What will be the best tattoo removal procedure to remove a Green dragon Tattoo on my ribs?.... I will be getting a tummy tuck and I know part of it will be gone

Based on your photos, I would try to find a practitioner that has the PicoSure device and schedule a consultation.  The PicoSure laser is currently the best on the market working 3x faster than all other lasers. It's also ideal for all skin types and tattoo colors. It will definitely be your best bet.
My best,

Hello,  There are several devices out there for laser tattoo removal.  This is a very large, colorful tattoo.  Different colors respond to different wavelengths. The latest technology in laser tattoo removal is the pico-second technology.  The PicoWay Laser uses photomechanical/pressure waves rather
than photothermal/heat.This process has
less heat, therefore it is more comfortable and the chances of
hyperpigmentation are less.The
Pico-second pulse shatters the ink into even smaller particles, allowing the
body to more easily absorb the ink.  Either way, it will be multiple treatments.Good Luck!
