Eyebrow tattoo turned black after first laser removal session. Will this improve after the second session? (photo)

Irish Rose
I had my first session to remove a semi permanent eyebrow tattoo and it has turned black in colour with fuzzy,undefined lines. Directly after the procedure my brows were very bruised so I was hoping it was just bruising, but it's a week later and the bruising seems to have cleared up and now I'm pretty sure the colour is just black. This is really upsetting. Will this improve in the second session? Or should I try to get my money back for the pre-paid 2nd session and seek out a different laser?
