What laser are you using?
Been using Q-switched, which has been very slow results. Going to switch to pico-way laser now.
Hi! I've only had 2 removal treatments on a new tattoo (Picosure). Mine is about the same size as yours but no color. I'm deciding whether to move forward with removal. Your story scares me!! I'd be out of patience, too. I bet the Pico will work better for you! Please continue to post your progress!! I'm following your experience :)
I hope you have more luck than me! I think my tattoo is very stubborn don't let it put you off but it is such a long process. Recently had a picoway treatment will upload pictures soon. Good luck with your removal :)
I want mine removed but it's the cost involved too :(
Updates?
I had a long break, was unmotivated by the lack of progress. I’ve now had 19 treatments. I will post some pictures soon not much has changed though :(

Tattoo removal progress
Sometimes you've got to remember how far you've come. Original tattoo (best quality I have seeing as I hated it from the start not many pictures haha) - and now 14 sessions later. It will get there ...

Have you thought about taking more time in between sessions or a different laser? It has definitely faded!
I have tried picosure laser before but didn't see dramatic results for the price, atm I'm paying £60 a treatment in my town rather than £200 and £50 travel to London per treatment for a different type of laser. I have waited longer in between treatments but I'm inpatient now :(
I completely understand. I am only 4 sessions in and I am over it!
Hello, I would try a couple of more treatments with picosure before dismissing it completely. They usually start at a lower setting to se how your skin reacts and the they can boost it up for the the next treatment. So I would definitively recommend 3 treatments at the same pico-place in order to give the laser a fair try. I know it is expensive but I am confident that it will work wonders on your tattoo. Good luck
I have had 4. I am going to stick with it. I am just over this whole removal. It is depressing. I just had a treatment and it doesn't look like any fading happened at all.
Thank you, you are probably right. I shall save up and give picosure another go in the new year, just hate the amount of money it costs but people do seem to have better results with it. But i'm sure my tattoo is just so stubborn. Thanks for the advice tho!
Yep it is so frustrating when you just want it gone! 16 in and still such a long way to go!
