Tattoo Removal Q&A

I am interested in excision of this tattoo because no one will use the 532nm laser on the red part of my tattoo? I dont mind a scar and am not prone, if ever, to keloids. Would I be able to remove by excision or it is too large. It is the middle of my left arm.

This tattoo seems to have no ink left however you can still see this. I was told it's hyperpigmentation and they can treat it. Is this normal? It took about 13 sessions to remove it. It was black.

Im a healthy, 37 year old female who has had 5 tattoo removal sessions over the last year. The tattoo is on my foot and has had persistent redness. It goes away temporarily after my feet are elevated or I am off them for a while. It gets worse after a hot shower. Its been persistent since the 2nd treatment. Ive stretched the sessions out to 3-4 months in between now. The tech said she thinks it will go away. How can I treat this to ensure its not permanent?

I'm 21 yrs old, female, white, and 5'2 in height. I just recently (as of yesterday) recieved some small hand tattoos. I find myself unhappy with the placement of 3 tattoos and would like to get them removed. They're all black, no color. On my right hand, I want the flower on my ring finger & some words on my hand, under my knuckles, taken off. The same placement is also on my left hand, other words, that I would like taken off.

Id like to look into laser tattoo removal. Im 59 165 lbs fair skinned. This tattoo is 2 months old. Its very scarred up. It was done by a professional.

I just got a small tattoo behind my ear. Im not happy with the placement so I am looking to possibly get it removed. I know there are many factors that go into tattoo removal, but I was wondering if there is any way to get an estimate on how many sessions it would take to remove it. Will it really take up to 10 sessions to remove something so small?

Hello. I have had 15 sessions to remove tattoo with lots of white ink. have not had oxidation until now. session 14 white highlights beginning to darken. expressed concern to tech that maybe i should discontinue treatments and consider a coverup. But he feels we should continue and that oxidized ink will fade with treatments. I am not sold on either. Getting a coverup or treatments. I do not believe this is to get more money from me as i already paid in advance. Picture 3 before oxidation.

I know we don't see a lot of before and after tattoo removal photos because a lot of people give up. But if you keep up with your appointments is it possible to have full removal on a saturated black ink tattoo?

Im a 36-year-old woman in the process of cosmetic ink (microblading) tattoo removal of eyebrows done in 2017 w/ x2 touch-ups. Pigment is inorganic/organic (mostly inorganic); green and yellow bases, some red and little orange. 7-8 treatments w/ Spectra ndyag and Picosure laser; little fading (Spectra majority and Picosure only twice), followed by 4 saline removal sessions. About to see new dermatologist w/ Enlighten Cutera. Thoughts and advice on removal at this point in time? Thanks!

I've had microblading on my eyebrows for 7 years that faded to a greyish color and haven't disappeared. About 6 months ago, I visited a dermatologist who used a laser that I can't remember to do a test spot. The spot darkened and hasn't faded much since then. Is this normal/ok, will further sessions resolve this? I have read that darkening to a black/gray is better than it turning red or yellow or something, but my concern is that it hasn't really faded since darkening.
