WORTH IT$540
I was quoted $540 total for the removal. The nurse thinks it should only take 3 sessions because my tattoo was already pretty faded.

On 6/26/15 I had my first treatment. I can already see a huge difference. The nurse put on a numbing cream before using the laser and it took about 2 minutes. It was painful but definitely bearable! It felt like a small rubber band popping my skin over and over really fast.

I go back in 7 weeks for my 2nd treatment.

I agree the fading looks great so far! Black tattoos come out so much easier than colored ones! Wishing you the best, Rose

Today is 5 days after my first treatment. The tattoo is no longer raised and it does not hurt at all. However, it does occasionally itch.

My tattoo always looked darker the first week during healing, I am not sure if I have already mentioned this to you, but Bactine spray works wonders for the itch.

2nd Treatment

Lsmi131
I had my second picosure treatment yesterday. The nurse turned the power up this time since my skin did not blister last time. It felt exactly the same even though the power was turned up. She still feels confident that it can be done in 3 treatments! I go back on September 25th for hopefully my last one.
