Small Tattoo Designs Mean Much

Who says that small tattoo designs don't mean a thing? It is true that a small tattoo can be easily covered, and many employers don't really mind a discrete tattooing, but the messages hidden in a little symbol can mean much for its bearer.

A small tattoo design can be cute, sexy and meaningful. The design may be not so elaborate as with large tattoos, but the message, sometimes subtle, sometimes obvious, will not be less significant. Such a tattooing is even more challenging for the designers who need to find the best way to depict on a tiny piece of skin the very essence of an idea, the power of a hidden thought and the fundamental nature of the individual who opts for a small tat.

Tiny Celtic tattoos, such as the already famous knots, have classy designs as expressive as elaborated tattoos. Some knot tattoos are used as a talisman: circles stand for unity, eternity and love, spirals for cycles of life and reincarnation and squares are shields against evil forces. Many people feel that small tattoos are more meaningful due to their discrete and private traits.

Tattoos are generally permanent, but if a bearer decides to have a tattoo removed, a small one will not raise so many problems as a large one. Even so, it is almost impossible to remove a tattoo, even the smallest one, without leaving a scar or skin discoloration. If laser surgery is the most popular tattoo removal technique and has the less scaring and infection risks, it is yet the most expensive option and requires 4 to 5 visits for the removal of a small tattoo. The excision removes the tattooed skin portion with a scalpel and leaves obvious scars, the dermabrasion and salabrasion are painful and leave severe rug burns, textural scaring and skin discoloration.

Small or large – it is up to you, but choose your tattoo design carefully.
