I have a tattoo on my wrist of length 5 cm and breadth 1 cm of green colour. What time and cost is taken in removing the tattoo, because I have to give medical examination of airforce next month. Is tattoo removal rare or it is cheaply available. I get tattoo before 9 years. Can it cause any skin disease now.

Hello. For such a short time and for the dimensions of the tattoo which you have mentioned, definitely a surgical excision will be the best. Laser therapy will take longer time. The excision will give you complete results within 15 days. Cost depends on the place where you get it done. At your place it should not cost more than 8k.
