Laser Tattoo Removal: My trip to Strimling Dermatology was very positive. Dawnelle was my licensed aesthetician. She was very knowledgeable and respectful of my needs. I requested numbing injected in me and a nurse came in and gave me 5 shots of numbing injection on each side of my wrists. This was probably the most painful part. But after that, the novacane worked right away. Then it only took about less than 15 secs for her to go over each part of my tattoo with the laser. I did not feel as much pain as I did with the shots, but I am glad that I had the shot. Different kind of pain I suppose... The results were miraculous, it already has faded. Crazy technology. You should look into them because they have a skin doctor over seeing the practice. Very professional, I highly recommend this place. Dawnelle can even explain to you how to take care of the healing process so that it does not scar nor does your skin color change.
