This tattoo is a perfect example of why ink fades inconsistently with laser removal.
The reason your tattoo fades inconsistently though out laser tattoo removal treatments is because the tattoo ink isn’t deposited evenly in the skin. Different areas hold different ink densities, depths, and even ink compositions especially in older or detailed designs. When the laser breaks the ink apart, your body’s immune system clears those particles at different rates, causing some areas to fade faster while others linger.
This is normal, expected, and exactly why tattoo removal is a process, not a one and done treatment (for the most part). Consistent sessions & proper spacing between sessions = the best results.
Now you know 😉
