When I was 16 I let a friend who was practicing to become a tattoo artist give me a tattoo on my finger. Needless to say it was a huge mistake and it's been five years and I still can't get over it. I want it gone so bad but the ink is so dark and blown out that I'm afraid it won't be able to be removed or the laser will blow it out even more in the process. Is it possible for the laser to make it worse? Can it even be removed?
Answer: Laser Tattoo Removal Thank you for your question. Yes, laser tattoo removal such as Picosure can be used to remove your tattoo. PicoSure has a short pulse duration that exceeds photothermal action and results in an intense photomechanical impact and this adds up to faster results and fewer treatments when compared to other tattoo removal methods. The amount of sessions you will need depends on the size, color, and placement of the tattoo. Typically, you can expect 70-90% removal with treatment. I recommend having a consultation with an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

Answer: Tattoo Removal Black Ink You are a great candidate for laser tattoo removal! Black ink is the easiest color to remove. At our practice, we use a Q-Switched laser which we find very effective in removing tattoos such as yours.
