There are many reasons for wanting a cover up tattoo. Maybe you feel your tattoo no longer resonates with who you are today, or maybe your canvas is full.
Whatever your reasons for getting a cover up, Legacy Tattoo Removal can help you in your tattoo transformation goals.
What is a Tattoo Cover Up?
Tattoo cover ups are exactly what they sound like: a tattoo artist designs a new tattoo to cover up an existing one.
Sometimes particular sections or colours of the original tattoo present challenges for your artist to cover up. That’s where we can help.

Tattoo Fading
Depending on your tattoo, fading a tattoo (or tattoo lightening) is an important step in your tattoo transformation journey. Dark or intricate designs that might have once posed challenges become opportunities for creativity upon fading or removal, resulting in a cover up that seamlessly integrates with your vision.
Our collaborative approach involves a close partnership between us and your tattoo artist. With input from your artist, we target specific colours or sections of your old tattoo that might pose challenges for the tattoo cover up. By working together, we can reduce the number of sessions required, allowing for greater creative freedom in your future tattoo designs.
Less Sessions = More Space for Creativity
One of the key benefits of our collaborative process is that we can target exact parts of the original tattoo that are standing in the way of your perfect tattoo cover up – ultimately minimizing the number of laser treatments. This gets you under your tattoo artist’s machine sooner and that much closer to your new tattoo.
