took a long break

The longest break I have taken now has been 5 months. I do see better results, plus I've been trying to work out a lot and drinking a ton of water. I have only finished 4 treatments with picosure in a span of about a year, but I believe if you rush you're just wasting away your money. Looking at other persons results, I can tell my tattoo is more stubborn and it's going to take a while. I won't give up

Thanks for posting your review! I recently heard about the Picosure and was very skeptical that it would show that amazing of results but it is doing very well for you!

Your little star is almost completely gone! Hey, did you private message me a question? I tried to answer someones question on my phone but it didn't work! =/

hey, how long have you been waiting between treatments? have you done 8 for all treatments? I'm in a rush since I'm traveling soon so I'm trying to have mine as soon as they're healed, which has really been after 4 weeks for me. Have you noticed it continue to fade after 4?

H eyy yes you can get treatments every four weeks, but what I have noticed is that the longer you wait is best and you will see optimal results. The longest I waited was about 5 months now. Ik it sounds ridiculous, but in the end you are saving a ton of money. If you are in a hurry for your trip then I would do every four weeks. Sorry I haven't been on here for a while. Have you gone on your trip yet? Good luck! Ttyl
