No, l dont have any body art or piercings myself, other than the usual ear piercings for a pair of pretty earings, which l had done when l was 15. As Nurse, l worked a stint in the local skin graft clinic of our NHS hospital, and one of the consultants there used to remove Tatooes by shaving off the layer of inked skin in the same way as skin was harvested for a skin graft, it was the only way to get rid of the inking. This did leave some nasty scars and was very sore whilst it healed. What a lot of people dont realise is that their designs and expensive intricate pictures they choose to adorn their bodies with, will one day become a wrinkled blurr as their skin ages and looses its elasticity in later years, they are then stuck with this mess for good, especially with things like full sleeve art that is simply far to larger area of skin to remove safely.
