8th treatment Q switch

S
Salut
WORTH IT$200
I am losing patience. The clinic where I usually go for the picosure is having issues with the laser. They dont seem to want to resolve the issue either. I'm finding it hard to believe in there profesonalism. They say they're not sure when or if the laser will be replaced or repaired.
So, I went and paid triple the price at another clinic and it was a Q switch laser. Everything went well, but I dont ant to pay the extra money as I had an agreement with Les Cours Medical.
The treatment went as usual. Painful, blistering and about a week to have my skin be bare. At the stage I'm at, I'm actually thinking of having a tattoo put over it. The cost, the pain and my immune response after having the treatments are discouraging.

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.

I had issues with the same clinic they didn’t honour our agreement and had to pay 400$ for another clinic. But they gave me lifetime treatments for my tattoo. It’s called star laser and they use the enlighten, a consult wouldn’t hurt if you want to do a patch test with them and see how your tattoo responds. Best of luck to you

Hi
I haven't updated in a while... had my 7th treatment 1.5 weeks ago. Ilove the results. A few more and I will be tattoo free!
I've been using emla cream and it helps with the pain. What a difference????

7 wks into my 5th treatment.
Everything went as usual. I don't see much change since the last session. A little ink had faded but not as I expected. I'm getting impatient! Lol

do you still have free treatments after the 6th treatment? and great fading even if you are impatient, I think it really is great fading :) I have a HUGE mistake on my chest and it's really ugly too. Only outline so I think I can get full removal, at least I hope. but hey don't give up! You've got it!

Yes! That was their gaurantee. If it wasn't all gone by the 6th the rest of them would be free.

They do change their staff often, but I've never had any problems. They've always been professional.

Be Patient!
I saw a lot of change even in the third and fourth month After Treatment with Pico and Enlighten. The Body needs Time to carry away so much ink.
