    I have had 10 sessions of tattoo laser removal so far. The skin were the tattoo is being treated feels rough when I touch it i.e you can feel the design of the tattoo on the skin when you touch it if that makes sense If anyone has had laser removal is this normal?

    I have the same thing I had about 12 sessions. I think it pretty unavoidable to be honest to some degree but if at any point the laser has been set to high and blisters burst it will leave you with more scar tissue.

    This area will also be more sensitive to whilst getting a cover up.

    cheers for the reply. I am not aiming for a cover up but just a hopefully complete removal

    They are just faded not completely gone and that's after 12 sessions. It was one bloody expensive mistake:o
