Hey everyone, I'm here for an update on my 3rd treatment I had may 15th. I'm healed now but there was some blistering. But this time I noticed wasn't as severe. The green is completely gone and even the yellow is disappearing

The green faded great! Do u have anymore recent pics? I just recently got a huge tattoo with a green background. I despise it. Just worried how the green is going to lift when I get it removed

I was wondering how you were doing, thanks for coming back to give us an update. Your fading is coming along nicely, what kind of lasers were used?

yesterday i had my first procedure done. i first one say i thought 100% the laser wouldnt hurt and oh my sweet lord was i wrong. it was terrible! but like everyone says, it does only take a minute or so.

the reviewer that said the laser obliterates green pigment is absolutely correct.

after my session, the pain i felt was like a bad burn but after an hour, i couldnt feel anything besides a dull ache. i only formed a few small blisters and overall im very optimistic :)

my next apt is November 16!

I feel like I'm reading my own thoughts after reading your post. I just got a tattoo on Sunday and there are moments where I love it and it feels ok, but most of the time I'm in total regret. It's way too large and I have it on my forearm, which makes it visible to all 15,000 people that work in my corporate office setting.

I was told that I had to wait SIX MONTHS before I can begin treatment since it's a new tattoo. I assume this wasn't the case for you...? Do you mind sharing how long you waited for the process to begin and what they told you in the consult?
