Deep tattoo removal. Am I wasting my time with PicoSure?

October 6, 2017
Asked By:kemery in Glen Allen, VA

Hi I have undergone one picosure treatment on 2 star tattoos that I had around 10 years ago. The tattoo was done professionally but badly and then touched up afterwards to make it less wonky! I now remember the touch up tattooist saying the dodgy tattooist had gone too 'deep' with the ink in the original sitting. Am I wasting my time with Picosure or is it possible to remove the original deep black tattoo? If not Picosure what alternatives do I have? Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks,
