Large/dark/dense Tattoo Removal - Guilford, CT

Well yesterday I went for my second consultation. The place has been in business for a year and I expected he would give me a great price due to the lack of years. I looked at the before and after pictures of there work on FB and I noticed a thick black tattoo like mine with great results after two sessions. I also checked out the Rev Lite machine they were using on the internet....which had great reviews btw.
The guy performing the procedure was really nice and made me feel very comfortable. He offered me $600 a session for 10 sessions and the sessions will be broken in two or three depending how much I can take. The deal sounded great, the machine was good and the guy seemed right so I said yes.
He asked if I am mentally ready to start now. I did not think I was but my heart asked what are you waiting for? So, we started.
The pain was extreme! I spent 12 hours in a chair getting inked. I took a break for food and bathroom and that was it. I consider myself to have a solid pain tolerance but this was INSANE! The entire left arm contains all vegan ink...which is carbon. He checked it up before our appointment and his sources said vegan/carbon ink is water based and comes out in 3-4 session. This ink is heavy shaded and takes up half my skin on my left arm. The results are amazing!!! The ink on the top of my arm faded A LOT! The forearm has many blisters right now but the upper arm faded dramatically and only got a few blisters...only one large one. I think the ink responded so well it caused more pain than usual. I really hope next treatment will be less painful due to loss of some ink.
I was in a bit of pain a couple hours after and my inkd areas had swollen up bad but by the end of the night the swollen was down and pain decreased dramatically.
I expected to wake up to much pain this morning but to my surprise pain was minimal. Throughout the day is when my blisters started forming. Some are pretty huge on my left forearm.
My right arm is a few years old on the forearm. It is really black but not vegan ink and not as dense. I noticed the pain on this forearm was manageable and not nearly as bad as the vegan ink but the vegan ink has better results. Don't get me wrong the right arm has faded but not as much as the left arm. Also, the right arms does not have as many blisters. The arm seems to be swollen a little more due to more ink but I just fee the vegan ink responded so well it is only accurate that more blisters will appear.
I got about 1/3 my ink done before he called it quits. The pain was intense and he noticed me turning pale so he said we wil resume the session in three weeks.
I am excited to start this. I believe I took a risk by going with a newer place but because of your comments below, I believe I chose a great place with a way better deal and from what I have seen....he did a great job.
I might put a couple pictures up but I am sorry to say that it is very difficult for me to post unfinished crap ink that is on my body to my review...I hope you guys understand. Either way, pictures will be posted soon enough.
A special thanks to Whiterhyno and Falco for advise that helped get me this far and I hope you keep up with my reviews and give some advice to this noobie when needed.

Today I received a call from a specialist from Waterbury Tattoo Removal. He sounded very friendly and eager to see what I have going on. He told ensured me that he can help and he can help me work on a price. This place has only been open since December and he does not have years and years of pictures and clients...like all new places. I am concerned about going to newer places but I do understand nano is much safer then previous lasers and if he has been doing treatments for almost a year now I think it might be enough for me to try it out. I will meet him next Thursday the 26th to see what he has to offer. I can always start with a sample section and if it is healed in six weeks with no scars then go from there. This is the beginning of my journey, I just wish others would have shared there journey so I can start mine with more confidence but sometimes you got to lead by example and help others who will be in your shoes in the future. Today marks the first day of my emotional recovery, I actually feel better then the last month and I do realize this is a long expensive and painful journey but it is a journey and journeys come to an end. I want mine to end well but only I can determine that...with a couple obstacles along the way of course. I am in contact with another member in my situation and just chatting with him makes me feel better. It only makes me more determined to this now so I can show him and many like us that it is very possible even with a LOT of inkn such as myself. I am still very nervous because every review I read with people looking to remove as much ink as me gave up or stopped posting updates. I think they gave up because of the amount of pain physically maybe even emotionally...maybe BOTH. Either way, off to my second quote and hopefully this place will be it. I want to start the removal as soon as possible but refuse to rush into it like I did with all my ink. Hope everyone is in high spirit today. I will be updating by next week and I will be one step closer to resolution.

While I was with the M.D he told pretty much everything I needed to know. I was happy because he stated that complete removal is very possible but upset because he said all that dense black ink means PAIN and $$$. I was told that picosure is not right for me, they need to go with that standard laser to cover all the space....I guess the Picosure does not shot a very wide beam. The price will be about $900 for a full arm with standard a session.
Now I am left doing research to see if maybe I should try other places. I went to him because of his Picosure now his older laser will still cost me a lot. He was very respectful, knowledgeable and he had a M.D....I also watched him on the news. I guess all that fame would jack his rate up a touch.
There is a new laser tattoo removal place even closer that just opened up a couple months ago. They have many medical certificates from what they show on there website and they are new so offering really good pricing. The place is www.waterburytattooremoval.com I believe. I left them a message and hopefully I will be going there for a consultation as well.
I was wondering if you guys can help give me some advice on where to go from here? Should I schedule many consultations? What should I base my final decision on? Would you guys ever try a new place without a history? I live here in Ct and from what I seen...I do not have many options.
Well, until tomorrow or whenever I make more progress...
