Revenue for tattoo removals has surged 440% to an estimated $75.5 million over the last decade. The tattoo removal industry is still growing and expected to hit $83.2 million over the next four years, keeping pace with growth in the overall tattoo industry, according to research firm IBISWorld. Revenue for the industry overall is estimated to be $3.4 billion in 2014, an annualized growth rate of just 2.9%, though there is strong demand for tattoos with intricate designs.  The two biggest reasons for tatoo removal?  Breakups and job hunting.
