Tat B Gone got rid of my tattoo and got me a promotion. Had a celtic cross on my hand that I thought was holding me back. Took almost 8 months but the cross is gone and I made manager. Yes I recommend.

I feel like I have to take the time to warn everyone about Dermasal. I had first heard of the product through a friend. But when I went to the Dermasal-Selmedica web site to place my order, I noticed dermasal described as a Salt Abrasion Complex.

Well I started doing some research and found out a salt abrasion complex is no more than a skin peel! No wonder they said to use less often if you get irritation.

HOW MANY LAYERS OF SKIN DO YOU HAVE TO PAINFULLY PEEL AWAY TO REMOVE THE TATTOO?  

Also, the company that owns Dermasal is known for its BAD business practices. I found this link posted already from the Better Business Bureau:

If you are counting on their guarantee, you may want to check it out.

My experience with Tat B Gone has been great, Rhonda.

Just keep using tat B Gone and it works. I was a little sad after using it for 2 weeks and not seeing any change. But then all of a sudden I noticed it was a little lighter. It takes a little time, but it sure is working for me.

When I was young and stupid I got my boyfriend's names tattooed on the small of my back. My new fiancé totally HATES it, so he bought me Tat B Gone. It is working! I am on my 6th month, and it is hardly noticeable now.

I really have to thank my boyfriend for finding this product. Plus, I think that they are a good company. Even after I got TBG they always answered my emails and questions.

I know how it is to badly want to get rid of a tattoo, so i wish you luck!

-Jane

Bishop are you the sales manager or just the copy writer for Dermasal and selmedica.com? To think you almost had me. When I went to your web site to buy (I really want to get rid of my Celtic) I happened to go find my way to selmedica.com

And what a range of hokey products you sell (How do you live with yourselves):

1 Breast Enlargement pill - yeah ah -hah

2 Penis Enlargement pill-yeah ah -hah

3 Penis Stiffener pill- yeah ah -hah

4 All natural Get Pregnant Now pill - yeah ah -hah

5 The best a pill for vaginal odor - I am still laughing

After finding this out I went back to the Dermasal site and looked hard. It was then I figured out you were selling SALT AND WATER. You want us to believe rubbing salt on a Tattoo will make it go away. Researching salt abrasion I found out it is recommended for Acne. What do acne and tattoo removal have in common?

But what really got me and made me take the time to write this is when I found your posting on the internet. Writing ads and posting them like they are from customers.

HOW STUPID DO YOU THINK WE ARE? YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED!

I have five tats one is a celtic arm band about 2 inches wide and a deep black in color and go's all the way around my arm At the bicep. the other is a black cross with 3 fish in gothic style around the cross,its about 4inches by 3 inches. the other one is a black Eagle about 4 and a half inches by3 inches. and the other two are a small tiger faded out some what and a 911 tribute of a red white and blue sheild w/an Eagle behind it it's about 3 inches by 3 inches. my questions is that. I would like to no what product out there really works because all the before and after pics I see are for 10 weeks 14 weeks adn they do seem to be faded a lot but thers no follow up reports or pics about the final out come do the completly go away or after 14 weeks thats all you get. and if so why do they sell 6 months to a year worth of product if it's only effective for 14 weeks please help me with any and all honest info I would be very greatful. because I'm tired of being ashamed of my tat's I wish Iv'e never got any of them.I don't want to sound like a Bible Thumper but I got religon and now the tat's are really getting to me,everybody keeps telling its not what you look like that counts but whats in you heart and mind. but when I wake up in the moring it's hard not to notice the t

i started using tat b gone a month ago on a particularly nasty tattoo i got while still at school,i dont know if im imagining it but some of the lines have started to look fuzzy,i know not to get my hopes up but its looking promising.i know itll take at least 6 months to go .it cost a lot of money but a hell of a lot less than laser removal would so i reckon its worth a try.ill post back when ive finished my 6 month supply with pics.heres hoping...

I bought Derma that is supposed to be guaranteed. Well I still have my tattoo and one huge skin reaction but no money back. I guess I am out the money, I was warned on those web sites. But I am MAD.

I guess this is more of a question rather than an answer... I am very interested in getting my tattoo removed... and right now laser removal is just too expensive.  I am writing because I never heard of removing a tattoo by this lotion stuff... and I was looking around and came across that tatbgone and dermasal stuff and althought it may be cheaper than laser.. its not cheap itself...  so would u recommend tatbgone or dermasal? and do u know of any other way to purchase these products other then by internet?  Like is there a store that I could find these products in?  Also, since the websites only show pictures of the tattoo after 6 months were some of them are not fully gone yet... do you just continue using the product until they are completely gone?  Also, has anyone had any problems with tat b gone? Also what is the active ingredient in tat b gone?  Thank you very much.. sorry that my one question turned into like 5... but thanks

I have been using Tat B Gone for months. At first I was a skeptic and so afraid when I finally bought some. Had great luck on a cross. I just kept putting it on till the cross was gone-about 10 months. Good luck

i recently bought dermasl and in 2 weeks am noticing fading, i also am having my tatto "dry inked" out and using dermasal after it.if you want to remove a tatto try to reverse the process...it's like getting a tattoo, only instead of ink use peroxide and then salt water or dermasal.that tattoo will come off quicker then creams and less painful then laser and even less scarring!i have 18 tattoos and will spend the money to get these horrible mistakes off my body!!!

kristen, I do not know how your skin keeps from getting red and inflamed with Dermasal. I mean that stuff really tore my skin apart. It is some kind of oily salt rub that just caused my skin to bleed.
After my bad luck with dermasal - and I did NOT get my money back - I tried Tattoo-OFF. They say it is for sensitive skin. I am not sure what that means but it does not rip my skin apart, and I do see some fading.

I have had 3 Lazer treatments at $600 a pop.
Even though there has been a noticable amount of fading, it was very painful. I actually had blisters the size of grapes hanging off of my arm.  I believe I'm going to try "Tat B Gone", it has very positive ratings.  Check out the Tattoo Removal Institute web site, they did there own trial tests and list it as the number one product along with "Tattoo Off" listed as the number two product only because it was gentler on the skin and it took a little longer for desired results.
Anyone know about the surrounding skin, I have letters and I am wondering how to apply the creams.  Thanks
