Removing my 12 Year Old Wings. - Ohio

Trying Latisse! - Cuyahoga Falls, OH

I have had only 3 sessions thus far, therefore I have spent $750. Everyone's total amount will be different as no two tattoos are the same. Until it is fully removed, I have no answer for you.

Yes, they say it takes 16 weeks to see the full effect, but everyone is different. I've seen some lenght and curl so far.

I didn't notice a whole lot of fading after the first session. I prepared for the second session and it barely hurt, even afterwards. The first one is STILL the worst. The numbing cream seems to help quite a bit. Put a good amount of it on your tattoo about 1.5 hours before and cover it with something that will not soak up the cream.. something that will allow it to soak into your skin. Ice. ICE it. Ice is a wonderful thing.

However, my first session only took around 35-40 seconds. My second one lasted about a min or so.. and my third took TWO minutes of pain. I put my cream on less than 45 min before my treatment. My fault. I believe my dr tested me to see what my pain threshold was before moving on. He said he used the same strength on the third one as the second one.

Don't dread the pain.. use the numbing cream. Where are your wings at?

Your immune system IS attacking the ink. It's what carries the broken up particles away. My sick feeling went away a day or so later. I didn't feel as bad after the second session.

I actually made a cover for it for when I go tanning. And, I have sunscreen sticks for when I'm out by the pool. I read up on it before getting it done. :)
