tattoos can be removed with laser surgery - usually a series of treatments depending on the size, color, etc. of the area to be done. check with a local dermatologist... "gang" related tattoos are usually removed at no charge.

You can try laser removal. There is also a product called Wrecking Balm which a few people I have talked to said works suprisingly well at a fraction of the cost, however it takes a long time to work. If you can't afford laser removal you might want to look into it, or another bleaching system.

You can remove by laser surgery, but you will spend a pretty penny. I would suggest maybe doing a coverup instead.
My sister had her husband's name tattoo on her arm, they had a nasty divorce, and got it covered with a broken heart to remind her of that time in her life without keeping the branding of his name for all the world to see. Much cheaper than laser surgery, that's for sure!
Good luck!

Yeah there's a procedure called IPL which breaks down the ink on a cellular level & allows it to be absorbed into the body. Do a search for beauty salons in your area that do it - it's not cheap & it may take a few sittings but it works a whole lot better than cutting the tatt out & grafting skin.

With the laser treatments I think the area will be lighter than the rest of your skin.
