From what I have read/heard about the
proceedure, it doesn't remove the color
100%. I think its around 92% color
removal and about 6% scarring.

Rejuvi Tattoo Removal - Tried?

Wow, it's been a loooong time since a post
in this topic! :d
i was wondering if anyone has tried this
or know someone who has. I have currently
undergone one treatment 3 days ago, so I
cannot tell if this is going to work
yet...
I have a professional half sleeve tattoo
(not quite complete) on my right upper
arm. I am also "documenting" my healing
process and results and will be posting
pictures soon incase there's someone out
there who's curious about the procedure.
I would also like to know how long it took
for someone else's crusty-ness to start
coming off! This stuff is driving me
crazy!! :?

Hope Fading...

Well, mine has begun to flake off. This
started right around the 2 week mark.
The part that first flaked off was on a
red ink section... And your skin turns
red when it peels off, so i'm uncertain if
it's new skin or still red ink. The real
moment of truth will been when the neon
green area peels off.
I am a little discouraged, though. The
flower on my shoulder (doubled outline
only - was never completed) did not seem
to change. A piece came off and the
thick, dark outline is still there.
*sigh*
this was a possibility, though. The thick
outline was slightly raised and had one
laser treatment a few years prior. There
could be scar tissue, which affects the
rejuvi and may possibly make the rejuvi
less effective, if effective at all...
But I am still hopeful.

I wouldnt be too hopeful on the first go.
It can take a few sessions to see a
result. Infact you might find that the
tat becomes even more bright and noticable
which is due to the ink being drawn to the
surface of the skin. Mine was a dull
black but already it is really dark and
the scab is full of tat ink.
Are you using any kind of supplement like
hemerriod cream or anything to stop the
scab being so hard and hurting because it
is so dry?
Im not because thats what I was told
unlike when you have the tat.
Keep posting please! I can post pics of
mine if anyone is interested?

Update!

Well, the results are looking better! I
can see considerable fading in most areas
and few places were the ink was removed
all together.
I didn't put anything on the rejuvi. It
can get quite painful at times. I even
had a section crack and split open 1 week
after it was done. It really hurt because
I couldn't do anything to it... I did put
a little bacitracin on it to keep from
infection (since you cannot wash it).
That area is still sore and it may scar
(the rejuvi was pulled off prematurely
leaving an open wound).
Anyway, I hope to get another session
soon. Mine will take a looooong time,
since my tattoo is huge. It will be a
long and painful process, but i'm excited
now.
I sent this to you, already, but I thought
i'd post it here, too:
i also keep the peeling areas snipped back
with nail clippers (mine was getting
snagged on my clothing!). You have to be
careful not to snip too much and that the
clippers are brand new and sharp! They
tell you not to touch it, but I had an
incident where my shirt ripped a loose
piece off, causing it to bleed. But don't
try this if you're uncomfortable with it!!

What Is Rejuvi?

I'm having most of my large black half
sleeve removed with lasers. What's
rejuvi, a form of laser treatment?
Anyway, the lasers are a slow process.
I've been 3 times so far and there's been
some fading, though not much. The doctor
told me it would take about 8 to 10
treatments, so hopefully by next year
it'll be gone. It just sucks because it's
summer and i'd like to wear a tank top,
but I just don't like my tattoo much
anymore, so I don't want people to see it.
For anyone who has visited the tattoo
removal institute, it is totally fake!
And they are affiliated with some tattoo
removal cream, which the fake message
board claims actually works.

Rejuvi Is Awesome

Hey celanam,
rejuvi tattoo removal is a system where
they tattoo in a paste-like substance into
the existing tattoo. The rejuvi paste
absorbs the ink and draws it out as it
heals.
The crust is very hard, itches and can be
painful sometimes (as it heals). You
cannot get it wet the entire time it is
on, which has made bathing difficult. :)
but!
I just had a big piece of a black flower
come off and wow! There are parts where
all the ink came out! And other sections
that have faded a lot.
I was very discouraged at first, but now I
am seeing great results. The draw back is
that laser can cause scarring under the
skin and cause the rejuvi to not work as
well. I had a laser treatment, but I am
still seeing excellent result.
My laser treatment was $800 each. My
rejuvi is $125-$300 each!
Do a search on rejuvi tattoo removal in
your area. Mine is done at a spa. Good
luck!! If you pm me your email address, I
will send you pictures of my results.

Damn right it is painful sometimes. Mine
is dries out hard and becasue of this the
skin is pulled so tight! There are bits
that have come away that are ink free now
but only the tiniest areas. I dont mind
though as I can see its working. Im happy
to go back a few times. It seems to be a
damn sight cheaper in the uk than the usa.
I paid £40 for an hour session which is
maybe $90 at the most. Anyway for a look
at the results have a look at www.E-raze.Com its the
uk site for the treatment and shows a
removed tattoo after the treatment.
Good luck

I am in the process of setting up an
online journal at spaces.Msn.Com (it
supports photos) where I am going to post
photos. You can use any other "blog" or
online journal that supports photos, or
search for free online photo albums. I
think pbase is a free service (where mine
currently are- but it's my boyfriend's and
it's password protected).
Anyway, I am currently rejuvi-free! And
about half of it is also ink-free! :) I
am happy with the results, even after
having a laser treatment (that affects how
well the rejuvi will work).
My next session is this friday! I will
post a link to my photos once I get it set
up.
Update:
okay, here is my online journal w/photos:

Wow! They did a big section on you! I
had a second treatment done last night,
plus a touch up on the remaining black
spots on a flower. It really hurt when he
went over the still extremely tender areas
of the flower. And it bled like crazy!
The lotus flower didn't bleed much and it
doesn't hurt near like it did the first
time.
Here's to continued hopefulness! :)

Most of the main scab has come away now.
Most of the ink is still there although
there are many patches where it has
completely gone. (i put this down to me
having been tattoo'd twice to make it as
black as possible so there is a lot of
ink! And its possible he didnt hit the
right depth)
anyway im not at all worried, thewhole
thing is much lighter in colour and im
happy to go back again asap!
