Can dermabrasion remove a tattoo? What is the success of it?

Question

Hi. I am wasted of making laser removal. I think I dont have any other chance but dermabrasion. What about the success of it? Please can you help me? I really feel helpless

Francis Johns, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.I would not recommend dermabrasion for tattoo removal. The dermabrasion will help with scarring and fine lines, but its not going to remove the pigment from a previous tattoo.

Alex Khadavi, MD · Answer

Hello there, 
To answer your question, dermabrasions will not succeed in tattoo removal. Dermabrasions exfoliate the surface of the skin and can help with uneven skin texture, sun damage and fine lines. I would suggest something more invasive such as a laser treatment. 
Best,
