Why is Picosure Not Working For My Tattoo?

December 27, 2014
Asked By:kitkat613 in Clifton Park, NY

I've had 3 picosure sessions done and so far my black ink tattoo is not fading. The technician stared at 50% the last 2 sessions and then upped it to 100% but it did nothing to my tattoo. I thought picosure is one of the best lasers and it has a high success rate but I am very discouraged. Can you tell me what might be going on?
