WORTH IT$1,500
I got a tattoo about a year ago. The artist didnt do it the way i wanted and i have never been satisfied with it. I never even got it filled in. I finally decided to get it removed. I went for my first treatment on april 27th. It hurt quite a bit! Here i have a before and after picture. You can see there is quite a bit of fading already. The dermatologist says they should be able to completely remove the tattoo with no scarring.

Yes, it was pretty painful.. it hurt more than getting the tattoo. They used some numbing cream, which didn't seem to help, and cold air to numb it. It feels like getting an electric shock repeatedly. It took about 5 minutes.

3 days post second treatment

Heres a pic 3 days after the second treatment. It hurt as much as the first treatment. This time they turned the machine to a higher intensity, but only went over it once. They went over it twice the first treatment. So far, it hasn't faded as much as it did the first time around, but i will keep you posted :)

Getting there! This is a bad angle. Hard to take a pic.

I deleted the picture because this site wouldn't let me crop it, and now I can't delete this post.

Hi
I live in Tampa and I was wondering if you could tell me where you are getting treated. I'm looking for a place to start my removal process as well. Thanks!

Guerra17: I haven't been on here in a while! I'm going to South Tampa Dermatology. They are awesome! You should try them :)
