I had my second session of tatto removal my first one went great no bleeding or scabing. This second time my whole tattoo seamed to be bleeding in spots all over and there was one spot that had a bit more blood is this normal. The lady said this time the setting was higher should I ask to be done at the original setting from the first time ? Will this mean I will scar and have trouble with the healing for the second time ?
