A few questions about laser tattoo removal? I'm going for my consult tomorrow. Even though my doctor will answer some questions, I wanted some advice/info from people who have actually had it done. I've heard mixed things about it... My tattoo is roughly 5 inches in height and 4 inches wide, across my lower back. It is all black. Some of it has already faded after having a few tatgoneink sessions and a few at-home chemical peels. I'm wanting laser surgery to hopefully remove the rest of it quickly. My questions are: 1) Does it hurt badly? 2) If so, was this with or without numbing creams/injections? 3) And are numbing creams worth investing in or is the pain all the same? 4) My skin is EXTREMELY pale. I've never tanned, it is transparent white... are my chances of not scarring/discoloration better? 5) How long did it take for anyone with an all black tattoo to be removed? Thanks!

About how much does this cost and who/what company is to be recommended? Please tell me about your experience and if your skin got burned or so? 5.

Chemical Peel or Laser Treatments? What works better to remove acne scars? To prevent future breakouts? Have a consultation today. What does anyone recomend?
I need safe, affordable treatment for acne scars. Does it exist? I don't have extremely deep scars on my face, but they are noticeable and widespread around my face. Depending on the lighting/shadows of a room, they can be very noticeable to not so noticeable. I have seen a dermatologist, and dumped a couple grand into micro-dermabrasion. I noticed mild results, but could not afford to keep them up. I try to do research, but it is so confusing. Chemical peels, acid peels, lasers, surgeries, home remedies, etc. I don't want to do anything super serious with high risk of intensified scarring, or that has long recovery times. I also don't have tons of cash to waste on unreliable methods. Can anyone offer some suggestions, either from professional or personal experience?

Hypopigmentation after laser hair removal? I recently had laser hair removal done by a dermatologist; on my fourth or fifth treatment, because my skin was slightly tan, I received burns all over the area with very superficial brown scarring (like a very, very thin scab). The brown areas are now peeling off and the skin underneath is normal texture, but is very very light (not pink). Is this just regeneration of the skin, or could it be permanent hypopigmentation? Will the color eventually blend in with the rest of my skin? I've been applying aquaphor twice daily. Thanks for the help.

I was just wondering if I should give this product a try before splashing loads of cash on a laser treatment that might not necessary work... sign...
