Hayden Panettiere was spotted in a bikini in Hollywood beach, Florida, with a part of her tattoo erased, suggesting she is in the midst of removing her four-year-old misspelled tattoo.

Actress Hayden Panettiere is undergoing a laser treatment to correct her four-year-old misspelled tattoo. The 24-year-old actress had the phrase "live without regrets" tattooed on the left side of her rib cage in Italian in 2009, but she discovered later that the last word was misspelled. The tattoo reads "Vivere senza rimpianti," where the last word missed a vowel. It should have actually read "rimipianti."

The former "Heroes" star was spotted in Hollywood beach, Florida on Sunday, in a lime green, black and white bikini, swimming, strolling, and sharing beers with her friends, according to Daily Mail. But the photographs show the star's tattoo partially erased, suggesting she is in the midst of removing her tattoo permanently. But will Panettiere get the corrected version of the body art or plans to remove it permanently is unknown at this time.

Explaining the origin of her tattoo, Panettiere told the May issue of Glamour magazine "It's Italian. When I was younger, I was upset, and my dad said he wanted to show me something. He slammed one door of the bathroom, and the closet door popped open - it was a trick with the air."

"Whenever one door closes, another one always opens," she recalled her father saying. "So my tattoo means 'Live without regrets.' It's not that you don't regret things in life, but you at least try to learn from them."

"It's misspelled too. So I literally have to live by that advice!" she said jokingly to the magazine.
