Pete Davidson has revealed the results of his ongoing tattoo removal process, appearing with nearly bare arms at CinemaCon 2026.

The comedian and former Saturday Night Live star attended the event on April 15 in Las Vegas, where his noticeably reduced body art drew attention.

Wearing a red T-shirt, grey sweatpants and white Crocs, Davidson’s appearance highlighted the progress of a procedure that began in 2020.

Once known for having around 200 tattoos, Davidson has undergone extensive laser treatments to remove most of the designs. Only faint outlines remain visible on his arms, marking a significant transformation from his earlier look.

Despite the removals, Davidson has chosen to keep several tattoos with personal significance. 

He has also retained tattoos connected to family and personal influences, including tributes to his late father, Scott Davidson, a firefighter who died during the September 11 attacks.

Davidson has openly discussed the challenges involved in removing tattoos, describing the process as physically demanding. “It’s awful,” he said. “I’ve been filming it and showing all the younger people in my family to be like, ‘If you don’t like it, this is what you have to do.’”

He added, “But I’m excited ‘cause I’m making changes. So I’m excited, but it sucks.”

The appearance marks one of the most visible updates on Davidson’s transformation as he continues the lengthy removal process.
