Can this ring tattoo be removed? If so, how much $$? (Photo)

In order to get an accurate pricing on tattoo removal you should visit your local Medical Aesthetician who specializes in laser tattoo removal. They will be able to go over the procedure with you. The tattoo removal will help to reduce the appearance of the tattoo however due to the dark coloring and bold outlines it is hard to determine how many sessions you will need.

Thanks so much for your photo and question. Yes, the tattoo can be removed but you might find it more difficult to remove given the placement and depth of ink. The good news is that Picosecond lasers are fantastic at removing these stubborn tattoos. Here are my tips for successful tattoo removal. Good luck!Tattoo removal, if not done correctly, can result in either scarring or ghosting.  Here are some tips:
Find a reputable office with a Pico laser. It produces faster results with less scarring than a nano alone.  Tattoo removal shops are not as reputable as a Doctor. Many of these shops close as quickly as they open, leaving you out of luck on pre-paid packages.Stay out of the sun— sunlight can be harmful to healing in after any laser procedureAvoid infections- This means keep your tattoo area clean (i.e. don’t garden right after a tattoo removal on your arm, etc), don’t pick scabs or blisters if they occur.  Follow our post procedure instructions. Avoid swimming for 48 hours as water can infect the treated areas.Allow healing between treatment sessions- typically 4-8 weeks.Be healthy- while the tattoo laser breaks up the tattoo particles, your body will actually eliminate the particles. Being healthy will help achieve this process faster and allow for consistent healing. Drink lots of water, get adequate sleep, and eat vitamin enriched foods.In our practice we utilize the currently most powerful Pico laser on the market called the PiQo4 by Lumenis.  The main advantage of a stronger tattoo laser (combining nano and pico wavelengths at greater power) is faster breakup of the tattoo.  The science of tattoo removal is complex but essentially the greater power will photo acoustically break up tattoo particles in smaller pieces.

This can be removed with laser tattoo removal. Tattoos should be removed with q switched or pico lasers.  It will take a series of treatments, but it's difficult to determine how many sessions you'll need. Cost will vary. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a laser tattoo removal expert. Best, Dr. Emer
