How soon can I begin to remove my black and gray tattoo?

allltoids
I got tattooed by a friend about 2 weeks ago - Big mistake. I liked it at first, but the more I look at it, I am disliking it and I'd like to have it removed. I feel like he did not execute it properly. I have done a lot of research on tattoo removal since I was in a panic. I guess my main question is - How soon can I start on getting it removed? And as an estimate - how many treatments will I need and how much will it cost? Thank you in advance.
