I'm doing full body SHR. will the treatment remove my tattoo? I want to get rid of it (I am aware that the laser light recognizes only pigment not the hair itself!). it does hurt in my tattoo area but it's tolerable. The tattoo hasn't changed significantly after the treatment. It didn't scar or blister, only had slight redness. Shall I proceed with the treatments over my tattoo or quit it? the pause between the sessions is 2-3 weeks, i have 5 sessions left. Is that too aggressive for the tattoo?
