Rash

byetattoo
Hey, I have this rash around the tail. Its not spreading quickly or super itchy but I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and has any advice as to how to treat it?

Hey, that looks possibly like some kind of allergic reaction to the ink maybe? Have you gotten in touch with your service provider to let them know? They should be able to advise. I'd give them a quick call perhaps. Hope it disappears soon!

I also had some bumps pop up a couple weeks after my first treatment, but it was nothing like what you have, it was itchy, and it went away in about a day. I'd definitely call your doc as an infection is also a possibility.

3 weeks Post 2nd Treatment

byetattoo
So here are the pictures for 3 weeks after my 2nd treatment. There are kind of a lot but I think its helpful to zoom in on the areas where I see line breakup to show where the change is really happening. Its still just small changes but definitely encouraging to see some breakup. My skin reacted more this time and I got bit of a rash around the area as you can see. Besides that it seems mostly healed up and I was hoping to go to my next treatment in around 10 days so I'll have left a month between treatments. We'll see how that goes though.

Second Treatment Done

byetattoo
Hey all,
I had my second treatment done the 15th. I went to Clean Slate Laser in White Plains. It was a good experience, she was quick and nice. The price was significantly cheaper than the other places I've gone and she's been very responsive through email if I've ever had any questions (even when I was just thinking about going there).
She put the laser up and it hurt more but I saw more line breakup right after. It's still healing but I'll put up some pictures soon.
