Bunch of Tatts from Teen Years to Remove - Cincinnati, OH

WORTH IT$750
Hello all, I've been playing with the idea of removing all noticeable tattoos for about ten years. I actually hate them, I got all of them from the ages of 16/18 so naturally their not of the best choices anyway. I have also lost opportunity throughout my life because of them. So now at the ripe young age I've decided to just payup and get it done. As of now I've been through 3 treatments on my left arm with the traditional q switch medlite I believe. My right arm has 3 treatments with said device and one with the newer Picosecond. My first 3 treatments n both arms were painful as hell, no local or cream just cold air and that didn't relieve any pain as far as I'm concerned. I went there because the price and it all seamed good. Well after my package deal ran out I did some research on the area for Picosure and found another place that just got their Picosecond this past January I went in today to consult thinking it was going to cost way more than I'm comfortable spending, but the Dr. hooked me up, $250 right arm $500 left then was willing to give it a go today. Truthfully I was a little nervous because of them not having the laser but a few months, but man I just want these horrid pictures off. Anyway we got right to it, they injected local anesthesia (witch I wasn't aware that was possible) and got right to it. Holy crap I hardly felt it, seriously no pain. No on the other hand the tattoos look worse post treatment than they did with the other laser, I'm hoping it's just because it's different technology and it's working better.Thanks everyone.

Hey thanks Steve,
I checked out your progress quite a few times, your moving right along man.
The tattoos on my fingers are horrible. When I was super young I put a girls name there, we know how that ended up. Then I had the cover up. Worse part about getting them removed is the doc turns the power way down because of blood flow he says. So it looks like that will be the hardest part of the body and take the longest. I have others I'm removing and will be updating progress in a couple weeks when I go back.
Good luck brother.
