Treatment 8
WORTH IT
Hi just had a treatment and suddenly remembered that I have not been updating this. It was only yesterday but I’m hoping it’s blasted some of the annoying blue ink away. All the black and orange and purple is gone but there is a lot of Blue left and quite a lot of scarring and a pale ghost image of the tattoo. I will post photos in a few days once it looks a bit less sore.

16 weeks since 6th treatment
I am happy with the way it has faded but have left it longer between treatments as it was hard too see if the tattoo had scarred in places or just the faded.
I am going for another treatment in a few weeks.
Thinking I might need to have a cover up still.?

I think your more at the halfway mark...realistically 10-12 treatments and 2-3yrs is whathe a company suggests for expectations for realistic results. Why cover it up now?

I think you should keep going with removal.. space the treatments apart to give your body more time to heal and be patient (it's what I've learned from reading others reviews) soon I will embark in this journey myself I still have to decide on the laser and provider.

I think you've got good results so far... had you any scar tissue before getting your tattoo removed?

Your tattoo has faded greatly in 6 treatments! How many weeks in between sessions? Do you know which type of laser was used? The black broke up really nicely

Stubborn.......Blue
Hello.its 2 weeks since I have had my 5th treatment so it is still in the fading process.
I am pleased with how the black outline and red/orange have lifted but the purple and blue are being stubborn.
The tattooist has recommended that I start to consider cover up ideas??
They are still saying some of the skin pigmentation is changing?
That it will possibly need to be covered and it will have to be dark and big or colourful to do a good cover up but I do not want that..!!
Not sure what to do now?
Willing to get a cover up if all else fails but like pale shading and subtle colours.?
Feeling quite disappointed and unsure what to do next??

Hey:) Your Tattoo removal Looks realy good!
Don't think that just because the q Switch doesn't remove the Blue of your Tattoo it's impossible at all. There are Other Kinds of Laser that Can solve your Problem. I'm Not sure, but i think the Picosure is pretty good for the Blue ink!
So please, don't get a Cover Up tattoo if you actualy doesn't want it! Guess that will make you as unhappy as before. I think there is no Laser which is good in removing Every Color. So don't give Up! :)

Thank you,it has faded a lot just not as much as I would have liked?
I would like to not have to get a cover up,as they are always big and bold.
Also I am training to work with children and have been getting all my new tattoos on my ribs and back so they are not on show. Will look into pico treatment in my area.

You should definitely try the Picosure on the blue before covering up. There are plenty of places in the UK that use it. You may only need one session to clear the blue. Good luck!

Hi! I've seen a lot of reviews up here that show blue and purple coming out very easily with the picosure! Your tattoo is already very faded, looks great! I'm sure you could go much lighter and hopefully not need a big dark cover up
