Tattoo removal is disclosed. In an example, a method for removing tattoo ink from skin or resolving a medical condition related to tattoo ink, includes applying a primary solution of beta glucan to a treatment area having tattooed skin. The primary solution stimulates the skin in the treatment area to enhance removal of the tattoo ink from the skin. The example method also includes coating the treatment area with a secondary solution. The secondary solution may have an absorbent material to draw in loose ink. The example method also includes disrupting a skin barrier in the treatment area by a needle or ablative device to improve penetration of at least one of the primary solution and the secondary solution.
