Megan Fox has removed the tattoo of Marilyn Monroe on her arm
Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, Peter Andre and Eva Longoria have all recently had tattoos removed and it seems that it's another trend that we are all copying.
The Harley Medical Group have reported that bookings for the removal of tattoo scars have risen by 30 per cent, making the treatment almost as popular at Botox.
The removal of tattoo scars is treated using the FDA approved laser treatment, exclusive to The Harley Medical Group, which is proven to reduce the appearance of scarring by up to 75 per cent.
With such a significant increase increase in bookings for tattoo scar removal, the treatment has been dubbed the 'Ta-Ta-Tattoo' by staff across the Group's 31 clinics.
Lisa Littlehales, lead nurse counsellor at The Harley Medical Group, says: "The most common reasons for the removal of tattoos, is a new phase in life such as a change in relationship, or a new job, as seen with tattoo removal on celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox and Eva Longoria.
"The removal process can often result in scarring, leaving the memory of the tattoo visible and so defeating the point of the removal for the patient.
"With a recommended course of four, the treatment uses fractional laser technology to break down scar tissue and generate new healthy tissue. The result permanently reduces the appearance of the scar, by producing smoother, more even skin that is lighter in colour."

Jenny Taylor, patient, says: "I had a tattoo when I was younger that I loved, but 20 years later it just wasn't 'me' anymore and I was really keen to get it removed. After having the tattoo removed, I was left with a scar whch meant that I still had a mark on my body that I didn't want.
"After having laser treatment at The Harley Medical Group, I'm really pleased with the results - the scarring has almost completely disappeared and I can now move on with a new phase in my life, without my tattoo, or any memory of it.
