New Cream Injections Promise Removal Of Unwanted Tattoos!!!!!!!

Though it's pretty much the formal antithesis of punk rock, there's a
new solution for removing unwanted tattoos: Rejuvi cream is injected
below the skin via tiny needles (in much the same way as tattoo ink is
injected), and causes the ink to come to the skin surface, form a scab,
and then drop off.

Rejuvi is apparently absorbed by the pigmented cells in your skin, and
bonds with the pigment, which softens the ink and pushes it out. The
scab falls off after roughly six to eight weeks. According to the
DailyMail, experts claim the technique is cheaper, less painful, has a
higher success rate than laser treatment, and has a minimal risk of
scarring.

"It is uncomfortable rather than painful but it is less painful than
having the tattoo itself and certainly a lot less painful than having
laser treatment," says Stuart Harrison, director of Oxford Skin Clinics
in the UK. "The reason that a tattoo stays there is that a coating is
put around the ink to protect it from the body's immune response," he
says. "But this cream makes the ink identifiable to the body so that it
realizes the ink is there and starts rejecting it and healing itself."
