ORIGINAL POST

I had a tattoo on my hip that I liked; just didn't...

Salut
WORTH IT$200
I had a tattoo on my hip that I liked; just didn't like the placement. In order to have a successful cover-up, it had to be bigger and shaded. I was clear on not wanting it to turn out being a dark piece and it looking tribal. 3 hours and 300$ later it was huge, black and very tribal looking. It's got to go! I did my research on the diffrent laser's and the best success rate. So here I go with Picosure. I was garanteed full removal, no scarring and in 3 to 6 sessions; after the 6th session if it is still aparent they will finish it for free. I've had one session and I am amazed at the difference already. You be the judge!!

My first review was true until my 7th treatment.... Then the laser broke down and there is no replacement or repairs in sight. I've called every month for the past 6 months and they keep giving me the run around. ✔ the staff at Les Cours Médical are very knowledgeable. Every question I asked was answered and I never felt rushed or insecure about their capability's. The clinic is set in a very professional environment and the price is more than fair.

2nd picosure treatment

Salut
I had my first session 8 months ago, I didn't plan for the sessions to be so spread out but it is what it is. The second treatment was pretty much the same except for the area near the hip bone. Which was agonizing for about 45 sec. Afterwards was very differen. I had the sensation of my nerves being hyper active. I imagine thats the body's way of healing it's wounds. It latest an hour or so and was painful.
Afterwards, I had some discomfort but nothing to cry about.
As you can see in the pictures I have a significant amount of blisters that I didn't have the first time. I was told it was normal as they turned up the intensity of the laser.
I will post more pics as the days and weeks go on.

I just had my second treatment and they turned up the laser also. I'm 6 days post and it peeling. The skin under is pink and shiny. I was scared it was going to scare but after seeing your pictures it gave me some comfort that it will be fine and its normal. Thank you!

Hi your tattoo has faded a lot with only one session I'm very impressed. I've done around 3 picosure sessions and other 6 procedures prior with the regular laser and it still has a lot to go. I'm thinking they're stealing my money. How much did you pay for your sessions? I'm paying $200 per sessions in Toronto

Hi
I'm at my 5th... I will upload a fresh picture. It is 185 per session here in Mtl.

Do u know what potency do they use? I believe they were using a low potency on my treatments that's why I didn't see much difference
