Laser treatment offers a safe, effective means of eliminating tattoos without cutting or scarring the skin. Two to six treatments are usually needed, depending on the size of the tattoo. Afterwards, the treated area may feel somewhat like a mild sunburn. The tattoo fades as the area heals, usually disappearing completely within a month or two. Not all tattoos, however, can be removed completely.
