Dire Need of Tattoo Removal

A Belgian teenager seems to be in dire need of tattoo removal, after she fell asleep while getting a tattoo and ended up with 56 tattoos all over her face. The teenager is now suing the tattoo artist who did it to her. The young girl is the ideal candidate for tattoo removal, especially since she has told papers that she is mortified to walk outside her house. News.com.au reported on the tattoo-clad teen, "Kimberley Vlaeminck, 18, was left sporting 56 black stars of various sizes on the left side of her face, from nose to ear and brow to chin. "When he started the tattooing I didn't want to feel the pain and so I went to sleep. I had got up at five in the morning," she said. "I woke up when he was starting to tattoo my nose and I saw what he had already done. I counted 56 stars, it's frightening," she told the Flemish daily Het Laatste Nieuws." She also told reporters she would be undergoing laser tattoo removal to get rid of the 56 stars. The dispute between the teen and the tattoo artist is heating up as well, he claims she was awake the entire time and consented to the facial tattoos.
