Picoway Tattoo Removal

I got his tattoo a little over a week ago and immediately wasn't happy. The placement, size, and overall quality of this tattoo is poor. I feel so unlike myself and can't wait to start the removal process. I have an appointment scheduled for October 17. If I could start today I would but I want to give my self the best chances for a safe, smooth, and successful removal. I never thought I would be in this situation and am so angry that I am. But it'll be resolved soon. There's only one place that offers picoway anywhere near me. From all that I've read picoway is the newest and safest laser to remove a tattoo. I was wondering if anyone has any comments on the picoway? Also my tattoo is a little under 4 inches long and about an inch and a half wide near the top, however it's fairly thin in most places. I've already got a quote for how much it's going to cost. Picoway is more expensive than most other lasers but it's the safest and to get my peace of mind back I will pay the price. So yeah. Any comments or feedback would be much appreciated!

So I went for my first treatment. I didn’t get the numbing cream but the pain wasn’t too bad. I have to keep it covered for a few more hours but I will keep everyone updated. I feel so much better starting this process and am excited to see my results. They quoted me around 11 treatments so we’ll see how it goes. I have a photo from right afterwards that I’ll attach. In the photo it’s frosted over. My second treatment is scheduled for December .

I am in a very similar situation if you are. I got a tattoo about four weeks ago, and immediately knew I was unhappy with the overall quality of the tattoo, and it's placement. I immediately had it deep deep deep regret.

I too have found a place about an hour from me that has a picoway laser. I will likely be going to this place. Mine is all black, but it's similar size and placement. I'll probably schedule my initial consultation soon, and curious to see what type of numbers and treatments they're going to give me.

I’m keeping my tattoo bandaged and hydrated. It’s just a tad swollen and red but it doesn’t hurt at all. I can already see little patches fading. The photos attached I took with a salve on my tattoo.
