Day 2
So, today the soreness is to a minimal level. The tattoo is a bit irritated with some light redness. I have to admit the color purple on the tat is almost completely gone after one treatment. Wow! However it was a very light purple, so maybe that helped. I will add another pic at a week point to see progress. So, far feeling hopeful!
Hello there, If you are reading this it's most...
Hello there,
If you are reading this it's most likely that you are thinking of removing a tattoo. And, like many that decide to go for it, you are seeking more info on procedure and cost. I found this forum very helpful when I was desperately seeking real people sharing their story from beginning to end, while finding a professional place with the latest laser technology; which is why I decided to pay it forward with sharing my story. So, far I have had two encounters in Sac and I couldn't be more pleased. Today was day 1 of the Pico Sure laser treatment. I am a bit sore, but the procedure was very quick! And, so I am hopeful and motivated to see what the process will be. Amanda, at the office, did the 1st treatment and she was amazing!! When I went for consultation the first time, she told me to think about the removal before I decided to go forth with it. She was very patient and knowledgeable. I liked that she wasn't pushy and answered all my questions. And, when I saw Amanda the first time, it was shortly after I had gotten the tattoo. To be clear, I love tattoos. And, this tattoo quote is very dear to my heart...there's a whole personal story behind it, which is why I had mixed emotions when I entered this journey. I do have a couple other very small tattoos that I am keeping. The reason for this removal, is all me, I should have gone with my gut of going very small in size and font, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out as small as I had envisioned. The tattoo artist actually did previous tattoo work on me and I absolutely love the piece he did, it is actually my favorite. But the one I am removing is a bit more visual than what I expected. I am hopeful that once I go through the laser removal process that I can have a clean canvas, although I know there are no guarantees it will. So keeping fingers crossed, so here goes my 1st pictures before the Pico treatment. I will post one tomorrow after 24 hours have gone by. I hope that you find my journey helpful as you decide to enter yours.
