What Is a Tattoo Cover-Up?

A tattoo cover-up is the process of applying a new design over an existing tattoo to disguise or completely replace it. This involves smart design choices, color blending, and strategic placement to ensure the original ink disappears seamlessly into the new one.

Unlike tattoo removal, which takes multiple painful sessions, cover-ups are faster, more affordable, and often result in a stunning new piece you’ll be proud to show off.
