Could tattoo excision be performed on my inner wrist?

SophiaaihpoS
Hi there. I have a very small (approx 1cm square) tattoo on my inner wrist I want excised. It's affecting my health giving me massive anxiety and I'm not worried about the scars. I do not want to go through laser therapy as it would be long, drawn out and expensive. Please can you advise if excision could be performed in this area?
