What are the chances of removal with a laser on a tattoo that's scarred?

I have a tattoo on my ribs that I picked at when it was first done and so therefore it has caused it to be permanently slightly raised. I'm currently getting treated with a q-switched laser and just want to know what my chances of removal are with this scar tissue?
