Cover-Up Tattoo in Istanbul

A cover-up places a new design over an existing tattoo so the old one disappears completely. Planned well, nobody will ever see what was underneath.

How we do it

1. We assess the colour, darkness and size of the old tattoo; a photo on WhatsApp is enough.
2. We design so that dark, textured areas sit over the old lines. Flowers, animals, mandalas, black and grey and colour realism work very well.
3. The cover-up is usually a little larger than the original.

Very dark tattoos may need a few laser lightening sessions first.
