattoos are among the easiest tattoos to remove. Here at New Look Laser Tattoo Removal, every day we see homemade tattoos in a variety of forms. Some of them are simple – dots, lines, or shapes. Many are more complex – names, faces, large designs. All of them have one element in common: they are easier to remove than professionally-crafted tattoos because they traditionally are made of ink or pigment that can be broken down and flushed out of the body with ease.
India ink is the most common pigment used in homemade tattoo, with ash created from the burning of a different substance being the second most common. Whether these tattoos are applied with a professional tattoo gun, a homemade electric-motor based gun, or from something as basic as a ballpoint pen, they carry with them risks in the form of spreading infection from unsterilized needles.
