Should a New Muslim Remove Tattoos?

[NaSra]

Salams


Alhamdulilah I have this good friend of mine who has accepted Islam recently. Does she need to remove her tattoos? I understand that you should but only if it's one that is small, for large ones it should be left because removing it is actually going to be harmful. That's what I heard but I'm not sure if it's authentic.


Please help me with a link or something. She's ready to do anything to remove them but I told her to wait.


I want only daleel.


Thank you.
