Tattoo removal creams are a hit or miss. Feel free to try them out. But if they don’t work, you only have yourself to blame. There is no scientific study proving their effectiveness, just ad copy that presents amazing before & after photos. If you have ever used photoshop before, you know that it’s pretty damn easy to remove a tattoo from a photo. There are also a lot of “reviews” for these creams that are just sales pages in disguise.  Fact is, if you want your tattoo removed, you’re going to have to pay up and get a laser or intense pulse light therapy removal. Although you can end up paying as much as $10,000 to get your tattoo removed, it is known to get you results. If you use a tattoo removal cream and use it for 6 months, there’s a good chance that at the end of those 6 months you are going to be wondering why you just didn’t pay for a laser removal in the first place. And it’s not like you have to pay for the cost to remove it right away. You can get financing from companies such as Care Credit. Furthermore, because laser and intense light pulse therapy can take 6 months to see the final results, you’re going to be paying in chunks here and there. You should also consider getting a loan from your bank. This can be in the form of a traditional loan, a home equity line of credit, home equity loan, or a cash out refinance. You can also use a credit card to pay off the tattoo removal. If you do use plastic, be smart about it so that you don’t end up in debt.

Many people look for tattoo removal creams because the prices associated with laser tattoo removal scare them away. Did you know that you can get a laser tattoo removal for free? There are a lot of dermatologists out there that will give you a laser tattoo removal in exchange for community service. By volunteering somewhere over the weekends you can feel good about yourself and get your tattoo removed in the process. Do a search for “tattoo removal” in your area. Then call each place to find out if they would allow you to pay for the removal by getting involved in community service. Although many places will say no, it won’t hurt to ask.

Does a tattoo removal cream work? The short answer is yes, but with minimal effectiveness. It may not work at all for you. Although they advertise themselves as replacements to tattoo laser removal and intense pulse therapy, which are very expensive and can do the job very well, they may fade the tattoo, but not enough to see that much of a difference.

Wrecking Balm

The most popular tattoo removal cream is Wrecking Balm, which claims that its results are “devastatingly effective”. It claims to work by brushing off the top layer of your skin so that new skin cells form, with your tattoo fading in the process. As such Wrecking Balm is not so much a cream as it is a chemical peel. Chemical peels have been acknowledged by some dermatologists to give some results. But what results can you get with Wrecking Balm?

An epinions review said that the cream resulted in minimal fading, but not enough to justify the price. The reviewer recommended this product to those who have small tattoos that are already light in color.

Fox News DC has a video clip on their site. The conclusion they came to is that it doesn’t work. However, because they only tested it on one person, they can’t conclusively say that it doesn’t work at all. After two month’s use, the cream did not work at all. Rather than honoring their 60 day money back guarantee, they told the user featured in the video that it can take 6 months to see any results. After 6 months, there was no visible improvement, but the good news was that Wrecking Balm offered to give the customer her money back.

Various message boards online have said that the results of the Wrecking Balm tattoo removal cream are minimally effective or do not do anything at all.

Bottom line: Although this product may work, you’re likely better off saving your money, time, and energy by getting a professional treatment done in the form of a laser tattoo removal or an intense pulse light therapy removal. Because Wrecking Balm sticks to their money back guarantee, it’s worth trying out if you’re not in a rush to get your tat removed.

Tat B Gone

Tat B Gone is another tattoo removal cream that has some popularity and claims to be a viable alternative to laser tattoo removal. After browsing online for reviews of this product, here are some real testimonials, which will give you a good idea of its effectiveness or lack thereof…
