Is it normal to have pinkish/white skin after scab has fallen off from tattoo removal? would this be considered hypopigmentation? and is it permanent? the tattoo is located on my lower side. background: this will be my 4th session. My 3rd session was back 2015 and I just did my 4th recently because I had gone to mexico in Jan and waited 6 months after I got back to go for my next session.
