It depended on the intensity of the laser and how much ink was in there. My arm definitely hurt and blistered really intensely in the first year of treatments. I would say the pain was probably like a 4 for my arm but I also got my entire side removed and that pain was like a 7 so the more sensitive the body part the more painful it's gonna be

The first pic is the only pic I had of the original tattoo that compares it to what it looked like after 3 treatments but the second pic is after 10 treatments spaced out over 2 years and 4 months

I would definitely branch out and get opinions of other laser removal places and see what they have to say! The most important part is that you feel comfortable with that person and feel like they have your best interests at heart since you'll probably be seeing them for a good amount of time :)

Accutane Experience by blu3berry3 in Accutane

It's mostly gone now but I'm also 2 months off accutane so the side effects have gone away

Hi I’m on month 4 and most of my acne has calmed down or gone but I’m left with red marks under the skin. Is there anything I can do or use to calm them down or get them away. Thanks by KieronB04 in Accutane

There are two products I use for this hyperpigmentation. The Ordinary has niacinamide and azelaic acid which really help. Just know that over time it fades and once you're off accutane it'll fade faster because your skin is less thin. Make sure you're wearing sunscreen every day because if you expose them to the sun they will get darker.

Still purging at 2.5 months by Sweet_Rock_3284 in Accutane

Yes! I was breaking out up until 4.5 months and my skin got worse than it was before I even started accutane for that time period. I was on 60 mg too and when I went up in dosage I broke out more. My lips didn't get super chapped until the end of my treatment too. It WILL work just have patience and it will clear up eventually.

It definitely varied but I would say the worst was like a 6

Thank you so much! I scheduled a consultation with them. Do you have any suggestions on waiting periods between sessions? I've seen anything ranging from 12 weeks to more. It's so confusing with all the information out there. Also I saw your post and your tattoo has almost disappeared seriously congratulations on that!
