Regretting Tattoo Cover Up - Edmonton, AB

I love this site, reading all the reviews about the picosure helped me with my decision to try and get this removed. I am concerned with getting rid of the orange and yellow which I've read is hard to remove with the laser. I know the purple and blue will respond really well. I had my first treatment today and we only started on the top part to see how the orange and yellow will respond. The pain was waaaaaaaaay less than what I expected from what I read on this site. Although I did use numbing cream so maybe that was why. I started taking a herbal product called lymphstream to help with the circulation in the lymphatic system so that it will help move the ink through, so hopefully that helps with the removal. Thank you for everyone's posts it is very inspiring and supportive. I will post some pictures after a few days and once it has healed to see how much fading has occurred on the top part.

So it's two days after my first treatment and I woke up this morning with pain and swelling. No blisters have formed, but my lower back is really swollen, has anyone experienced this? I'm also really tired, but I think it's just from the initial shock. I have lots of fading in the blue and purple, and actually I think the yellow is also fading. The black lines have not budged, but I'm sure it takes time and more treatments for those. I will post pics once healed to show before and after.

Day 3 and the swelling has gone down, I stopped putting polysporin on it this evening. I do see fading in the yellow and orange, but maybe I'll be able to tell better when I see the pictures side by side. Once again, when it's fully healed I will post a before and after pic.
