Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya
In our knowledge, there are 4 treatments to help with the aforesaid issue; laser removal, surgical removal, dermabrasion, and creams.
Local anesthesia is used in laser treatment which is spread over 6 to 8 sessions, sometimes more. The pigment colors of tattoos are broken with high intensity light beam.
In surgical removal or excision tattoo removal, your tattooed skin would be cut and replaced with the bare skin tissues from other organs. It's effective as well as less expensive.
Dermabrasion involves removing layers of your skin to allow ink to leach out. Efficacy varies, in some cases you are able to get rid of most of the tattoo using this method.
Creams can lighten the tattoo at the best but their efficacy is debated however.
There's a risk of scarring in all treatments above except that of creams, and therefore it's advised that post these treatments you avoid tight clothes, exposure to sun, and picking on scabs. The cost varies from 1500-6000 INR per session. We have an updated list of Dermatologists in India, you can refer and connect with experts to get more information
