Tattoo removal question?
I had a laser treament done to remove a tatoo. It formed a scab that fell off. Most of the ink is faded but the heavy parts of where the scab is still pink. And this is about 2 months since getting the treatment. At first I thought it was just raw and would heal but why hasnt it yet. My question is will this skin always be pink in these spots.
no, it won’t be always pink, it will fade away in days/weeks so don’t worry about it, this is supposed to happen.

it may be possible that all the ink hasnt been removed. sometimes the tattoo artist gets a little too deep and the laser cant get it all the color out. and the deeper spots your doc may have held the laser longer over it to get all the color out so it may have left a deeper scar. it takes a while for a scar to change. you should ask your doctor to make sure though.

with tattoo removal the laser is burning the ink out of your skin and turns the area into scar tissue and you may have to get 2 treatments done to remove the full tattoo and the skin where the tattoo was will never be the same the pink will go away but it will take along time
