Cutting out large lower back tattoo? (Photo)

July 13, 2017
Asked By:nickiiijack in Baton Rouge, LA

I have a large lower back tattoo in black in that I got about 18 yrs ago. Would it be possible to have it excised. Lasers don't seem to be working. It doesn't even have to be the entire tattoo. Just as much as possible so I can cover it up with something better.
