6 months after third picture treatment

I just had my fourth treatment today, and I realized I never posted a results photo from my third treatment. The attached photo was taken this morning before I headed out for my treatment. This shows the tattoo about 6 months after my third picture treatment. The results are not as pronounced as they were after the first couple of treatments, but I'm still pleased with the results. I'll post a photo of results from the fourth treatment in a few days.

I've had a great experience with them for picosure laser tattoo removal, and I'm considering having some age spots on my face removed with a laser also.

This one was the easiest so far. I made a better effort to keep my ankle elevated as much as possible for a couple of days, and I had very little swelling and blistering this time.

22 weeks after 2nd treatment

crikkit73
I'm finally heading out for my third treatment, 22 weeks after my second treatment! I had a really tough time getting the skin to heal this time. As you can see, it's still a bit inflamed. It still itches like crazy. After about 8 weeks I went to the doctor to make sure I didn't have an infection. There was no infection, and they prescribed a steroid cream that was stronger than the over-the-counter stuff I was using.

I'm hoping I can get it to heal better this time by applying the prescription steroid cream earlier when the itching starts. I expected to be done with my treatments now that warm weather has arrived in Houston!
