Abstract
Surgical treatment of tattoos remains a useful tool for complete removal despite the availability of laser and other nonsurgical techniques. The procedures are in accordance with standard dermatosurgery used in aesthetic and oncologic therapies. Healing by primary intention or healing by secondary intention has its own indications. Skin defects can be closed by flaps, grafts, tissue extension, or tissue expansion.
