In Novosibirsk, the number of organizations offering tattoo removal services has significantly increased. According to 2GIS analysts, in October 2026 there were 165 such points in the city - 34% more than two years earlier. This is reported by Infopro54.
The growing interest in getting rid of tattoos is observed in Russia as a whole. From January to September 2026, the number of search queries to remove drawings from the skin increased by 13% compared to the same period last year. Interest in getting new tattoos decreased by 3%.
In Novosibirsk, the median starting cost of one removal session is about 1500 rubles. For comparison, in Omsk the procedure starts from 1000 rubles, and in Krasnoyarsk - from 1300 rubles. The average median indicator among Russian cities with a million people reaches 1920 rubles.
In total, more than three thousand organizations offer tattoo removal in 16 largest cities of the country. In two years, their number increased by 27%.
The founder of the Novosibirsk tattoo salon "Tatunkhamon" Anatoly Keksel believes that the growing popularity of removing drawings does not indicate the disappearance of fashion for tattoos.
Many customers want to get rid of images taken 10-20 years ago. The reasons are a change in the appearance of the tattoo, loss of color or unsatisfactory quality of the original work.
At the same time, the expert predicts the further development of both the market for tattooing and services for their removal.
Earlier, “MK in Novosibirsk” reported that the city was among the three Russian leaders in the number of tattoo salons.
