How many sessions of Picosure in general will it take to remove my tattoo? (Photo)

NYC2016
I had this done a few days ago in all-black ink, mostly in "dotwork" which I'm told is lighter on the skin. I know I have to wait 6-8 weeks after getting it to begin the removal, but once I do how many sessions on average should it take? I'm determined to use Picosure but as can be seen in the picture have tanned skin. Would that be a problem?
