Hey all, I just came across this site and like most people here, I want a tattoo gone. I never post on forums but this community seems so positive and welcoming, so I would really appreciate any feedback/knowledge anyone might have had a similar situation.... I have 7 tattoos total and this is the first time I have ever thought of getting a tattoo removed.
I have had it for a little over a year and from the moment I got it, I felt uncomfortable in my own skin. The tattoo was never meant to be so dark and the stencil that was put on looked totally different. I was hoping I would get used to it or it would lighten up but it's actually gotten darker over the last year.
I am extremely unhappy with it to the point where I don't want to wear tank tops or short sleeved shirts.
I have 2 consultations next week. One place uses the PiQo4 laser (estimated $350 per sesh) and the other uses the PicoSure laser.
I have seen a lot of reviews about the PicoSure but I haven't found any personal experiences with the PiQo4 laser from start to finish.
If anyone has any recommendations please share your experience! I would greatly appreciate it!
I want this thing goneee but I don't want to rush into anything and possibly regret it later.
FYI
I have tan skin (if you couldn't already tell by the photo) so my main worry for complete removal is hypo-pigmentation.

First Picosure Laser Session
jaymurphyNovember 19, 2018
Hi all,
Its been a while but I finally got my first session done this Saturday. I’ve attached a progress photo almost exactly 48hrs after the laser session. Obviously the difference won’t be too drastic the first couple weeks but you can see certain spots have lightened up. I will post another progress photo in a few weeks... it’s still very sensitive and in recovery mode.
