I have tried 4 different times to cover this tattoo. It started off as something sorta of small and has grown into a half sleeve that I absolutely hate. My plan is to fade it to where it is almost gone and then do my homework and research and get an amazing artist to put a awesome tattoo over it. Wish me LUCK!

Picosure will elongate the shaded areas easily. The dense black will lighten fairly quickly as well. You will have some problems with the red using the pico, so I bet the dr will use a different laser on that area. Good luck! When is your first appt?

so I have a few more weeks before my consultation and the negativity still lingers around like thick, los angeles smog! I have been so down about it literally since the second I got it done and I am not sure if I can ever trust a tattoo artist again.I can't wait to see what my first session of pico has in store for me!

Oh wow, I am excited to watch your progress!! I also have a cover up I am removing and I am planning my cover up too. It's such a long process, but kinda goes really fast. It's been over 1 year for me since I started treatment. I am on session 9 and I am, I would say...hmmmm maybe 1/2 way done before I can cover...not sure. I'm so excited for you, and so glad you posted your review to show others that anything can be fixed. Here is another great example of how great this process can be Tattoo Removal; Got my Confidence Back! - Jacksonville, FL

I am only two days away from my consultation and I am super stoked to finally hear what the doctors have to say about my tat! I am hoping they say it'll only be 4-5 sessions before I can get it covered. I am already researching tattoers in the Los Angeles area and there are so many excellent artists, it's extremely refreshing. I am currently looking at Jeremy Swan's shop, Broken Art Tattoo, in Los Angeles, CA. Wish me luck everyone!
