Hello everyone.
I decided to get my tattoo removed because I can't join the military until I get it off and this is something that I've always wanted to do. Anyway I had my first session last friday. I'm doing the R20 treatments. I have 4 sessions in one sitting and have to go back every 90 days for the next 4 sessions. So I will keep y'all updated! : )

7 Months After Laser Tattoo removal
Hello everyone,
I'm posting this review now because I needed an update. I originally got my first "set" of laser treatments "R-20 Method" in Mid June. I was supposed to go back the end of September for my second set of treatments, but I ended up canceling that appointment.
As you can see in the photo below and in the previous post that I have a rose on my hand. I was looking for a faster way to get it removed. So when I went to the business I decided that I would go with the R-20 Method. This method is supposed to fade the tattoo much faster than a standard session because you're getting four treatments in one sitting. So after discussing it they "claimed" that after one treatment I should she 50% or more fading, which was not the case. They were friendly and all, but I ended up wasting my money in the end. So I found a different place (with better reviews) and I'm going to give them a try sometime this month. I'll check back in then.

Hi there, can I please ask who you went to originally? I'm looking at the picosure treatment myself and want to consider everything...

Currently with these lasers tattoo removal is a hard long process. It took me a while to accept that, when i first looked at removal i was interested in the r20 method but all i could find was there wasnt much of a difference with increased risk of scarring. Not worth it. I have been treated with the quanta plus c laser a large dark tattoo and have around 70% clearance after 8 sessions. Now the end is close, i couldnt care less about a slightly quicker more expensive method or laser

Thank you and yeah I agree. The slower process will probably give better results anyway
May I ask that you update your review with a few more details:
Does your tattoo have color in it?
How old is your tattoo?
What laser are you being treated with?
Any photos to share?
Thanks so much :)
Thanks!
