Eighth Treatment

Had my 8th treatment about a month ago, actually ended up having one in NY, here are the results.

I know the camera has got the skin colours different, but gives an indication of fading and scaring.

So it's been about 11 weeks since my 7th treatment.  Here is a snap I took today.  Seems to have faded so much since the first one back in Feb 2012, although I still think there are a lot to go. I decided not to have another one until I am back in the Uk in June, this will be leaving about 4 months in between treatments.  I think this is worthwhile to try and let the skin heal, there is a darker tinge around the tattoo that I would like to give a chance to go back to normal colour, not sure if it will, but i'm in no rush so just holding on for the best result.  It takes a long time... think twice if your thinking of getting a tattoo!!!

Laser Tattoo Removal 12th Post

Hi, sorry for lack of posts, I have had another two treatments since my last posting so 7 in total, one additional in November and then again in February this year, and am leaving 10 weeks in between each treatment now.  It has been over a year since I have started having the treatments and still feel there is a quite a long way to go, at least 8 or 10 more treatments.  Getting quite good fading, but still prominent.  Living in the US at the moment and thinking about having an R20 session where they zap it 4 times in a row with a 20 min gap between each.  Apparently this technique gives better fading without any additional scarring.  Will try and book in the next few weeks as it has been about 8-9 weeks since my last treatment back in February.
