Hi. I am female and have had a tattoo for about ten years. It is about 3 and a half inches, round, and on my upper arm. Kind of star shaped. One dark color. I can post a pic if necessary.

I really want to have this tattoo removed. What would everyone suggest? I have some money, but not alot. What should my options and costs be? I live in Miami, Florida. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hello
I have went to a laser specialist for a consultation for a tattoo removal & the estimate was about $1200 for about 5 sessions, & that is here in Canada.
Go for a consultation - that part is free.
Good luck!

I have undergone 3 laser treatments for a removal of a tattoo on my ankle. Mine is about 4 inches long and about 3 wide. Mine had several colors in it. They say that the black ink is easier to remove than the green. I still have the outside (tracing) to do. The inside has faded a lot but still need about 5 sessions. I was paying $75.00 per session. I think it's worth it so my children won't have to see it when they are older.

I had a tattoo removed by Dr. Paul Dermer in Miami, FL about 7 years ago. It took about six sessions and cost me about $1000 or so. I'm very pleased with the results. If you consult with him, just make sure he is using the latest laser technology. I believe the newer lasers can remove tattoos in only two or three sessions. If you want you can email me at DemiseofSanity77@aol.com.

Some tattoos are a lot harder to remove than others. An all black tattoo is usually easier to remove than a multicolor one. For black, a q-switched YAG laser is best, while for green and blue, a q-switched ruby is best. You could find out more info at www.tattoomdla.com
