How long after implant removal with lift is it safe to get tattoo removal?

Asked By:m7733 in Wilmington, North Carolina

Four months ago I had my implants removed and a lift due to capsular contracture. I'm 38. I want to remove a 3"x3" tattoo on my wrist, but don't want to overwhelm my immune system. How long should I wait to start laser treatments? I want my body to focus on healing the anchor scars.
