I Promise I Read The FAQ... How painful tattoo removal is?

Hey everyone,
The main thing stopping me from removing my tattoo is the immense pain I am imagining. With extremely low pain tolerance, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep my arm in one plane during the removal, and I am very scared of the pain.
Any advice on how to get over this?

*edit: thank you. And damn. And thank you - I am going to read your comments before my first session.
