Laser Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is the most recommended procedure to get rid of your stick and poke tattoo. It is the safest, fastest, most effective, and most reliable procedure.

When you have a stick-and-poke tattoo made by unprofessional people. What happens is that the tattoo involves inserting ink particles via a needle into different depths of your skin.
Initially, laser light shatters the ink particles that are present on the surface of the skin. To remove the ink particles that have penetrated deep into your skin, you may need multiple sessions of laser.
Similarly, people who have dark and bold stick-and-poke tattoos also require multiple laser sessions.
Laser tattoo removal is a bit painful and expensive. But it is generally the most reliable and fastest option.
Tattoo Removal Creams
So, tattoo removal creams do not completely remove the tattoo from your skin. The creams help to reduce the intensity of the ink based on the ingredients of the cream.
A tattoo removal cream tends to recolor the area of your tattoo. The cream makes the tattoo less visible after a while.
How does tattoo removal cream work?
The cream beaches and strips off the outermost layer of your skin (the epidermis).
The main ingredients of tattoo removal cream are
- Hydroquinone
- Trichloroacetic acid aka TCA
Hydroquinone is an organic compound. It acts as a bleaching agent and reduces the darkness of the tattoo. Trichloroacetic acid functions by removing the epidermis. It allows the bleaching agent to penetrate deeply into your skin.
The removal of stick and poke tattoos by cream is a slow and long process. Apply the cream to the designated area according to the recommendation of your expert.
The effectiveness of this method is limited and results can vary. Be cautious when using these products.
Dermabrasion
Dermabrasion, as the name indicates abrasion of your derm (skin). It is done by using a particular equipment rotary tool to “sand” away the outer layer of your tattooed skin. A dermatologist or plastic surgeon performs this procedure.
The procedure is painful and there are chances of scarring. Although this procedure is cheaper than laser and surgery, it is less effective.
Salabrasion of Tattoos
This is a method of removing tattoos from the skin in which moist gauze pads saturated with sodium chloride (salt) are used. This method is used to remove tattoos from the skin by rubbing.
Like Dermabrasion, salabrasion is also painful. A study was conducted on the effects of tattoo removal and results after salabrasion. The result shows that salabrasion can result in wrinkling of the skin. Even after repeated salabrasion, it does not cause scar formation.
Honey and Aloe Vera
While we all know the benefits of honey and aloe vera for the skin. They are used to reduce age spots. They can also help you in removing stick and poke tattoos from your skin.
You can apply them in the form of a mixture or separately at your convenience.
If you are looking for a painless method to fade your stick and poke tattoo at home: Honey and aloe vera should be your number one choice.
Apply them at least four times a day consistently to get effective results.
Lemon Juice
Lemon is citrus and has the properties of a bleaching agent. As a natural bleaching agent, lemon can help you fade your stick and poke tattoos. It is also a painless, easy method. But it tests your patience because it takes a longer time to work.
How to apply lemon juice to the skin?

- Transfer it to the tattooed area with a cotton swab or cloth
- Leave it on the skin. Until it dries.
- Repeat the process three to four times daily with consistency.
