Can I be getting an allergic reaction to laser tattoo removal? (Photo)

I have been getting laser tattoo removal session for over 6 months. After my fifth session I began getting hives and a rash under and around my tattoo. I didn’t think too much of it and thought it maybe the Neosporin that I have been using. I discontinued using the Neosporin and my doctor gave me steroids to take for a few days. I let the hives and tatttoo site heal and went again for another session. This time it was even worse. Help?!? Could it be The laser sessions itself?
