Listen to yourself
Don't get a coverup just keep going

Thanks for checking in. I understand that you're feeling confused about what to do next since you are not sure about a cover-up in my opinion you should hold off. You have time to decide, but if you get a cover-up and don't like it then you set yourself back. Besides, I think your fading is going well, hang in there and give yourself more time. 

Thanks for the advices guys. I just don't see any fading from a long time i think the pictures do not represent the reality. Actually I don't trust at all the lasers and i think that they are a huge business . I've never seen a tattoo that black being removed completely, but always people left with something faded scars hypopigmentation and so on.
In addition I didnt mention the pain with this laser is unbearable..
Don't give up my friend, skin requires a long time to clear the pigments, I'm sure we'll make it , maybe in one more year or two, but we'll make it!
Your using the wrong laser I'm also doing laser tatto removal and from some reading and expert opinion from a new technician that is performing laser tattoo removal on me Q plus quanta an Italian laser is the best, the laser does square pulses, find someone that has that laser don't give up.

Wow, this is fading fantastically!!!
well i'm not that sure, i decided to give up for a while because i don't think i'm getting any results. thanks however for the support ;)
Some parts definitely look like they're moving slower, but others have really good fading. It could be good to take a break for awhile though! Mentally and physically !
what lazer was this?
it's the qswitch RevLite Hoya ConBio
Have you noticed scar tissue? Some say that blisters turn into scars. Is it accurate

The doctor keep saying that the sun tattoo will fade by time and that the picosure is not better than the revlite, of course he's pushing his business but i still have no idea if continue or not.
I have a black tattoo on my lower back and I'm being treated with Picosure. It's not a little tattoo, but it's not huge either (about 4 inches in diameter) and there is a lot of very deep, dark ink because it was a lot of line work. That being said, Picosure is working for it. It's close to gone now. My technician says that the bigger the tattoo, the longer it takes to see results because the body has more ink to flush out. I can see fading and you're definitely making progress. Just keep taking pictures because those are the best way to see how far you've come.
thank you very much :)
