Asked By:alon30 in German Valley, IL

Hello, 4 years ago I did a tattoo in my scalp. It is simulates hair follicles . Six weeks ago I had FUE operation and the doctor determined my hair line high and 2 cm of tattooing remain outside the area of transplantation. I want to remove it by laser. Does it cause any damage to grafts are near the tattoo? Thanks
