Can I tattoo over an arm that has been [ tattooed--->received 3 laser sessions--->re-tattooed--->had 3 more sessions ]? It has been almost two years since the last session. There is some mild/moderate scarring on about 10-20% of my arm. Thanks in advance
I had my second laser session 15 days ago on a sizable leg piece. I wound up in urgent care on Sunday for this absolutely intense itching, I couldnt sleep. Two questions for the MDs out there: 1) how long does this itching normally last in patients? The best hope the internet gives me is that the total healing process could last ~3 weeks. The itching keeps me awake at night so any hope that it will reside soon is more than welcome. 2) photos attached - did this tech overdo it? I want to call and notify the doctor that her tech burned me in two places, but not without being absolutely sure.
This was done about 4 weeks ago by a YAG machine. 1st treatment. is this even normal? the rest of the tattoo looks fine and the scabs are almost fully healed. This one burn doesn't have a tattoo under the scabs, which are barely even scabs, the wound is still open. How will this look? is it gonna look bad? is the skin gonna be white? red? probably gonna leave a scar? In how long will I be able to do a tattoo make over on this? I'm very worried and depressed about this! Thanks a lot for your time.
Hi there this is my second treatment of laser tattoo removal the first treatment was done at a well known tattoo parlour and took around 45 seconds to do the whole tattoo the second however was done a a local laser clinic and took around 1 min to do a very small test piece as you can see from the photos I was left with a rather bad hole in my arm from this treatment. My question is will this heal and is there anything I can do to help the healing process. Many thanks in advance Peter.
I recently had a tattoo removal session for three tattoos, two being on my feet. One of my feet swelled up and blistered really badly making it incredibly painful to walk or stand. I have heard different doctors opinions as far as popping the blisters to get relief or leaving them alone due to risk of scarring. I was also told this is a 2nd degree burn and not a normal response to the treatment. I'm worried about scarring and not sure how I should move forward with caring for it, please help!
I just got home from my removal session I feel I should mention that the session prior, I got an ice burn (they freeze the area before lasering) but I gave it two months for it to completed heal. I've never bled this much before I'm concerned that it might leave a scar or something. I called the place and the girl who performed on me said that it was normal to bleed, but I want to make sure. The areas that are bright red are dried blood. How should I care for this? How should I wash the area?
I fear that I have become severly burned by laser Tattoo removal. Where there was a giant blister there is now a lot of redness. When I press on it, it turns white but will become red again moments later. If I place my arm straight up a lot of the redness subsides. I'm assuming less blood is being circulated. I had my first laser tattoo removal session on may 13th with a medlite laser. It is now june 23rd. And there is still redness around the eye of the tattoo. I'm afraid that there is permament damage to the skin tissue.
I've had 4 laser tattoo removal treatments. The last time I went, the cold packs were very cold and left on a long time (maybe 10 minutes). As a result, I have burns on my skin (not where the tattoo is) that hurt and look worse than the laser removal area! Should I complain to the company that is doing the removal?
I have had a single treatment then an r20treatment but this time i did a single treatment but this time the level was raised to 10 on the anstaza trinity laseri now have small burn marks and a little hyperpigmentation will both these things go away? Will the burn mars peep off?...is my tattoo going through a normal faze
