Can a recently made black tattoo be fully removed?

tmarki
I have a tattoo on my entire chest and I really loved the design until I saw the result. The reason why I am planning to remove it is that I am not satisfied with it at all. The artist did not really take her time, did the entire tattoo in 4 hours and the amount of mistakes i found since that day is too high to let it stay on my body. The doctor I talked to is working with Q-switch technology, so the question is, can it be fully removed and in how many treatments?
