Tattoos are now commonplace in Australia and tattoo regret is also increasingly common.
The tattoo removal market in Australia has almost tripled in recent years. It is projected to reach $3.04 million by 2026 – that's up from its $1.14 million value in 2018 according to Allied Market Research.
So, why are more and more Aussies choosing to remove once-permanent body art?
