We replace your old tattoo with a custom design that fully covers it, starting with a free consultation and honest advice on what works best.
Pricing Guide
Small Text & Symbol Cover-Up
Design & Strategy
- Saturation Assessment: 15-20 minute consultation to analyze old ink depth and determine if a Blackout or Distraction strategy is required.
- Digital Overlay: Custom stenciling using digital tools to layer the new design (Feathers, Om, Mandalas) over the old tattoo photo to verify 100% concealment.
- Flow Adjustment: Freehand marker adjustments on skin to align the design with wrist or neck anatomy.
Execution & Safety
- Session Time: Approximately 45 to 90 minutes of needle work depending on old tattoo density.
- Ink Specification: Application of Triple Black or Ultra-Black lining ink (Dynamic/Panthera) to prevent bleed-through.
- Hygiene Protocol: New sealed cartridge opened in client view, dental bibs, and barrier film usage.
Aftercare
- Protection: Application of cling film wrap or absorbent pad taping.
- Healing Support: Verbal instructions provided to ensure proper healing and prevent scarring.
Black & Grey Realism Cover-Up
Concept & Composition
- Digital Composite: Creation of a mockup overlaying new imagery (Lions, Samurai, Clocks) on the existing tattoo to demonstrate opacity coverage.
- Anatomy Flow: Strategic placement adjustments to ensure muscle movement in biceps or forearms does not distort the new heavy artwork.
Technical Execution
- Shading Technique: Extensive use of Whip Shading and Packing Black to obliterate old lines using deep contrast and skin-break highlights.
- Duration: 4-6 hour session including breaks for refreshments (Water/Tea/Coffee provided).
- Equipment: Usage of low-noise rotary pen machines and membrane cartridges for long-session comfort.
Post-Procedure
- Touch-up Guarantee: One complimentary touch-up session included within 45 days to address any ink peek-through.
- Healing Kit: Application of petroleum jelly/ointment and specific advice on gym/sweat avoidance.
Premium Color Correction
Artistic Direction
- Color Theory Analysis: Evaluation of fade levels to select canceling palettes (Blues, Purples, Greens) that prevent muddy results.
- Freehand Stenciling: Direct-to-skin drawing for background or floral elements to hide specific dark spots while following body curves.
Premium Inking Process
- Imported Pigments: Usage of high-vibrancy inks (brands like World Famous or Eternal) for maximum longevity and brightness.
- Layering Technique: Multi-pass application to break up old outlines before packing color, requiring higher needle count changes.
- Detailing: Use of Titanium White ink to create highlights and visual pop.
Experience & Aftercare
- Senior Artist Execution: Procedure performed by lead specialists due to the complexity of color correction.
- Advanced Healing: Application of specialized breathable adhesive patch (like Dermalize/Saniderm) or heavy wrapping for 24-hour saturation protection.

About Cover-Up Tattoos
Fresh Start for Old Ink
Purane tattoo se pareshan ho? (Bothered by your old tattoo?) I get it - maybe it’s a faded name, a design that’s just not you anymore, or a reminder you’re ready to move on from. Tension nahi lene ka (Don’t stress). At TattooZone, we look at every unwanted tattoo as a chance for tattoo transformation, not a problem.
How We Work
- Free consultation: You come in, show me what’s bugging you, and we’ll chat about your options. No pressure.
- Custom cover-up tattoo design: I sketch something that fits you and hides what you don’t want to see anymore.
- Ink session: You leave with ekdum naya design (totally new design), something you actually want to flaunt.
What We Can Do
Cover-ups need skill. Most times, the new tattoo is bigger and more detailed than the old one. Options include:
- Vibrant color cover-ups - from feathers to peacocks, we make faded ink pop again.
- Bold black and grey cover-up - think lions, samurais, or dramatic tribal patterns.
- Religious or symbolic pieces, if you want something meaningful.
Real Talk
Every cover-up is a puzzle. The final look depends on your old tattoo’s size and color. I’ll be straight with you - not every design is possible, but we’ll figure out what works best. Soch mat (Don’t overthink), just bring your challenge.

Your story, our needles, let’s make it real.
