I am posting a picture of my tattoo 3 days post my 3rd treatment. The picture is pretty gruesome, it's after some of the blisters have burst. It blistered A LOT this time. At first I had little tiny blisters and by the end of the day it turned into many big blisters and a huge blister in the middle. I have been keeping it covered and applying Neosporin to it. A lot of the blisters burst when I was sleeping and during the day today. Due to the blistering I am hoping to see a lot of fading this time. I will keep you posted.

I knocked off some stars off my provider because they had different people working there and I don't know how experienced the person was. I didn't feel as comfortable as the first time. I really hope to see more fading this time.

Just wondering how your fading is now after your third treatment and some healing has taken place.

Hi, actually i'm a little upset and will discontinue my treatments until further notice. I have noticed a lot of fading of the black ink after this treatment but I think it hypo-pigmentated my skin. From my research I hope my normal skin color will come back but I don't know for sure. Most people say that hyper-pigmentation and hypo-pigmentation from lasers usually returns back to normal so I'm hoping this is my case. I don't see why this happened since I take good care of not popping the blisters and not picking at the scab.

Just wanted to post the pictures I have available. The laser technician did a much better job than the last person. I have lots of blistering today and I will post pictures of that later. Here are the pictures of the day after the session.

I went in for my third treatment this morning and yet again I had a different person removing it. This person was much more knowledgeable than the last person. The last session was not as good as the first one and I did not see fading at all. I am considering switching providers although I am already scheduled for my next (4th) treatment. I cannot post pictures today because it is still covered but I will post soon. Again I used the prescription lidocaine for numbing.
