I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for after care. Some blistering can happen with laser tattoo removal. I recommend silicone gel with growth factors and hyperbaric oxygen to promote healing. The skin must completely heal prior to future treatments. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
Yes, blistering is quite common after laser tattoo removal treatment. Frequently the energy you are given is increased with each treatment, so that may be why you didn't blister with your earlier treatments. In general, small blisters should be left alone, but a large bubble blister will be better off popped since it will pop at some point anyway or will be difficult for you to manage without popping it. Treat the area with soap and water, keep moist with Aquaphor, and keep covered until healed.
Hi,Unfortunately Blisters can occur with tattoo laser removal treatments and often they appear further along in your treatment as the settings are cranked up often at subsequent sessions to help better remove the ink. Recommend first call your provider and send them a photo as done here to let them know and get their recommendations and our recommendations go something like this.Unless it is very huge and about to pop, please don't pop it. And, keep it very clean and covered..you can wash it out with soap and water...and no further treatments until completely healed. Usually next tat removal sessions isn't until 4-6 weeks down the road anyway,Again, any questions always call your provider and if continued concerns after the phone call, schedule an appt and go in...we tell clients we are here and prefer they come in versus worrying.Take care,Dr. Amy

Please discuss with your Board Certified Dermatologist who treated you how they would like you to care for the blisters. Most Derms would recommend keeping it clean, moist with aquaphor and covered.

Thanks for your questions. Your multi color tattoo is professional grade and will require the "best of the best" in terms of laser technology, especially to attack those blue greens and red yellows. No laser wavelength is drawn to white ink. However, what white you have is surrounded by...
