Hello, I am currently taking Quetiapine Fumarate (seroquel) 6mg every night and 5mg of escitalopram (lexapro) each morning. Will taking these medications prevent my laser tattoo removal treatments from working on my eyebrow tattoos? My eyebrows are fading at an incredibly slow rate. I'm going to a professional nurse with great equipment. I have a lot of ink in there, and it's deep in my skin. Any info will help. Thank you.
