Why pay for a tattoo, and then pay later to have it removed? This is a question I asked when I first wrote on the tattoo industry 10 years ago . As my research uncovered, while tattooing has a long history among certain groups, the practice has become popular among a growing segment of the population, which has underpinned an extensive market for tattoo removal. Since then, the tattoo removal market has undergone further expansion, albeit disrupted during the first few years of COVID-19  as tattoo parlours, clinics and hospitals closed due to lockdowns.
