I have a blackout tattoo on my upper arm. It was done twice to ensure that it was completely blacked out. Meaning, I got it done, let it heal completely then got it done over again. I researched laser and the different types of lasers and still have not seen any with outcomes that I like for such a large piece. I would like to get it surgically removed of some sort.
