I am on treatment number 7 total. 5 with q-switched laser and 2 with pico sure . I haven't seen any changes since Last 3 treatments. Is not frosting anymore - what does that mean? Should I keep going or do I need to look for something different?

Answer: Slow removal process The Pico may help (but not always) speed things up. You could look for a provider who has a Ruby laser (we use this for resistant black inks) or a provider who offers PFD patch. This allows form multiple treatments in a single setting. Best of luck, Dr. M

Answer: How Many More... Thanks for your question and posting pictures. You would see much faster results with a picosecond laser. That being said, your tattoo removal progress is really determined by your metabolism. Lasers can only break up the ink into smaller particles. It's up to your body's lymphatic systems ability to carry it away. We recommend waiting 2-4 months between treatments. It's going to take several treatments to get rid of the lines and very dark shading on your tattoo. After doing PicoSure tattoo removal for almost 3 years, you have to constantly change the settings. Your ink is constantly moving and the technician has to adjust the setting to go deeper or more shallow on each treatment. After 7 treatments, we would recommend only treating your tattoo every 6 months and let your body break down as much ink as possible. Best of luck.
