7 weeks post treatment 1

Hi all!
It's been quite a while since I last updated, things have been super busy. I also kinda tried to stop looking at my tattoo for a while and stop obsessing over trying to spot some fading haha!
Here's some pics (it's seriously not easy to take a pic of your back) of what it looks like around 7 (I think) weeks after my first treatment. There is a teeny tiny bit of fading, but notging drastic. My boyfriend described it as "more grey" than the sense black it was before.
I've booked my next treatment for the 23rd of April before my exams start. I really hope to see more noticeable fading next time!!
Ps so sorry for the seriously bad photography going on. As I said, it's a really inconvenient part of my body lol!

Sorry I don't have any photos as the tatt is still covered up. I'll update in a few weeks with some progress hopefully!

I'm pretty much at the same stage as you, and mine is just as dense and while my doctor gave me no illusions it would take take he assured me we should be able to clear it up. I am just looking at 15-20 sessions. Still, I paid for unlimited package which means I basically keep going until it's cleared up. Hopefully, you will have success too.

Do you have any photo? Your tattoo is all black like mine, it will be great to see all your progress, good luck ;)

I'm in EXACTLY the same boat, only add six/seven years of bitter regret. I got a huge black star and a sun on my arm aged 19. I turned 29 this year and I'm still losing sleep and feeling physically sick when I have to buy summer clothes. You're not alone. And you're so much braver than I am for going and dealing with it. Good luck and keep us posted :)

First session done!
So I finally took the plunge and got my first treatment. And it REALLY hurt, but it's over super quick. Thank goodness because I dont think I could have taken any more ha!
I went ahead and paid for 6 treatments so that will keep me going for a good while. I really hope i see some good results!
I'm feeling posit
