Tattoo Removal?

[20 Dollar Nose Bleed]

Hey - Just wondering if there's anyone on the forums that has ever had laser tattoo removal and if so...how'd it turn out? I've googled arounnd and not found much help at all.

I've got 3 black stars on my hip which were a cover up of small black music notes and i'm really thinking of having them removed (for several good reasons, i'm not the kind of person to change my mind about things easily) I don't hate the tattoo, it's not terrible but yeah. I'm thinking of getting it removed and want to know how it'd turn out.

Does it leave a scar where your tattoo used to be?
Does it leave the skin as it was before you had a tattoo?

I know it can cost quite abit and hurt, that's not a problem.
I just don't want to be left with a weirdly disfigured hip, know what I mean? I'd rather just leave the tattoo there.

Halps??
