WORTH IT
After 7 yag laser treatments with little result, I decided to get a red tattoo on my shoulder excised. Dr. Redstone planned a staged excision requiring 3 procedures that will leave me with a single line scar. The procedure is done in office under a local anesthetic, each surgery spaced out over a few months. Elective cosmetic surgery is more extreme than I was hoping for when I decided to get this tattoo removed, but I think it would have taken 10 years to get rid of the red tattoo at the rate it was going - now it will be gone completely in a matter of months.

Welcome to the community, I am thrilled that you decided to share your story with us. Do you have any photos to share with us, we would love to see the tattoo before excision and progress photos.

I am looking to get this procedure done. How did your scar heal? We’re you happy with the result at the end ?
