3rd treatment.

$300
The lady decided to decrease the intensity this time due to my pigmentation, which really worried me because I assumed my tattoo will hardly fade and I basically wasted money for that treatment. However, my skin did react better and there was still some mild fading. This is 5 weeks after my third treatment. My next appt is next week and hopefully she's able to intensify the laser this time !

2nd treatment.

Although it's very little fading, you can actually tell a difference between my first and second sessions. The red seems to be super stubborn :( but I'm trying to stay positive and hopefully I won't need more than 8 more sessions with picosure. The pigmentation is slowly going away as well.

Hi! You're right...the purple and green fading was fantastic after that first treatment! It's hard to tell from the picture..but it looks like where the purple was it looks like your actual skin color...like no (or very, very little ink)! It seems the black faded quite a bit, too. Does your dr have access to another laser to treat the red?

The picosure is still picking up the purple ink so hopefully it's done by the next treatment! :)
And no unfortunately he doesn't :(

I have a consultation with Dr. Schwartz later this month and I am stoked! If you don't mind me asking, would you say they charged you fairly? I have a tiny black tattoo but it is brand new and dense. I also know that Picosure is more expensive than the other lasers. Thanks!

I believe it is pretty fair. I expected my tattoo would be worth more, but he decided to charge me $300 per treatment which is their minimum! But if your tattoo is super small, I'm sure he'll charge you less, he's very reasonable.
If you want to know how much your tattoo is worth prior to your consultation, you can text him! That's what I did. His number should be provided on his website :)

Hey thank you for sharing your experience, if you don't mind I have afew questions, how is that you have hyper- hypo-pigmentation all arround your tatto? and not on the tatto? Is that supposed to disappear in the end?

Hi sorry for the late reply! The pigmentation is around the tattoo because there was ink around it as well. It is going away though.

It doesnt discolor your skin though? I'm tan and that's what I'm worried about :(
