Its going to hurt...

I have just booked my next appointment in a couple of weeks time this will be my 4th. I had a break of roughly 8 months between sessions because of travelling and being exposed to sunlight. I am worried about the pain and blisters since they really get me down for a whole week but I am happy to see the change after 3 sessions. The grey shading is completely gone, time to tackle the black. Wish me luck.

1st treatment done
VladMichalSeptember 6, 2014
After much hesitation I finally had my first treatment done. It got a bit delayed due to my holidays in Cyprus. I went into the clinic with the idea of only having the black shading around the roses done since I did not know how painful it was going to be. In the end I went for the whole thing. The treatment really hurt, I think it is even worse that getting the tattoo done. Im dreading the next appointment in two months time. My chest was very swollen a day after the treatment and also the area with the dense black in has blisters everywhere.

After consultation

I had my consultation yesterday, I was told about the pain and the cost and been given an estimate of 4 sessions in order to remove the tattoo, which I think is way too optimistic. I can not have my treatment just yet since my tattoo is only a month old so I will have to wait at least another month before I can begin. I was told about the pain and the blistering after each treatment which got me worried in case I went for a full tattoo removal. I am booked in for the 12th august although I might have to move the appointment to september since I am going on holiday in the end of July and there s a recommended 4 weeks of no exposure to sun before treatment. I am also thinking of removing or fading out the dense black fading around the tattoo and see how that goes rather than removing the whole thing and having blisters all over the chest.

I have bed going to trueskin for picosure and had 5 treatments. I've been really pleased with my results however think 4 treatments is optimistic. I would suggest their picoplan as that way you can keep going back for more until it's gone. Don't worry about the pain. The first one hurt but was more the unknown and I did blister badly but each session has got easier and lest blistering to the poi t where my last two treatments I didn't blister at all. Good luck

Hey! Laura at harley street is great! The pain does hurt on your chest however no pain no gain! You do feel [RS bleep] i felt like it for about a year now and i never felt anything like it before panic attacks the lot but now i think [RS bleep] it get it sorted and carry on theres plenty of people worse off! Deffo go for the picoplan how ever i think you should consider only removing some of it because personally its a [RS bleep] wicked tattoo and i would deffo point it out if i saw it
Lifes to short to worry

It annoys me when they say you only need 4 treatments (I was told I needed 3) and I'm on my 7th and STILL a long way to go. Definitely double, if not treble what they suggest (that's just my opinion of course). Good luck !

Hey Vlad. Sorry to hear about your tattoo regret. If you get a couple of moments, take a look at my review. I've had 14 q-switched treatments and I've decided to try Picosure next month to really speed things up. I was actually looking at Harley Street first but decided to go with ResetRoom in Soho (about 20 mins away) as they were much friendlier and cheaper as well. Have you checked them out by any chance? Will be really interested to see how your first session goes either way!
