Please do your research and make sure the person or establishment has lasers that can work on blue inks. You also may see better results with older tattoos. Also if they don’t adjust according to your skin tone you may end up with scarring or hyperpigmentation issues. Ask lots of questions about the process and never assume it will only take one session even if it’s a small area.

I have hypopigmentation after deep layer laser therapy after blephroplasty what is your recommended cream to enhance recovery 1:00

Note: Be wary of a product that does not have comments turned on on their advertising page. I have had more sensor failures with the Dexcom G7 in tge last three months than I had with the Free Style Libre in a year. G7 is garbage.

Very interesting info. Thank you.

From my experience, having laser sessions every 6-8 weeks for 2 years and costing me around 9 grand. I can say nothing is guaranteed, although I was guaranteed it would remove the tattoos. Had a black hand tattoo and black knuckle tattoos on both hands. The place I went to was super fancy and they would raise the settings of the machine higher each visit. The fingers took it better but still visible, along with ghosting and scarring in the same pattern of the tattoo. For a while I gave them the benefit of the doubt as sometimes after the blistering and dead skin fell off, the tattoo would seem darker all the way up to the next session. I know of the shady clinics that don't run full power to keep the client coming back for longer than needed but this wasn't one of those places. At the end of 2 years, I had a half-removed hand tattoo and 75% of my finger tattoos removed, but in place of the ink that was removed came the scarring and ghosting. I sat with that for a while as I considered my options going forward. At that point in the last few years, I just decided to do big cover ups and went down that route, blacking out the same arm hand and fingers that the removal was done on and more tattoos. I can say from too much experience, if your skin is fresh and want a tattoo, you had better take it very serious, cause if you're going into getting a tattoo with the mindset of "if I don't like it one day I'll have it lasered" that will probably come back and bite you in the ass. I still wanted all my other tattoos just nothing below the wrist. I'm way better off now, and with amount of ink saturation in my tattoos now, I doubt the best removal machines would do too much. The blackout has like 24oz of black ink alone, and with many passes. With the type of tattooing now days vs 15-20 years ago, anytime I get asked about someone removing a tattoo I just recommend them to get a good cover up 90% of the time, unless it's a faded 10-15+ year old tattoo then I'd say let the laser have at it.

Thought about getting a tattoo when I was younger but never did. I’m so glad I didn’t get tattooed. Very informative video!

You are a wealth of knowledge. Thank you

Not all dark skinned ppl are American, btw most are not

7:57 Couldn't you just give it some lazering every 3 or 6 months to remove it over the course of a few years?

What a honest Doctor. I admire you and would TRUST you . Thank you sir. I was one of those severely damaged by 100units. I was systemic my whole body because loose and sagging. Connective tissue disease. Brutal

Cancer to make every day a struggle, but thanks to Dr Aboda, I finally have relief. I used Dr Aboda product, Guggul Capsules, & the results have been very good. I highly recommend this product.

You are painfully misinformed for a doctor. It has not been proven to cause thyroid carcinoma in humans, only in rats. It also doesn’t directly cause muscle mass loss, the weight loss, including any weight loss does that.

Tattoo removal is done one colour at a time due to the wavelength, so it will take many treatments for colour tattoos. Multiple treatments per colour. This video is very informative. Great for people to know.

Tattoo removal can cost up to about five times as much as getting the original tattoo. I recommend just not getting tattooed in the first place.

Laser tattoo removal is far more painful than getting a tattoo. I cried uncontrollably from the pain. As someone with tattoos, I don't recommend getting tattooed.

I have a large tattoo on my throat would it be really expensive to get it removed?

I have antibodies to Botox after years of migraine treatment. Do you think daxxify might work for me for wrinkles (I have alternate migraine treatment now but I miss my younger looking face). ☺️

Hello Dr G, hope all is well. I want to thank you for this video...I wish I saw it a couple of months ago. That being said, I had 2 questions if you'd be so kind. 2 months ago I got a single needle tattoo on my neck of little black geometric shapes and I instantly had regret. I didn't think about how it would feel to wake up seeing that in the mirror everyday. I wasn't ready. I want this tattoo gone immediately, but the laser center I went to told me to wait a year to start removal; to let the ink settle in? I'm reading online that it is safe to start the removal process as long as the tattoo is fully healed, which it is. In your opinion, how long should I wait to start the removal process? Also, I'm a fair skinned guy; would the Q-switch 1064 be the best laser to use on my single needle black tattoo? Thanks very much Doc!

