Minor Scar Tissue and Laser Tattoo Removal?

Barbiedoll90
I have a question. I have a tattoo that was placed November last year, it hurt so bad to be placed and the lines blew out in some areas and in others were raised for weeks while healing... The lines did go down some but when putting some pressure and feeling the outline it's raised in some places. It's not visible that's it raised but I notice it. Will laser tattoo removal make this worse? I'm scared that more collagen or whatever it is will form following laser treatment.
