It’s been a while - here are some belated updates from Treatment 3 as Treatment 4 approaches...
scalvareseFebruary 5, 2018
It’s still going...I mean - sessions are mildly painful. I’m still waiting roughly 8-10 weeks between sessions to maximize fading (and hopefully minimize the number of overall treatments I will need in total.) I tend to get tiny blisters, but healing isn’t too bad...I bruise more than I blister, if that makes any sense...next Treatment is coming up Feb 17th (will be Tx #4). I’m seeing lots of line breakup on the flower tattoo for sure.

I go to Ethos in Summit, NJ (near NYC) - they have a Picosure. I’m getting great results. I haven’t posted an update in a while.

I think they have before and aftershock on their webpage. They had a book I looked at when I went for my initial consult as well, but here’s the thing, everyone responds differently to laser treatments. It’s a combination of a lot of things. For instance, people always post photos of the huge blisters they get post treatment. I don’t get those. I get little tiny blisters. I will post an update next week right before I go in for my next treatment.

Also - I don’t know if your tattoo is colored or not, but they have attachments for the picosure to treat colors.

Second treatment
scalvareseOctober 13, 2017
So, the second treatment hurt more than the first one. My doctor cranked the laser up. This time we also used the hand piece for red ink (meaning we did multiple passes over the tattoo). It’s healing well - no scarring or anything. Overall my experience has been really good, and I’m already seeing a good amount of breakup in certain areas on my tattoo.
