Greetings
1. yes - through plastic surgery or excision and regrafting - the tattoo can be removed in a single shot - however - it is associated with a healing downtime post surgery, possibilities of patch like appearance are there
2. Dermabrasion is another option - but again scarring can occur
3. laser is a good option - but needs several sittings
If for any job recuritment like joining the army - go for 'one shot' treatemnt
Cost will vary depending on size of tattoo and procedure opted for
