Hey everybody. So this website has really helped...
Hey everybody. So this website has really helped me on other procedures so I figured I should contribute back to the community with my story of my tattoo removal. So, I got this tattoo when I was 18 BIG MISTAKE. It's huge and in a very painful area, my ribs!!! I'm digging through my computer to see if I can find a photo of my tattoo when I got the first procedure done on JUNE 22. The first laser process and I only found one that I sent on skype which doesnt even show the whole tattoo, but it does show the redness.
ANYWAYS! Before I talk more about it, I just want to add that I did tattoo removal before like 1 or 2 years ago and I did like 3 sessions and there were ABSOLUTELY NO RESULTS. It hurt, but it did not fade my tattoo at all. Waste of money, so I really want you guys to search for a facility that has alot of result photos and for the practioner to be sure that the tattoo can be removed. The first one I went to didnt seem that confident and didn't give me an estimate on how many sessions I needed. This facility also did tons of things besides just tattoo removal so they weren't commited to only that procedure. I then went to a different one a few years later and they had great reviews and result photos. I went in for a consult and she told me my tattoo should have had alot more change if I already had 3 sessions done. I told her who i got it done by and she said that they used an old laser and not as effective. Also this new facility does ONLY tattoo removal, so they must exceed at this or they willl go out of business.
Okay, so, i'm going to post photos after every session and then again once they heal. They quoted me that it will be completely removed in 8 sessions and it's been one, and i will have another next week! BY THE WAY the first session HURT SO MUCH. alot more than the first place i previosuly went to which i believe is a good thing. must be much more effective. Like the pain was a 9/10. I tried to tough it out and didn't buy the topical number that they recommended but that was a huge mistake and i got some for the next session. After the first session, it was red and botchy and I had blisters and I WAS HAPPY IT WAS SO UGLY BECAUSE IT MEANS IT WAS WORKING! The first place i went to only raised the tattoo but it wasn't red at all and I think that's because it wasn't as strong. Also, i'm sorry for rushing this so much. I just now decided to do this review and there's just so much information I had to cover. I'm sorry my photos suck, as I'm not fond of the tattoo so didn't take many photos of it lol.
ALSO! PRICE! 25$/square foot. My tattoo is pretty big so it was 300$ per session which is gnna be around 2400$ + for it to completely remove.