I agree had 2 fail within two

I have diebeties

The failure to connect here is that he operates on the assumption that people are getting black out for shock value, and not for their own personal fulfillment. As far as the mental aspect people definitely will judge you especially old people but if we’re being honest, they’re probably judging you quietly, even if you don’t have tattoos

I’ve had 10 sessions on my neck of a black quote, I have pale skin, I’m using a Q switch and it’s still showing, should I change to a pico laser or keep going with the Q switch.

So I just got a tattoo, black and have a mild rash allergic reaction. Dermatologist prescribed a topical steroid. I’m very nervous I may have to get it removed. Your thoughts?

Thank you for the informational video. How long would a specific area remain contaminated? An eagle nest that I follow just lost 2 chicks whose remains have now been sent for necropsy. While we won't know the cause of their deaths for a while, viewers are concerned that if they did die of avian flu, what is the probability of the adults contracting it from the nest? The adults have not returned to the nest since about 10 hrs. before the 2nd eaglet died during the evening of 1/27. So far, the adults appear ok.

Your wealth of information is amazing - Thank you!!!!

How good are the beat cell tattoo remover & do they remove colored ink such as red

3:43 that´s after 5 session? that´s really poor results. with saline, you´d have the same results after 1 session.

Thanks for the information. It is only a matter of time before we get human to human spread. ☹ I'll look out for conjunctivitis then.

Great informative video

This is a great video! I learned some things that I did not know. Thank you Glenn. Helen North C

Question number, I can’t remember what we’re up To Can supplementing your laser tattoo removal with a totally empty or blind tattoo Gun meaning that you get a new tattoo over the area with an empty needle to break up the ink under the skin help ???

This just validates my decision to not having ever gotten a tattoo! So glad I didn't.

I have a small moon tattoo on the outside of my wrist. Got it about 3 months ago. It’s already fading. Would this be easier to remove? Take less sessions?

WTH…

Hi. I was wondering if you have an email where I could speak to you about my tattoos? Thank you.

Doctor can you get fat transfer and face lift with fillers? Thanks

I have 2 different machines. 1 is a Picosecond the other is a Nd Yag. I only treat myself. I did an experiment and set both machines to 500mj and did 2 patch tests. The Nd Yag produced a nice frosting effect over the treated area with little to no blisters. The area, over a period of 1 month, did show signs of obvious fading. However, the Picosecond showed different results. This laser caused big blisters. So much so, I had to drain them using a sterile pin. A month later there was no obvious sign that the area was treated. For both experiments, the same ink colour was treated, on the same location (ink: black) The picosecond didnt produce much of a frosting effect compared to the Nd Yag. In regards to healing time, the patch treated with the Nd Yag healed much faster then the patch treated with the Picosecond. I have no idea why this turned out the way it did. I was very disapointed with the Picosecond results. The blistering was a major issue. Im wondering if the Pico needs to be on a much lower setting compared to the NdYag?? Why was there no signs of fading compared to the Nd Yag (hmmm) Settings used for both machines: 1064nm - 500mj @ 4 hz

Hi i got lg ivoire filler in my nasiolabialfolds in causes asymmetrie. The doctors didnt say good Things about hylase. I got it 7 monts know

Is it the same for Picoway the same?

Stay away from tattoos

Why release crap like this?! Dexcom hasn’t ever been helpful when I’ve contacted them!

🤢🤮

I agree

the increase is actually 7,2 percent higher now for ppl with light obezity

This video is old and the G7 works very well. It’s not perfect but they did resolve most of the issues with them.

Agree lol mine is reading very low and now it’s not sensoring my sugar..need to wait 3 hrs lol

I love my tattoos but I want my biggest one removed because, when it comes to picturing my future wedding, I don't want to have it. I could always cover it with makeup or a nude sleeve but my personal preference has changed and I just dont want this specific tattoo anymore. Considering removal. Seems like my tattoo will be easy to remove based on this video!

Couldn't you just work for an established practice and make a solid living working under their supervision and insurance?

Thank youfor your video, i have a question. I had a 4 letter name tattooed in black in 2012, then in 2016 i had it covered up in black ink,the silly man tried to add white ink which i didnt ask for and the whole cover up got infected, was really bad, took about 8 weeks to heal. Im scared for removal incase i get a reaction with it getting infected before. Any advice? Im not scared of the laser pain, im scared about what the ink will do to my body, any advice would be helpful

blindness is one of my greatest fears... As an artist and just appreciator of beauty I can't imagine why anyone would risk the loss of eye sight. It is one of God's greatest gifts. I hate to be comedic but I am imagining all of the celebrities walking around blind in a few years... wouldn't that be ironic? a group of people so concerned with how they and others look, becoming blind?
