Tattoo Removal for Large Black Tattoo?
I have a large black professionally done tattoo on my forearm. I want to fade it enough to cover it up with a half sleeve tattoo. Any idea on how many treatments this would require to acomplish?

Laser tattoo removal large black tattoo
Thank you for the question.
Based on your description of the tattoo you probably will require 5 to 10 treatments before the ink has faded enough to allow for a cover up tattoo.
Best wishes.

It will take 8 to 12 treatments, maybe more
It usually takes 8 to 12 or more monthly treatments to fade a tattoo significantly. Overtreating doesn’t guarantee quicker resolution but could increase the risk of scarring.
