My relative had a hot oil spill accident and burned 25% of her legs. It's been 15 days since she's been in the hospital, and we're really worried about how long it'll take for her to recover. Can you give us some idea of the recovery time? We're feeling pretty panicked about this.

Surgical Excision: In some cases, surgical removal of the tattoo may be recommended. Pre-Removal Considerations 1. Skin Type: Certain skin types may be more prone to complications during tattoo removal. 2. Tattoo Color: Green ink can be challenging to remove, as it may require specific laser wavelengths. 3.
