Asked By:melimal95 in Denton, TX

As in can u get a small part of a tattoo removed while the rest of the tattoo remains unharmed or at least won't get ruin? Example.. the date under the roses is still visible after a cover up and I was wondering if I can just laser the numbers and then just get the tattoo redone after it completely heals
