I originally got the tattoo Back in January of 2016 then got a cover up a few months after. There was a part of the tattoo that i didn’t like So my artist told me he could cover that part up with skin tone ink (peach color). He thinks I’ll need 2 more sessions of skin tone ink to completly cover it up, but I’m having second thoughts. Idon’t think the ink will end up matching my skin color. Is it to late to get laser removal? If so, what laser would be best for my situation? Thank you so much!

I would recommend having your tattoo removed with a Picosure laser. Picosure lasers use pressure waves to break down the ink with a laser that is measured in picoseconds (or 1 trillionth of a second, which is about 1000 times faster than a nanosecond).
