I found a plastic surgeon who said he could excise the bulk of a pretty large tattoo from top of wrist to elbow.he drew a linear and said he would be able to do basically my whole arm.like 10 inches long by 3 inches wide.never mentioned a skin graft and would put me to sleep.my skin is pretty laxity though.my question is that actually possible.it seemed like a lot of skin to cut out in one session.he is a board certified plastic surgeon.only doctor I found to do tattoo excisions.ink is all black
