Im going for my tattoo removal at the end of this month (3 fist sized black and grey roses going down my arm). In the meantime i want to wear makeup on it to cover it but once i have my treatments can i still wear makeup on it as it will be quite sore, red and itchy.??

R20 is not a new laser. It is a method of administering multiple treatments on the same day spaced 20 minutes apart. This treatment method uses the same Q-Switched lasers and may be able to get your tattoo off in less time.
Was this a cosmetic tattoo used as a lip liner or eyeliner? These inks can contain iron, which will turn darker or gray. It should resolve over multiple treatments, but will be darker in the interim.
Hi Mikela,
I'm sorry you're regretting the tattoo. Fortunately, you can get rid of it! However, I (like the other doctors below) firmly believe that excision is not the best option for you. Why live with a scar in the area for the rest of your life when you could have laser...
