I wanted to remove this tattoo so bad, So I had my first sitting with topical cream last week, the C and Z was the most pain, removal feels like when bacon grease pops in pan and hits you, total electric zaps on tattoo were 13,300,saved money by using tea tree oil on tattoo for fast healing, will follow up during removal should be10 months

Great review?

What is the story on the Tea tree oil. Did you use it right after treatment? I have not heard of that, but I have only done my first of 13 treatments.

Not sure what time of topical cream it was, here is a link for the website http://beautyfullspa.ca/ the lazer gun they used is a Victory 2 ND-YAG Lazer

I dont think that that laser is medical grade it looks very portable. I believe with a better quality laser you would find less pain and better results. Just my opinion. Good Luck to you

Thanks for adding a video Carz. That is so helpful for those of us who haven't actually seen the procedure. Of course I was thinking of the bacon grease feeling & holding my stomach in sympathy for you the entire time, haha!

That's good that they gave you an estimate and will decline price if it's not done by that time. What kind of laser did they use? I'd had 6 treatments already and mine is nowhere near gone so that's insane that they only estimated 5. Did you get numbing treatment at all? I couldn't imagine the pain of that on your stomach.

Sorry i looked over the part where you said you used topical cream. What kind did you use?

Wow, that seems like a pretty sensitive area to have "bacon grease splatters" on. :( How many treatments are you suppose to have over the 10 month period?

Yes it stings a little, I have 3 treatments left $475 every 2 months, If they do need a 5th one the price will be much cheaper for it,

I think its really cool when they do a price reduction for additional treatments needed beyond what they estimate. It just makes me think they are really confident in the treatment they have suggested.
