Treatment 2 - Immediately after

$400
Holy crap. So I went for a full hour this time so we could use injectable lidocaine and it definitely made a difference during the treatment. I could talk with the tech and the pain was more than bearable. The problem is, now almost 2 hours after I am still in searing pain. I would put the pain at 8 or 9 out of 10 for the first hour and now a 5-6 almost 2 hours after. I unwrapped and photographed, added more Vaseline, and rewrapped. I'll let you all be the judge, but the appearance definitely conveys the residual pain.

Pleeeaaaaseee update!
My treatments were temporarily put on hold due to a nasty sunburn and time / money constraints. I will update this after the next treatment, which I hope to resume in the coming months.

Treatment #2

I go back today for another treatment. I booked a whole hour instead of 45 minutes so there will be time to let the injected lidocaine get to work. Good fading with the first session and I'm very hopeful the 2nd will be just as effective.

Just over a week. ..

So after a long fight with some pretty gnarly blisters, and after the insane ouch of the procedure, I can already say this is totally worth it! I ended up skidding down a hill and landed on a blister in jeans while moving, so that area is really scabbed, but the healing seems to be progressing fairly well!

Nice fading, thank you for sharing. :)

Wow that fading on your black wrist tattoo gives me so much hope for my new one I want gone and it makes me want to go asap!! Wow that fading looks awesome. How old was that tattoo?
The wrist tatto was purple with black outline, about 8 years old. Nearly all the black is gone after the 1st session and really almost all that's left is the purple.
Thanks for the info!!
