Why choose this planner
Tattoo cover up planning starts with what has to stay.
The planner keeps the original ink visible in the calculation, so you can discuss scale, dark structure, and risk with an artist before committing to a direction.

Tattoo cover up guide
What a tattoo cover up needs to work in real life.
A tattoo cover up does not remove the old tattoo. It puts a new composition over permanent ink, which is why size, placement, contrast, and dark structure matter more than a single attractive reference image. A small, light design can look good on a screen and still leave the old lines readable on skin.
Start with a clear photo that includes the full tattoo and nearby skin. Then decide what you can accept: a larger silhouette, more black and grey, a change in subject, or a design that reuses part of the original shape. The tattoo cover up generator turns those choices into a planning direction, not a tattoo-ready stencil.
Use the preview to compare the new direction against the original tattoo, then read the risk map before booking. An experienced cover-up artist still makes the final call on pigment, scars, healed skin, placement, and the size needed for a lasting result.
Before choosing tattoo cover up ideas
The questions worth answering before you choose a design.
What must the new tattoo cover?
Look at every old line and dark patch, not only the part you dislike most. A successful tattoo cover up needs enough dark structure over the original marks that would otherwise stay readable. The larger the old tattoo spreads, the more the new composition usually needs to connect those areas.
How much can the new design change?
Some people want a full cover up; others want to keep a symbol, a name, or the placement of the existing tattoo. That choice changes the design direction. A full replacement can use broader shapes and darker mass, while a rework must negotiate with more of the original structure.
What can a digital preview tell you?
A preview is useful for testing subject, placement, scale, and dark-to-light balance. It cannot promise how ink will settle in healed skin or replace an artist’s assessment. Use it to arrive at the appointment with a better brief, not with a finished tattoo to copy.
Is this a tattoo cover up app?
Yes. This is a browser-based tattoo cover up app. You can upload a photo, check the old ink and design area, preview a direction, and save the result without installing a phone app.
Open the cover up plannerCan I generate a cover-up for free?
Generation is paid from the first use. You can browse examples, choose a photo, then sign in to analyze and configure it before buying. The $6.99 pack includes 24 credits for 6 cover-up generations. Existing credits remain available under their original terms.
If you need more runs, credit packs are one-time purchases with no subscription. The preview is a planning aid for an artist, not a promise that the design will work on healed skin.

Before you trust a preview
Can a tattoo cover up hide any old tattoo?+
No. A tattoo cover up can be limited by old ink density, color, size, age, skin condition, placement, and how much larger or darker the new work can become. The generator helps you explore directions; an experienced cover-up artist must judge what is workable on your skin.
Why are tattoo cover up designs usually larger and darker?+
Existing ink does not disappear. A workable direction usually needs enough scale and intentional dark structure to absorb the old shapes instead of placing light details over them.
What do the red and blue overlays mean?+
Red estimates the old ink that must remain visible in the physical plan. Blue marks the larger area a new composition may use. Both are planning aids and can be corrected before generation.
Are generated results ready to tattoo?+
No. Results are consultation material, not stencils or tattoo-ready drawings. Bring the direction and risk map to a cover-up artist so they can redraw it for your body and skin.
How is my photo used?+
A normalized photo may be sent to the segmentation provider to map the existing ink. The design model then receives derived flat ink and mask images, rather than your original photo. Signed-in users can revisit private generations for 30 days and delete them at any time.
How much does this tattoo cover up generator cost?+
One generation uses 4 credits. Credit packs start at $6.99 for 24 credits, enough for 6 cover-up generations. Purchase before your first generation. Purchased credits never expire; there is no automatic renewal.
