i have had 5 laser treatments to remove my tattoo (and like you’re its about 2×2 inches) it cost me 200$ per session and i still have alot of ink left to remove. i never heard of wrecking balm but will check into that now (thank you) but i have heard of dermasal and i have not heard good things. as for the scarring, i believe that there will be some because of when the needle penetrated the skin it may have caused scarring but you just don’t see it because there is ink underneath. and let me tell you this LASER TATTOO REMOVAL HURTS WORSE THAN GETTING THE D*MN THING PUT ON!!! that being said there is a removal process in which they give you local anestesia and cut out a piece of your tattoo at a time and stitch it back to make it smaller and the bigger the tattoo the more sessions you will need. it is called surgical excising and i think that’s what i want to do with the one that is just a faded mess of a tattoo before i waste any more money on laser treatments. i don’t know how much it costs yet but i think it sounds like a better way to remove yours since it is so small and i have experience with the laser removal and very displeased with my results
