$1,000
After 7 sessions lase q switched and 6 picosure my damn tattoo is still present. I'm depressed and hopeless. I do not know what to do.
A doctor suggested I try QUANTA SYSTEM DISCOVERY PICO but I'm afraid it's yet another disappointment. What can I do?

Hey:) I'm sorry, that your fading is so Slow... But your Tattoo faded a lot. I think you Are Almost there.
I had my consultation for the Picosure And cutera enlighten about 2 weeks ago. They also tried both Lasers on my (Mostly Black and orange) Tattoo and i'm Impressed how much better the enlighten Laser works than the Picosure. There ist fading After both Lasers, but the enlighten works so much Better for me. Maybe this Could be an Option for you? I Think its not only good on Black but also on red, orange and yellow.
I Wish you good Luck for your removal! Don't give Up!
Sorry to hear you're not happy with the results. It must be really tough for you?

I've just started Q Switch (first session) and I can see a little fading but it's not getting me down as much as your's sound like its getting you down.

I'm going to try 3 or 4 Q sessions and then depending on the results take a look at moving to Pico. How was the pain with the Pico? Any different from the Q?

Keep at it I'm sure that you'll be happy with it soon. Keep smiling.
I think you're making great progress. I hope my tat looks this faded after 6 PicoSure treatments. You're almost there. Stay up!!

two days ago I did a treatment laser tattoo removal with picosure , today my tattoo is very red and blisters. it's normal? blisters must be broke?

Sometimes some people get pretty big blisters, and sometimes some people get none at all. (Or in my case, tiny ones.) So far from your picture it doesn't look abnormal.

one month later with Laser qswitched revlite

here I am after a month from the first session with the laser Revlite ... what do you think ? There are high hopes ? I would like to see disappear immediately . How many sessions do you expect me yet ? finger cross.
I think I'll wait a month before making my second session ..

After any first session most people experience little-to-no fading. You have some fading from that last session, CONGRATS. I just had my first session about 2 months ago and I have no discernible fading, boo. lol. So we know the laser you are now using is working. -- Nothing is for certain with the # of sessions, especially since everyone is different. If I had to guess I would say the black would fade substantially in 8 to 15 sessions, the red I am not sure about. (Haven't done much research on colors.)
Finger cross!!!
