WORTH IT
I got a tattoo a little over a year ago and immediately regretted it. I've had 7 treatments and the doctor told me it could take up to 20. I really shooting for full removal. It seems to keep fading after every one. I'm hoping in another year it will fade a lot more. Its a large piece on my forearm so I am forced to wear long sleeves now. Im am used to the pain of the procedure so that doesnt bother me.

That is great fading. Imagine how much more it's going to fade out, esp if you go to 20 treatments. I'm very interested to see how many treatments it will take to be gone entirely, I just had my 5th session, so 2 behind you, and that question is on my mind. It's great to have those pre=treatment pics because sometimes you forget what it looked like before.

Got half sleeve on upper arm arch angel Michael slaying saten, but just the devil is exposed when wearing short sleeves ... so taking the devil out and replacing with clouds to shorten it up. Expose when I want to expose my ink. ;-) first lazer done a month ago. Still looks like i have a tan around ink thats left ...i totally hear you and understand about the imiedate regret. O well live and learn

Amazing results! I have a tattoo in the same area, thicker black linework but it's also slowly fading. hoping for full removal like yours! Cheers!

hey do you have any photos to share so we can see how your progress is going?
February 27, 2018
I'm not planning in sharing my process yet because I'm friends with the tattoo artist and didn't want to make it too public. Sorry about that.

THIS LOOKS AMAZING!! You had it all done by this doc? I'm about 3hrs away from him and highly considering him. What do you think? I have a very similar tattoo to yours. All dense black, some white.

Not all with this doctor. I need to change it. I ended up going to Go! Tattoo removal in Allentown pa. I went to three different places and they are by far the best. Very friendly and they know what they are doing

They're way closer to me!! I was looking at them as well. Thank you thank you THANK YOU for replying ! I've been having a really really hard time looking at myself with this tattoo and your pictures give me SO much relief.

Wow, this is incredibly inspiring! For someone that completely new at this would you recommend a certain laser?

They used the Pico and the q switch. All depends on the color of your tattoo for which one they would use. The Pico laser does colors much better then the q switch. But the q switch is great on black ink
