Hi I'm 39 years old and didn't have any tattoos...
Hi I'm 39 years old and didn't have any tattoos tell i turned 34. Got one small one, then my two years later couldn't count how many.... One thing I have to say is most of them do mean alot to me. But my last one is so bad that I'm so depressed, and I even don't want to go out with out it covered up. I was going to get Married last Year, but put it off because if it "sad" pissed with myself... Why I would do this to my body. I started laser tattoo removal just over a year ago. I have had 9 so far & my god it's painful. This week I had laser & asked how more tell to gone, the Lady said 6 more.... Feels like forever. :(

I'm so glad that you've found us and shared your story. I'm so sorry to hear that you're struggling with regret and removal is taking awhile -- I hope that you find lots of support here. Are you only removing the one dark black tattoo? What kind of laser are you using?
p.s. From what I can see, it looks like you have a beautiful lotus tattoo with some nice vine work, would love to see more.

Thank you so much. I'm keeping the lotus. I don't know what kind of laser it is, but I'm really thinking I'm wasting my money. :(

9 treatments
This big black ugly ink. What the hell it is, I have no idea... This is after 9 treatments , very upsetting how long and painful it is. There are some other parts that I'm getting laser on . Will get my boyfriend to take pictures of for you all. Each time I look at myself I am so mad ... What was I thinking, I should have said something " like put the gun down NOW!!!

Are you getting the whole arm done? Also, what laser are you using?

Depending on the laser may determine the effectiveness. If you've had that many sessions, clearly the one that is being used is not the one that you should be using. Try to find facility that is using a picosure or picoway laser. I'm personally using the picoway and have noticed that the black lines on mine are breaking up. I've only had one session though.

Rylee not the whole arm , and I don't know what kind of laser. But I'm so wasting my money:(

Trust me, I know exactly how you feel! Every time I look at my inner bicep tat I get extremely mad at myself... Like why did I go through with this! I use to be very athletic and hit the gym everyday but now I've lost touch with that seeing how I feel like I've ruined my body... I'm hopefully going to be starting laser removal soon and possibly settle for a script cover up if I can't achieve full removal but still it's hard some days... Good luck too you and on your journey. I have a review on here as well if you would like to check it out!! Wish ya the best

This pic is after 9 treatments? Is your laser person doing something wrong, because the good news for you is that black ink is the EASIEST to remove, believe it or not. When I had my tat removed, you could barely see it after the first treatment and the black ink was gone completely. Maybe you should go elsewhere...

I have one treatment left where I've been going. Thank God because I am sick of the pain and not seeing much difference. Really hope anyone can help me find the right place to go. I have spent $700 already for nothing. This summer I'm getting married, that's if this tattoo is gone. I will not put a wedding gown on with this ugly tatt on my arm. I'm so depressed ... Help please
