I have purchased a IPL hair removal device and have used it twice now on my tattoo to try and remove it. Help Please? (photo)

It scabbed up (not enough to scar) the first time through the week and the scabbed parts fell off and there was less ink on the tattoo in those parts. I was wondering is this actually going to work? Can I harm myself or skin in any way doing this? Could I get cancer or some medical issues? What should I do?
