Question by barnumm2: What tattoo removal creams work?
I have a black tribal tattoo and want it off. But I am in college and can’t afford laser removal. I have heard too many mixed reviews on tattoo removal creams. I would just like to know which ones work.

wrecking balm is the only one I know of that works well.
realistically, they do not work. the best thing is laser removal
you can ask yoour dermatologist
Removal creams do not work. If they did it laser removal would not be as widely used nor as expensive as it is.
An analogy I like to use is that if all the crap on TV infomercials was 1/2 what they claim it to be, it would be sold in every store on the planet!
In my opinion. Save your pennies and once your out of college and making money then get the tattoo removed. There are also clinics in certain parts of the states that do free/low cost removal for gang affiliate tattoos.
I hope that helps!

I tried tat-be-gone for about 6 months religiously and it is a waste of money. The tat faded a little bit, but that’s about it. Just live with it or wait until you can afford laser removal.
No such thing/ save up money and then get the lazer procedure.
Good Luck.
Creams do not work. I am a tattoo artist and I know 100% they do not work. I have had to do many cover ups for people who regret tattoos. My advice would be either to suck it up and live with the decision you made, or save up for laser removal. But beware, the laser removal is A LOT more painful than the actual tattoo.
