Many factors influence the success rate of a tattoo removal. The tattoo size and color you got from somewhere like Tattoomenow or Chopper Tattoos have a great effect on how and if the tattoo can be completely removed. The tattoo’s location on the body also affects removal.

There are several methods for tattoo removal. Very small tattoos can be removed with excision. This is the procedure when a small tattoo is simply cut away. An incision is made, that tattoo is removed and the skin is then sutured closed.

Larger tattoos may be removed by excision as well; however it may take several attempts to remove the entire art. Many times, the middle portion of the tattoo is removed and allowed to heal before attempts are made to excise the outer portions. Another technique for excising larger tattoos is to take a skin graft from another area on the body to make it possible to close the incision.
