Tattoo laser removal! Is it infected? Was not expecting this outcome. (Photo)

I recommend following up with a Doctor for a formal evaluation and wound care. I recommend silicone gel with growth factors and hyperbaric oxygen to promote healing. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Based on your photos, the post tattoo removal wound area does appear to be potentially infected. The symptoms you're describing of pain, pus, swelling, and redness are all signs of possible infection. It would be wise to contact the provider who did you tattoo removal treatment as soon as possible to consult with a physician for treatment. I would encourage you use Silagen once your wound closes to help prevent scarring long term.

Thank you for your question. By
looking at your photographs, it seems an infection may have occurred. It is
quite unusual to experience such redness, pain and pus after laser treatment. I
would recommend you consult an expert for evaluation as soon as you can. All
the best!

The redness, pain, and pus indicate that there may be an infection.  You should see a doctor as soon as possible for evaluation and treatment.  If there is no doctor present at the laser clinic where you were treated, you need to find another doctor to see you today.  Regards,Dr. Ort

Thanks for your question.  Q-Switch or nanosecond lasers have a more inherent risk of complication over picosecond lasers.  Blistering is more common on the lower extremities (below elbows and knees) because blood flow is less so healing is slower.  Laser tattoo removal blisters should generally be treated like those from a sun burn.  We do not recommend you puncture (pop) them.  If you must, use a sterile needle to drain the fluid, but keep the overlying skin otherwise intact and in place to protect the healing area.  We also recommend keeping it elevated as much as possible.  Avoid heat (hot tub, hard cardio workout, working outside, etc.) for 24 hours after laser treatment and as long as you have blisters. There are several ways to tell if it gets infected:  fever or high heat on the treated area (although with swelling, you can expect that area to be warmer than non-swollen areas of your body), appearance of pus or drainage of any color other than clear, if the swelling decreases, then seems to increase again, especially if the swelling becomes hard or painful.  You will probably know if it becomes infected-the appearance of the wound will change.  If you have any questions about it at all, seek medical attention immediately.

It looks to me that you were treated with either a non Q switched laser (i.e. one designed for laser hair removal etc) or  a Q switched laser at settings that were significantly higher that required. It looks as if the epidermis is open and it indeed may be infected and likely will leave a scar.
See a medical profession to evaluate and treat any infection that may have developed.
