While many believe tattoos are a permanent decision, that isn’t fully the case, as tattoo removals become more common in recent years.
With the use of Q-switched lasers, which break down the ink by identifying its contrast against a person’s skin tone, tattoo removals have become far more commonplace and accurate.
While it typically takes several sessions of Q-switched laser treatment to have the tattoo fully removed from one's body, the end results are usually quite astounding. However, before you get to that point, the area where your tattoo is getting removed could look a bit peculiar while you undergo what can amount to weeks and months of treatment.

Recently, one man has gone viral for a short video of him having his face tattoos removed via this laser treatment, with many being left amazed by both the technology and the man’s decisions.
The video, uploaded by @shivaservat on Instagram, shows that the man’s face was completely covered in tattoos, with minimal space left available prior to having them removed. While little is known about the man, many have pointed out that the decision to get so many tattoos on his face was unwise, as it generally can make living a normal life far more difficult.
“I cannot imagine going ‘oops’ for a full face tat. Wild,” said one commenter.
Others had similar critical sentiments: “I guess he finally wanted a job not at a Halloween theme park.”

“Don't make permanent decisions based on temporary mood swings,” another commenter proclaimed.
Others wondered what the man would look like following his first session of tattoo removal, as his face would still be showing the effects of the treatment in the following weeks.
One commenter joked, “He finna look like Deadpool,” in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that has amassed over 74,000 likes in less than a day.
Despite many being very critical and dumbfounded by the man’s decisions, as the common belief is that both the man’s tattoos and subsequent tattoo removals would cost a near fortune, others were more forgiving and generally accepting of the man’s choice.

“Everyone hating on the guy for getting tattoos in the first place. He got him because he wanted to and he’s getting them removed because he wanted to,” one commenter defended.
“No need to be so negative.”
Another, while being generally against tattoos in general, expressed praise for the man’s decision to get them removed.
“Good for him removing the tattoo, people are destroying their beautiful skin doing these face, neck or body tattoos,” the commenter said.
