Will my color tattoo, especially the blue background and yellow poppies, be difficult to laser? (photos)

Brand new tattoo (colored about 2 weeks ago). I am so so disappointed with the colors and want it lasered off so I can get it redone in just black and gray. So if there are small traces of color that could be easily covered it won't be a huge deal but I really mostly want the blue background shading gone and the bright yellow in the poppies, that's what I hate the most and what is apparently, through my research, the hardest colors to remove. Any advice or knowledge is much appreciated!! Molly
