I just finished my sixth treatment three days ago and I'm a bit worried. After the fifth treatment, the wound blistered up into one giant blister after about a day and filled with a very light pink fluid. This time, it blistered up immediately, but instead of being one giant blister, there's a bunch of tiny ones and some larger ones that have filled with red fluid, which is most likely blood.. The blisters look really dark, unlike the 5th time. I'm afraid that the nurse who did it this time burned me severely. Do you have any experiences with small blisters filling with blood-like fluids? aivlys54https://www.blogger.com/profile/14316332365127430155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-22485437561724065822013-06-12T13:24:12.681-07:002013-06-12T13:24:12.681-07:00Hi!

I wanted to introduce my clinic to your blog really and let people know of a new method of removing tattoos. Its the R20 technique. We have been providing this service for almost a year now in the UK with the Fotona QX Q-Switched laser. <br /><br />The method basically involved performing multipul passes in the same treatment session. We can perform up to 4 passes. This give more downtime but no higher risk of scarring. The benefit is it can give almost 50% reduction in just one clinic visit. <br /><br />I am not sure if this will be of interest to you or your reader as we are in the UK but thought i would try. <br /><br />Please see for more information and clinical trial of the procedure. <br /><br />http://www.epsomskinclinics.com/R20_Tattoo_Removal_Epsom_surrey.html<br /><br />http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22036610<br /><br />Kind Regards, <br /><br />Matthew Barnes<br />Epsom Skin Clinic - Surrey, UK<br />+44 1372 737280<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01362282676412485120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-78147891810812930342013-03-06T14:01:03.090-07:002013-03-06T14:01:03.090-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763521054182994605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-44980595442542786712013-02-11T09:29:09.405-07:002013-02-11T09:29:09.405-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00849594282042804396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-32128270015799369832013-01-23T17:13:25.087-07:002013-01-23T17:13:25.087-07:00This blog was great thank you so much for posting ...This blog was great thank you so much for posting it! I have chest tattoos that are black, purple and blue, and am considering having removal done! It's SO scary to think of ending up with something that looks worse than before. I think I want to really get them done though. The clinic I went to for a consult uses the YAG Q-switched laser (or something like that), but they said they dont use anesthesia. Should I go somewhere that uses anesthesia? My email is vanesa.delapuente@gmail.com please feel free to reply there and thanks so much!!!<br /><br />VanesaVanesa de la Puentehttp://vanesa.paspartout.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-38368732376995547822012-12-27T17:24:58.805-07:002012-12-27T17:24:58.805-07:00Hi there, I love your blog!

But what I really wonder is the condition of your tattoo now. Does it still have those hypopigmentation marks? Did it blend with your skin yet? Or do you have a scar?Nadinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17161242167994002439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-51805364972078897042012-12-10T13:57:20.630-07:002012-12-10T13:57:20.630-07:00just wanted to say your blog was helpful in giving...just wanted to say your blog was helpful in giving a real-life account of tattoo removal, so thank you for that. I had my first session a little over a week ago to do some lightening for a cover up. admittedly your pictures scared the hell out of me beforehand - but my first treatment was mild with minimal blistering. it's starting to lighten a bit, so that's always re-assuring. maybe I'll blog about it if I stop being lazy. thanks again.SLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283331622669636617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970871372428730549.post-87564042539068446382012-10-04T15:19:26.626-07:002012-10-04T15:19:26.626-07:00Hi!

One of which went really while and will be starting my first treatment this Friday. I did a patch test on my wrist my skin raised for about 4 hours and has settle down again.(i only want to remove part of the tattoo as the tattoo artist didnt do a good job on that part n it just looks awful so i've decided to keep the letters but remove the design around it) i couldn't get a cover up as i would have to go bigger and that was not an option for me! Thankfully im not prone to Keloid scars and i believe im hyper-pigment but i generally dont scar badly when i do it tends to fade fairly neatly into my skin as time goes on. The consultant as the client reckons that i wont scar too badly so will have to wait and see...Ive booked 4 treatments (for now)as what needs to be removed is quite small (2 inchs)so hopefully wont need too much work as its 4 months old and has already faded since i first got it perhaps coz its on my right wrist and thats my most active. Anyhow, i will keep you updated. Thanks again Miss2Miss2noreply@blogger.com
