There have been all sorts of homebrew methods suggested over the years for the removal of tattoos, but the simple fact is that it can’t be done without laser treatment or seriously hurting yourself.
If you have a tattoo that you want to have removed, you need to speak to a trained professional.
You risk seriously injuring yourself otherwise.
Can milk remove tattoos?
There are a few testimonials and anecdotes from people who have claimed that they’ve used milk in some form to get rid of tattoos.
Goat’s milk, simply store bought, has been something people have asked about.
Condensed milk is the more common homebrew solution, but it isn’t simply to be poured over the tattooed area.
You are supposed to draw condensed milk over your tattoo at least three times, and this will effectively block it from view.
This is a very painful method, to say the least, not to mention entirely unreliable.
This is the only realistic way milk could remove tattoos.
You would need a needle and to essentially reapply the entire tattoo yourself several times.
While it may be cheaper than going for a laser removal, it simply isn’t worth it.
It probably won’t work, and it will hurt immensely.
We do not recommend using this method to remove tattoos.
The broader, overarching misconception is that milk in general has some properties which help to remove tattoos.
Again, there is no evidence to support this or reason to believe it beyond anecdotal evidence.
Pouring uncondensed milk over the area will not remove it and can, in some cases, even be beneficial to the tattoo.
Is goat’s milk good for tattoos?
I think the important thing to note is that pouring store bought milk over your tattoo really is unlikely to help or hinder it in any way.
You’re just going to smell of milk.
However, goat’s milk is actually used as an ingredient in some body lotions which tattoo artists recommend for healing and moisturizing tattoos.
Goat’s milk, when properly used, has natural anti-aging qualities which can help diminish wrinkling and discoloration on the skin.
It’s also packed with fatty acids, vitamins A and B and minerals like potassium and zinc.
When properly formulated in skin care products as it has been, goat’s milk does have a number of qualities which make it a fantastic skincare product and, by extension, very good for tattoos.
Skincare is a sensitive thing, and the important thing is that you find a product that works for you and matches your skin.
A few products that come highly recommended as tattoo lotions contain goat’s milk, and they could be great for you.
There could be something that suits you better, though, so try a few different products.
How can I remove my permanent tattoo at home without laser?
The simple answer is that if you’re being safe and smart, you can’t remove your tattoo at home.
Laser treatment is the only truly reliable method for permanently removing the tattoo.
Laser treatment can pose some risks to certain people, so there are legitimate reasons to be hesitant of laser removal.
There are alternatives, at least to fully removing it.
You can cover your tattoo up with makeup, a temporary solution but certainly a better option than most home removal methods.
If you are hesitant about laser treatment, you could use makeup to cover up your tattoo until you think you’re comfortable.
There are some very long term, time consuming and expensive ways of removing tattoos at home, using products you have to reapply again and again over months or even years.
There are a number of products which claim to remove tattoos at home, but you would just have to try them.
None are certain to do the job.
A number of other homebrew methods include salt and lemon juice, honey, or over exfoliation. If you are extremely hesitant about laser removal, these methods are all harmless and can be worth a try.
Again, there is no guarantee, and over exfoliation is bad for your skin and will hurt a lot.
Think carefully about what you’re doing if you’re thinking of trying to remove a tattoo at home.
If you are in the position that you want to remove a tattoo, there is no way around the fact that laser removal is the only safe, reliable method for doing so.
There isn’t any sure way of doing it at home without hurting yourself, and goat’s milk is definitely no different.
If anything, goat’s milk will only moisturize the area and make it look better.
For the best and safest results, find a reputable local laser removal service.
