I have had 7 treatments of Picoway and got great fading in the beginning, but the results lately have been less noticeable since there are less ink left. I have noticed that the skin around my tattoo gets whiter that my skin elsewhere when the nurse wipes off the Emla before treatment and was wondering if it will reduce the effect of the laser? My tattoo is big and I'm not sure if I'll be able to tolerate the pain without the cream, but maybe I could only put cream on half of it? Other options?
