Pete Davidson has been removing his tattoos with lasers for the past few years and now it appears the process is almost complete.
The comedian, 30, made a rare public appearance on Wednesday following his summer rehab stint, and fans couldn’t help but notice that his arms were noticeably bare.
Davidson is known for his extensive tattoos, which include sleeves on both arms, as well as inks on his torso, back, and legs.
However, the troubled star’s arms were almost back to their natural state when he joined Machine Gun Kelly at the Los Angeles Clippers’ home opener at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Los Angeles this week.
His skin looked tanned with a healthy glow and he had a warm, friendly smile on his face.

The former SNL star paid tribute to her late father and wore a sentimental T-shirt honoring the New York City firefighter, who heroically died saving others in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
He was wearing a red FDNY T-shirt with the organization’s logo and “New York Fire Department” on the front.
Davidson entered a wellness center to seek mental health treatment in late July.
In 2021, Davidson confirmed that he was ‘burning off’ his tattoos so he could land more film roles.
During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, the actor said he wants his tattoos removed so he doesn’t have to spend “three hours” putting on makeup every day to cover them up.
“Honestly, I never thought I’d get the chance to act and I love it so much,” she said at the time.
“You have to arrive three hours early to cover all your tattoos, because for some reason, people in the movies don’t have them as much,” he continued.

The comedian’s arms have almost returned to their original state after the comedian began removing his tattoos with laser.
And Pete admitted the process of removing the ink is “worse” than the pain that comes with the tattoo itself.
He told Seth, “So now I’m burning them, but burning them is worse than getting them.”
‘Because not only do they burn your skin, but you’re also wearing those big glasses, right?’ “So you can’t see anything and the doctor is there with you,” he continued.
“So before he goes to do each laser tattoo, you should listen to him announce what the tattoo is to make sure if you want to keep it or not.
“So I’ll be sitting there, far away from (nitrous oxide)… and all of a sudden I hear, ‘Are we going to keep Stewie Griffin smoking a joint?’ And then I have to sit there and say, ‘No, Dr. G”.
