Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Technician lasered too much skin
I went in for my tenth treatment yesterday.
Everything has been going well so far, I was hoping that it would be completely gone by now, but I am still seeing progress.
The technician yesterday did a horrible job. It hurt worse than it ever had which was unusual because the pain had been decreasing.
This morning when i took the bandage off and looked in the mirror, I couldn't believe what I saw. Rather than running the laser over the tattoo, she just lasered a series of stripes in the area of the tattoo. The stripes extend beyond the tattoo and the area of the tattoo that is between the stripes was untouched by the laser.
I am freaking out and waiting on a call from the office - it's been an hour and I have not received a response.
What is going to happen to the skin that is tattoo free after being zapped with the highest settings possible?? Is it going to leave a burn or is the skin going to lose all pigment?

Just completed third treatment
Just got done with my third treatment. It was pretty typical. Here are my photos for comparison. She said at the next treatment she's going to add a boost feature which should expedite the process. Can't wait to be rid of this thing.
Pic from before first session and another pre second session
Just got done with my second session - I didn't really think that much change had been made until she showed me a photo from before my first session and how it looked before my second session - it has faded considerably. She turned the laser up this time and said that this time the laser will break it up into twice as small of particles. It hurt but was totally bearable and the pain stops when the laser stops. I have high hopes to be rid of this thing!
