Ribcage, spine, elbows, and knees are among the most painful areas to get tattooed. Pain levels vary by individual, but areas with thin skin and little fat tend to hurt more. Our artists at Hardwork Tattoos will walk you through pain expectations based on placement.

The worst spots are generally those over bone or nerve-dense areas like the ribs, spine, or ankles. Pain perception differs, but these areas tend to cause more discomfort. Let us know your pain tolerance, and we can guide you to a more comfortable placement.

Yes, most old or bad tattoos can be fixed by reworking the existing design, covering it with a new one, or fading it through laser sessions. A rework sharpens faded lines and refreshes details when you still like the concept, while a cover-up creates a completely new design that hides the old ink when the tattoo has major flaws. Laser fading lightens stubborn or dark areas to make space for better cover-up options. The right method depends on how the tattoo looks now, the colors used, the size of the piece, and the final style you want.

A tattoo cover-up typically needs 3 to 8 laser fading sessions, with most tattoos reaching good cover-up readiness in around 3 to 5 sessions. Dark, saturated, or large tattoos usually need more fading, while older or lighter tattoos may need fewer. Full removal takes 8 to 15 sessions, which is more than what a standard cover-up requires, so fading is often faster and more cost-efficient. Your tattoo artist and laser technician can judge how much fading is necessary based on your new design’s size, detail, and color palette.

Tattoo aftercare keeps the skin clean, protected, and moisturized to support healing and maintain the quality of the artwork. The process starts with removing the bandage within the time your artist recommends, gently washing the area with mild soap, and patting it dry with a clean paper towel. Consistent care continues with applying a thin layer of moisturizer, washing the tattoo a few times a day, avoiding scratching, sun exposure, sweating, or soaking the area, and wearing loose clothing to prevent irritation. Long-term care involves keeping the skin hydrated and using high-SPF sunscreen to reduce fading and preserve the tattoo’s vibrancy.
