Will anxiety/depression medication affect tattoo removal healing process?

blueboy123
I’ve had 1 treatment of laser tattoo removal a week ago and have just been prescribed antidepressants and anxiety medication, more specifically Sertraline and Gabapentin. If I start taking these will it affect the healing process or have any effects on future treatments?
