From regret to reference
Snap a photo
Good light, straight-on. Names, tribals, faded or blown-out ink — start with your existing tattoo.
We read your old ink
AI maps how dark, big and dense it is, then recommends styles and scale for a cover-up concept.
Pick a direction
Florals, animals, blackwork, Japanese… get 4 designs placed on your skin.
Take it to your artist
Unlock HD concepts, the honest preview, a coverage score and a stencil outline.
Old ink still matters.
An AI image can erase your old tattoo and paint something new. Real ink does not work like that — new ink cannot lighten old ink.
InkReborn simulates old-ink show-through and gives each concept a coverage estimate, so you can discuss the trade-offs with your artist before choosing a direction.

Cover-ups people actually need
Research demonstrations, not healed tattoos or customer outcomes. Final feasibility depends on skin, old ink and your artist. Sources, adaptations and image credits.

Wrist & hand
Small spaces, visible spots — plan a composition around the old ink.
Lower back
Refresh a 2000s classic into something current.
Blown-out & faded ink
Blurry lines need the right density. Start with the shape that is there.
Close more cover-up consults
Show clients 4 concepts on their own skin during the consult, review coverage before you commit, and export a stencil outline. Keep client folders together, with your studio branding on approved share links.
InkReborn Pro for artistsQuestions
Can any tattoo be covered up?
Not every tattoo can be covered by every design. Dark, solid or very large tattoos may need bigger, denser designs or professional advice about lightening first. An AI coverage estimate is a discussion aid, not a guarantee.
Is the preview exactly what I'll get?
No — it is an AI-generated concept to discuss with your artist. A professional will adapt it to your skin, the old ink and their own style.
What happens to my photo?
Photos are private by default and automatically expire after 30 days. You can delete your photo and its related images from your account anytime. InkReborn does not use your uploads to train its own models; our AI provider processes them to create your concepts.
How much does it cost?
One free generation gives you 2 watermarked previews. Starter is $9.99 for 20 designs and Plus is $19.99 for 60 designs. These are digital concept credits, separate from your artist's tattooing fee. Prices are in USD; applicable taxes are calculated at checkout.
