I have a tattoo that was not finished and not going to be for many reasons and so I chose to have it removed. It went from just underneath my breast down my ribs and onto the top of my thigh. I did ALOT of research on different lasers and doctors. I ended up driving 2 hours each way for the one I chose. I used BLT (numbing cream) and ice which helped a lot. I wanted to also use the DeScribe patch, however, my tattoo was too large for it ???? My consultation and first session were done same day. They walked me through everything. Took pics. I felt very at ease when it started. The feeling itself was nowhere near what I expected. I may have a high pain tolerance there since the tattoo itself wasn't too awful for me either. But all in all I am very pleased so far. I am tender, red, and swollen but like I said I just had it done this morning. I will update over the following weeks tho.

I will say so far I haven't experienced any pain. I have been extremely uncomfortable. I had a slight reaction from the tape I was using to secure my bandage. I was told my skin is probably just hyper sensitive due to the recent laser treatment so I am trying some paper tape and cloth tape now. I have gotten slightly more bruising and redness but no blistering. Overall, I feel it's better day by day. I am seeing some fading already as well. I go back for my next treatment on June 2. I will continue to post updated pics.

After changing to paper tape I am feeling SO much better. My itching has subsided and my overall comfort level has increased. Except for the bandages on my side and thigh I don't even notice a difference at this point.
