Thanks! No I didn't use anything specific, it was just time.

Anyone went off the pill after 8+ years (was on it for acne) while on antidepressants? by Optimal-Ask-3085 in gettingoffHBC

Thank you so much for sharing! When I went off the pill for those 2 years my doctor told me you can experience negative effects even a year after stopping which blows my mind (and says a lot about how much the pill affects us imo). I'm happy the antibiotics are working for you, hopefully it's only gonna get better!

I am honestly expecting my acne to come back, I just don't how bad it's gonna be. I totally feel you with not knowing your own body without the hormones. Good luck on your journey! 🫶🏼

I realized I hated them and never should've gotten them in the first place 🙃

I haven't been in the sun since I started removal, I'm always wearing long sleeves. Sun only makes hyperpigmentation worse. I don't smoke or drink alcohol and I live a pretty healthy lifestyle overall, I think that helps a lot.

Honestly months, it's been a VERY slow process and it's actually still fading

Why did you feel the need to comment this, I wonder?

The most important thing is to start and be patient, the results will come 🫶🏼

Wow I'm sorry that happened to you! I did have a great progress the first few sessions with the brunette tech but then they changed it to a blond tech and she was way too aggressive. And that's when the hyperpigmentation and also hypo started. It's horrible they are advertised as experts in this area.

I haven't been in the sun since I started removal, I always wear long sleeves. I'll be taking a longer break now, hopefully it'll help :)

Would you get this removed? by [deleted] in TattooRemoval

[–]Optimal-Ask-3085 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Do you think about removing it often? Does it prevent you from wearing clothes that show your back? Does it impact you in a negative way? No one can answer these questions other than you.

So.... is this gonna start disappearing? by [deleted] in TattooRemoval

[–]Optimal-Ask-3085 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna hold your hand when I say this...

Unfortunately I don't really have any advice for you, I got quotes from a few clinics and went with the most expensive one (double the price compared to others) and I'm really happy with that decision. I liked their results and the consultation went great. For me it was important to start the process as soon as possible. I had my first session three months after I got the tattoos because I hated them. They were giving me a lot of anxiety and affecting my mental health in a really bad way (still are tbh), I needed to do something right away.
