Jen's Tattoo Removal Day 7 Update ...

Last week, I had my first laser treatment at Erase the Ink M.D. in an attempt to remove an upper arm tattoo Iโ€™ve had for about 5 years. I blogged about that first day here (LINK TO FIRST TATTOO POST). WARNING: Some of these photos are kind of gross. Blisters, eww!

Today I woke up and discovered six or seven blisters, two of them pretty big. They donโ€™t hurt, but my skin is still really tight and numb at the site of the laser treatment. I can see the tattoo has faded already, and I thought it looked pretty good, until a guy in line behind me at the bank complimented me on my new tattoo. !!! I told him the tattoo was old, and I was having it removed. Ah.

I also ordered my three bottles of Tat-Med online today. I hope it gets here soon, so I can start my comparison!

The site of my treatment itches. Itโ€™s driving me MAD. Itโ€™s a little red, and still a bit swollen. The blisters have mostly healed, though, and they were never scabby, which is good.

Did I mention my tattoo is itchy? Itโ€™s itchy. REALLY itchy.

Still no Tat-Med. It should be here soon.

Iโ€™ll keep you updated! In the meantime, if you have any questions or comments about my first week of the Tattoo Removal Experiment, please let me know!
