Overview

• Pete Davidson has spent $200,000 to remove tattoos, completing about 30% of the process since starting in 2020.
• The removal process requires 10–12 sessions per tattoo, with six-week healing periods, and is projected to take another decade.
• Davidson began removing tattoos to ease makeup demands for acting but now sees it as a way to distance himself from his past struggles with addiction.
• He plans to keep only two or three tattoos, viewing the removal as a fresh start for his mental health and self-image.
• Davidson debuted his tattoo-free arms in a February 2025 Reformation campaign, marking a visible milestone in his transformation.
