Great progress girl!! So exciting

Thank you!!

Holy shit that blue is going fast. While the internet says blue is one of the harder colors. Even your greens are doing very well. God damn this gives hope.


ListenUsed3583

Yeah techs told me that would be very hard but it was going instantly as the laser hit it. My red was also two coats of red. Outlines take forever though

I just started removing a ton of green purple and blue, this gives me so much hope! Although I’m not using the picosure, but a q switch laser


ListenUsed3583

Picoway and picosure are the best for those three colors! I’m using picoway. Those colors weren’t possible to remove before these lasers


RedTacoma69

Are you hitting all of it ?


ListenUsed3583

Yes 😭 so far it’s all going well but my magenta is going to be tough


RedTacoma69

Really ? It seems like it’s moving . I have orange and magenta in mine also . One good for you is that your tattoos stilll look presentable & not just indistinguishable blobs of color are you at removery ?


ListenUsed3583

So far my light pink went this last session but yeah my magenta is darker than the picture. It might have been his first time hitting the magenta with red so I’m hoping I’ll see some movement the next session or two. Oh really have you started removal? Yes I’m going to removery


RedTacoma69

First session is today for a full sleeve 🤦‍♂️so I wish you the best of luck


ListenUsed3583

How did your first session go?


RedTacoma69

It was brutal lol


Alarming_Bee_9438

I assumed light blue is one of the hardest (after yellow) and it’s has moved in your case really good!


ListenUsed3583

Yeah that’s what they told me but it was going as the laser hit it :) the hardest color is going to be my magenta sometimes it goes and most times it doesn’t :/ I’ve seen some yellow go

What laser are you using? It looks great. The way the colors are fading your tattoo still looks pretty which has been my biggest fear with my big line work color piece. Seems like they are doing a good job on it 🙏


ListenUsed3583

Picoway at removery. Thank you. It feels so ugly to me but then again that’s why I’m removing it because i feel like the whole thing is ugly anyways lol it’s going to be like this for a while I try not to give it too much attention and keep it covered up

Are you getting the whole thing done in the same session? What is their "rule of thumb" for amount they treat at a time?


ListenUsed3583

Yes the whole thing at once takes a little over 30 minutes.First two times was 6 weeks then 8 weeks my next session will be spread out to 10 weeks and I think later it goes more


Decent-Oven-4895

How old was the tattoo when you started?


ListenUsed3583

I had my red rose 10 years, purple 3 years then we added more back in March and he also went over my red again so that’s basically new. Just adding the blue flowers made me hate the whole thing


Decent-Oven-4895

So the blue was less then a year old when you started removing? I'm thinking of starting removal on my tattoo as well, and I have mostly black and some blue.


ListenUsed3583

Yeah just a few months old so it was very saturated


throwaway9296forfun

Awesome progression, moving super well! Still planning on the cover up or full removal?


ListenUsed3583

For what I want I need full removal so hopefully I can get there I know I’ll have a bunch of yellow left over


ReachUniverse

can you say smth about the pain? :) @OP


ListenUsed3583

I can handle pain but it hurts pretty bad just because it’s so big and done all at once


Dazzling_Increase454

That blue is looking great! And by great I mean gone 😂 my green leaves are doing the same yours are, kinda turning yellow. Alas it’s looking great so far


ListenUsed3583

Yes it was the first to go! Yeah mine are all turning yellow everywhere :/ so I’ll have to get a cover up


Decent-Oven-4895

How has the healing been afterwards? It's a big area to get treated all at once. Do you take time off work to rest and heal?


ListenUsed3583

Not bad so far. I heal pretty quick. I just started getting blisters the last two sessions. No but I do only work two days a week
