Is my thick black tattoo possible to remove? (Photo)

Strelok77
Good Afternoon, i have got a black ink cross tattoo on my wrist(forearm) its about 7cm height and 5cm wide. My question is that, do i have a good chance to remove this tattoo?(even if a bit of scaring left worth it for me) I read a lot of things and stories in here, i know it takes a while so i am expecting up to 14-20 treatments, My immune system is really strong i guess that helps as well to remove the ink. Thank you very much for the answers.
