Tattoos are put on a persons skin with the idea that they will be there forever. Consequently, removing them is not a simple process. Below are some of the most common methods of tattoo removal and the positives and negatives of each procedure.
- Dermabrasion - this is a very painful method and involves sanding away the skin that has been tattooed.
- Cryosurgery - where the tattooed skin is frozen and then removed.
- Excision - a procedure where the doctor removes the area of tattooed skin with a scalpel and then stitches together the skin that remains. This is not a good option on very large tattoos.
- Laser Tattoo Removal- A laser goes through the surface of the skin and breaks down the tattoo ink that is deeper in the skin. When the ink breaks down the body's immune system naturally removes the tattoo dye because it is seen as an impurity in the body. This is actually the same process that occurs naturally that causes tattoos to fade. The laser just speeds up the process.
Of all the tattoo removal methods, laser tattoo removal is the most popular and least painful. It also has the advantage that it can be done on an outpatient basis, which makes it more convenient than some of the other methods.

This will be the first solo show of my work and I must confess feels like a bit of a "Jim'll Fix It" moment! Westbourne Grove Church Artspace is a contemporary exhibition space in the heart of Notting Hill, London. The first time I heard of the space was when Kirsty E. Smith exhibited her show Close Encounters of a Frillip Moolog Kind, I really liked the space and thought it would be suited to my work. There are two tower rooms that have street level windows and a central lobby space. Here are some pictures of the space being used by other artists:
