Is pinpoint bleeding after laser tattoo removal normal? This was my second session and it's pretty intense (Photo)

Depending on the type of laser and the depth of the pigment, some patients may experience pinpoint bleeding. Your reaction may not be typical of laser tattoo removal with all pigments. Discuss your findings with your practitioner. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Santa Monica

This is not common but the response is not necessarily bad or untoward for the expected outcome. 532 nm Q switched lasers are effective for red inks or a picosecond laser like PicoWAY.
