Is it harmless to go to the gym after a PicoSure treatment on my upper arm? (Photo)

Question

I have a quite large Tattoo on my upper arm. I love it to go to the gym. My Tattoo is going to be devided in to 3 equal parts otherwise the area would be to large to get Lasered. I'm afraid that when I'm going to the gym after a few days that It maybe can cause scars. Otherwise I read that Sport supports the fading process.

Thank you for your question. Going to the gym during
your laser treatment should not affect your results. On the contrary,
exercising shall help the ink in your tattoo to fade quicker. If you have any
other concerns, please see your treating physician. All the best!

I would let you go to the gym in 72 hours but you may get a different opinion.  Ask your laser doctor to help you.  My Best,  Dr Commons

you may need a light bandage on it for a few days but i don't see any reason why you can't work out. You may not want to sweat profusely over it while it is still raw but you can certainly work out.david berman md
