My tattoo is a little red and scabby one week after my first laser removal. Is this normal? I have been putting polysporin on it a few times a day
Answer: Reactions following a laser tattoo removal treatment That is a normal reaction following a laser tattoo removal treatment. It just means you got a very thorough treatment and after a few weeks your skin should begin to settle back down. If it does not, be sure you see a board certified dermatologist or an expert in laser tattoo removal to ensure the area is healing like it should be. Thanks for your question!

Answer: Tattoo Removal Healing Normal? Hi Andi, you are doing the right thing with your recovery. Although scabbing is not the desired result, it sometimes happens and does indicate that you got a thorough treatment. Keep caring for it diligently by keeping it moisturized and you should heal well.

Answer: Yes, that looks normal :) If it starts becoming increasingly MORE red (especially is it becomes more painful and/or has a pus-like discharge, contact your doctor. But, infection is NOT very common :)
