yes, it hurts, doesn't just about anything after it's cut.  I say if it wasn't done too you when you were too young to have a choice, don't do it now.  It is just another barbaric practice, that has no medical benefit that we victimize our fellow humans with, akin to docking puppy tails and cropping their ears just for aesthetics.  There is just no justified reason to maim yourself in this way and people are starting to educate themselves in this direction.

Go to the dermantoligist. They have machines that can just zap them away. This may sound perfect but there is a downside it hurts and its very expensive.

I agree with people who have suggested seeing a doctor to have them frozen off.\n\nI had two under my armpits which I shaved off with a razor, it burned a little but not much and they haven't come back. The ones on your armpit you could probably do on your own. However, I had one of the back of my neck that I also cut off with scissors and it hurt terribly. I do NOT recommend cutting off the ones on you abs and neck on your own unless you have a very high pain tolerance. You also might cause yourself scars. (I didn't care about scars when I did mine because it's in an area my hair covers.)

Yes, I have them done, Yes it hurts.  When the needle passes through the skin, it sends an intense flash of heat down the entire side of your body.  It takes a couple of months for them to heal and they are extremely sensitive to anything during that time.  If you are a belly sleeper, find a different position.  As far as women not being able to breastfeed that is just pure bull.  I am a mother of 2 and breast fed both of my children.  Good luck with it.  It does take a lot of nerve.  My first set got infected and I had to take them out and have them repierced so I have been through it twice.  My recommendation is to have them measure your nipples and pierce with a barbell.  Once they heal you can insert rings.  This worked perfectly for me on my second go 'round.

It rips through your skin and it is painful in some areas while in others it is just very uncomfortable.  But if you really like tattoos and you want one that bad it is worth every minute of excruciating pain you go through.

Possibly birthmarks but you should have a doctor check them out.

I just recently got my first tattoo (about 3 weeks ago).  It is the ancient runes symbol for my zodiac sign (Leo) on my right shoulder.  I was scared as hell going into it, but it seriously did not hurt as much as people told me it would!  The little bit of pain I had felt like a bad sunburn and it only lasted a few mintues during the whole procedure.  However, it totally depends on the body part you are getting the tattoo on and your level of pain tolerance.  I think getting the fillings in my teeth hurt worse than getting my tattoo.

It's messy and painful but you can remove a wart with any household knife.  I do suggest getting something to freeze it and remove it...

i understand how you feel as I too hate injections. I have had 3 moles removed and it was quite pain free. My doctor sprayed the area he was going to inject and I never even felt the needle. After that I was home free as for me too the injection is the worst part. Rest assured its not anywhere as bad as you think it is. good luck

A friend of mine had her bikini area done and she said it worked well.  You have to go about 5 times over the course of a year.  It feels like having sunburn but they give you a cream to soothe the pain.  Also, some areas have higher success rates than others.  The tech told my friend that leg hair is really hard to remove successfully.

I have had this test. It is more uncomfortable than painful. I think it is an important test to check and see that everything is as it should be.  It was a few years ago that I had it done, it never left any traumatising memories...so from what I remember its not so bad. Just prepare yourself for discomfort, and it helps to have someone along that you can recieve comfort from. I had my sister with me.Sorry if I couldn't help more.

Sorry, a tattoo is permanent.  The only way to have it removed is via laser surgery which is costly and not paid for by insurance.\n\nThere is an alternative though.  Buy some dermablend makeup.  It will easily cover it.  Dermablend is specifically made to cover birthmarks...particularly port wine stain...so it provides great coverage and looks natural.

I have gotten one removed by laser. Make sure they numb up the area. It is painful if they don't. It takes 5 or 6 times going in depending on the size/color of the tatoo. You have to wait a month between each session. For two weeks after a treatment you can't let the area get in the sun. The area is tender for about a week and gets discolored.  You apply antibiotic ointment. If you have any green in your tattoo, that is the hardest color to remove for some reason. The one I got removed you can still faintly see some green if you look hard. You can have permanent "light" area where your tatoo was depending on your skin tone.

I'd think about it twice (at least) if I were you. Sure, you want it now, but in 10 years? It's not gonna look pretty, you'll quite possibly get tired of it, it's expensive to remove.. Besides; it's painful to get it done in the first place.
