As most posters know i am covered in Tattoos & love them but when celebrating the purchase of my 1st house my back yard tattooist mate went to far up around my neck area & i wasn't a happy camper when i woke up!
I have just purchased the YAG Q switched laser tattoo removal machine for $2100 & had my first treatment on Friday with no numbing gel & half a dozen bottles of beer i was right to go the wife did it being a nurse & it was the most pain i have every felt 3 times as painful as having a tattoo done i will be definitely paying the $90 for the numbing gel next hit!
Here's a link below of a guy using no numbing gel around his neck area to give ya a idea of how bloody painful it was in theory the laser delivers light of a specific wavelength with high energy which are absorbed by the pigment in the tattoo & result in a shock wave that shatters the pigments particles these tiny particles are then eliminated by the body!
The cost of having it removed by the professionals was $300 a hit most tattoos need 6 to 8 hits with 4 to 6 weeks to heal in between so i decided to buy the bloody thing & i am now doing tattoo removal at home lol at your own risk! I will post some before & after pics when it heals did a test on a tattoo on my finger at 1000 volts lucky i did as it was to high & nearly put a bloody hole in my finger dropped it back to 900 volts & it was sweet as took the wife 45 minutes to finish the tattoo all round my neck i will say it again s**t it hurt like hell!
