Tattoo Cover-up in Vienna: new life for your old motif

An old tattoo you no longer like? A cover-up or rework turns it into something you'll happily show off again. At INTO Tattoo Studio in Vienna we look at your existing motif and figure out together what's possible: sometimes it can be refreshed, sometimes built into a larger, new design. Come by for a free consultation, show us your tattoo, and together we'll find the best route. Get in touch or simply drop by and give your tattoo a second chance.

What's really possible with your cover-up

A good cover-up takes experience. Our artists look closely at what can be covered or redesigned, and won't promise you anything that won't work in the end. Dark, older tattoos especially can set limits. If something can't be done the way you pictured it, we'll tell you openly and look for another solution together. In our artists' portfolios you can browse their work and see who best suits your tattoo. The consultation is free, and a free touch-up once it's healed is included.

What can be made of your old tattoo?

An old tattoo goes everywhere with you, but you no longer feel good about it. Maybe you're thinking: can this even be saved? Won't the new motif just be a dark patch? Does it have to be huge to work? And will there be a solution you actually like? These are exactly the questions we sort out with you before we begin. We take a close look at your old motif and tell you honestly what's possible.

How we turn old into new again

It all starts with a free consultation where we take a close look at your old tattoo. We'll tell you honestly what can be reworked well and what's better built into a larger motif, rather than promising you something that won't work in the end. If it all fits, we develop a new design that makes sense of your old motif and carry it out carefully and with strict hygiene. And here too: a free touch-up once it's healed is included.
