WORTH IT

I had a large star shaped tattoo on my lower back that I regretted getting the moment I left the studio almost 20 years ago. When I heard about the PicoSure laser and the reduced number of treatments it would take (vs. the previous technology), I decided to give it a go. I could not be more happy with the results. The progress was apparent after each session and the time it took to heal between treatments was minimal. The ink was very bold and deep in my skin, but the laser took care of it! I am glad I got the treatments and I am glad that the tattoo is GONE!

@byetattoo -- It took just over a year, but I am sure it could had been faster if I regularly went back every 4-6 weeks, rather than in irregular intervals.

Holy smokes this is amazing. That ink was really bold. How many sessions did you have? What did they treat the red with?

It was 9 sessions total -- and you are right it was bold! The red was treated with the same laser -- they were surprised how well the red ink reacted to it. If anything it worked really well as some of the natural pigment is gone now, but I am told it will come back over time.

I love seeing this! I am also being treated at Phx Skin and very happy with my results so far. It has been just at a year, but taking a break for pregnancy.

Congrats! Well done!! Did you use only the picosure? Asking for the black ink

Thank you! I am very glad it is gone. Yes, it was just the PicoSure laser. The black ink reacted well to it, but maybe because it was really bold and deep!

very nice to see an end result. It takes time. Like the others, how long did this take?
