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.
