I saw a tattoo being removed in a Navy hospital once "the old fashioned way" by dermabrasion with a rock salt paste. The poor guy had blood pouring down his arm (the tattoo had been on his shoulder). A corpsman was making a paste of rock salt and some fluid (saline, probably), applying it with a gauze pad and then scrubbing off layers of skin with it. They said it would take 3 to 10 sessions to fully remove it. Of course it left scarring. An old chief was standing over them threatening the sailor if he let out a whimper. One of the reasons I waited until I was almost 62 to get my first tattoo!
