I would love to have it lasers off. Is that possible? I got this tattoo 8 years ago to cover my stretch marks. I would love to have it removed.
Answer: Tattoo removal -- pico and q switched lasers yes, you can do laser but often it will be more noticeable with removal than the stretch marks. it will leave white areas and will be much harder to remove then the stretch marks as you have numerous colors. make sure to pretreat the skin (see link). this will take numerous treatments! Best. Dr. Emer.

Answer: PicoSure Laser for the most efficient removal of large, colorful tattoos Your tattoo can definitely be removed. However, tattoo removal can often be a tedious process which will require multiple treatment sessions over time, and will require patience on your part. Fortunately, technology today has improved dramatically. The new Pico devices, versus the older, less effective Q-switched lasers, are much more effective, and require less sessions, with faster, much more comfortable treatments. As far as number of sessions necessary and cost, there is a huge variation depending on size, color, body location, and depth/density/type of ink used. We typically tell patients 4-7 sessions is average, but there is huge variability based on the above factors. Cost is also variable depending on whether you pay by individual session, or pay a package price. You should be seen by a cosmetic specialist, who has the Pico technology available, and can provide more detailed information during your consultation.
