I've had about 3 sessions so far. I usually don't count the first one because she used a permanant makeup machine to do that one and I'm aware that doesn't go as deep. With all sessions, I've seen her mix it with a bit of water but I thought you were suppose to?
With all sessions it scabbed pretty hard tho.
I just have chinese letters and the word in english belowe it. The ink in the enlish letters is 85% gone. While, the chinese wording is still pretty solid but I've noticed that it's gotten kind of darker and blurry so I guess that shows that something's being drawn up?

How long in between sessions do you wait? From the procedure waiting time for me is 2 months so my skin can heal. I also apply emu oil which prevents scarring, keloids ect...I put it on even before it heals.
Who usually purchases the tat gone ink,you or her? Do you think they should be using a fresh new bottle with each session?

This is cool that you are using the same thing as me, most people use laser and haven't ever heard of tat gone ink/Rejuvi. SO I'm glad we can compare stories! Well I got my first session in April 08 and then the last one was in April 09, last month. The one in between that didn't work was in Nov 08. The only only reason I waited that long is because of money, I didn't have a full time job at the time but now I do and can definitely get it done more often.

I don't think we need a brand new bottle each time, no, my bottle sat around in her office from Apr to Nov 08 without being touched, that's over 6 months so I guess it dries up in a few months or so. It's probably fine that yours uses a little water, I meant that my stuff was COMPLETELY dried up, it was like adding water to dried up dirt so make it wet so she could inject it. Not good apparently it didn't work.

She has to purchase the ink and I pay her back.

I never heard of emu oil, does it work good? I use Vitamin E capsules and squeeze the oil out of them and put them on. If emu oil works better I'll try that.

Yeah I heard that the first session might make your tattoo look darker but that's because it is pulling the ink up closer to the surface. After my first time it got a little lighter, like it wasn't as jet black. A little piece of my scab came off last night and it's like a light steel bluish color so that is good!!!

So it sounds like you're getting good results, that's good. I pray to God daily to just erase these markings from my legs. I mean when I got these tats I was as young as 14 yrs old and I had too much money and just didn't know any better. I wish the tattoo parlor staff would have kicked me out when I first walked in there.
However, I've forgiven those guys for putting ink on my skin just as I have forgiven myself.
Yeah emu oil is pretty good, I find. That and alot of prayers. Emu oil prevents awful scarring and keloids. I have a small section of the tat that kind of bruised up because I kind of pulled of the scab the very first time because I was so excited to see the results. The good thing is that the lady that's doing my tat removals is a micropigmentation skin specialist. She works on scars and everything. I really feel as tho God led me to her. Hard to explain. My next session probably won't be ti'l June09. Wish me luck!
I'll keep you posted with further results and you do the same.

I would like to see pics of your tattoo removal.I'm looking for a good way to remove tattoos that i have on my ankles. Where do i find a place that does rejuvi? I live in Mass

I wouldn't show pics of my tat removals until it's all done. Rejuvi, I think it's done almost n-ewhere but it's about getting someone who actually knows what they are doing. Just make sure you research the technician very well before letting them even touch your skin. If all turns well, I wouldn't even mind giving you this technician's number.

Ha, I wish the tattoo shop kicked me out too. Actually I just wish I never ever met my ex fiance!!!

I know what you mean about God leading you to her. no need to explain. I just can't wait until this is all over with. What city are you in? I'm in Manhattan, NY. Do you get red spots? A scab came off and it's bright red in that area. It kind of looks like blood brought up to the surface. But in other parts of the tattoo that came off, it's lily white. I have to get emu oil.

I found my technician on tatgoneink.com- BUT the website is down, and has been for a long time. That's because Rejuvi bought tat gone ink, or took it over, whatever. So now I wouldn't know how you could find someone to do it. I guess just try googling Rejuvi.

I keep saying I will post pics I keep forgetting. I'm always on my work computer when I post on here and don't have those pictures of my tattoos on here.

I'm actually african american, dark skinned. Which is part of the reason why I use emu oil because African Americans are more proned to getting kelloids with any distraction of the skin. God and emu oil have helped my skin tremendously. The technician is even shocked because I guess she kind of thought there'd be more scarring.
I live in Toronto, On. Where soome of the ink has come off, the skin looks like normal skin, while some locations have a paler result but with the paler locations that's more easier dealing with than removing tattoo ink.
Some websites tell you that the scab may remain until 3 weeks but with me I have found that whatever ink that comes off is right after the session. That's not saying that I remove the scab, that would just cause scarring. I'm just saying that at times my pants may get caught in some of the scab and then pull parts of it off but then when I compare it with the ones that fall off itself, the ink that has been removed is not much of a difference.
I can't really go back to the past or else I'd do a lot of things different, all I can do is deal with Now. However, when I was younger I use to say "The Lord's my sheppard" prayer and in it there's a verse " Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil". I can't help but wonder, where that prayer stood?!

Hey, how are you doing lately?

I couldn't agree more about last line you wrote.

I'm starting to get a little obsessive with my tattoos, I wonder if you have felt that way? I don't mean to sound like a psycho but I have reading online for ways to remove a tattoo at home. I'm not crazy enough to try some of these ridiculously stupid things that some people wrote (one person put a BLOW TORCH to his tattoo...yeah that's a little nutty...!!!) but I am just so upset with myself. I can't help but obsess about these tattoos. I won't wear capris or shorts this summer because I'm so embarrassed about my tattoo. It all scabbed off, it's all healed, but I'm really disappointed and sad. Some spots are visibly lighter but most of it is bright red. I have these bright red scars now. I read that they're "hyperpigmented scars" and I don't know how to get rid of them. So now I have this fading greyish tattoo with red spots all over. It's disgusting and I hate looking at it.

I've even considered buying my own tattoo machine and buying rejuvi myself and doing it myself. I can't afford this anymore, I just can't. I practically begged the lady I go to treatment for for a flat rate and she just wouldn't budge. I am so upset, I don't know what to do anymore. If only I had a million dollars, but I don't. I actually called Rejuvi and the guy told me I can't order it, that someone with a tattoo liscense has to order it and give their liscense number. I don't have any tattoo artist friends so I can't do that.

I've been thinking about cover up but the thing is that I really wanted my skin back. I don't want anything there at all because all it will do will remind me that I have a huge mistake under the cover up, if I got one. I don't know what to do. I just can't believe that I did this to myself. This wouldn't ever have happened if I wasn't so crazy for my ex. I wish I had a guardian angel or something that would have said to me, Stop don't do it, he's not for real. If only...

Hey, Don't be so hard on yourself. I mean we've all made mistakes but the best thing is to learn from them and not repeat those mistakes.
First off, Try not to do the rejuvi removal one right after the other. I mean spread them 2-3 months apart so that your skin can heal itself and that also gives you time to save up some money.
Please don't get the machine gun yourself, let a proffesional handle it. 2nd, if you believe in God, Pray to him and ask for forgiveness because we have offended him. We're suppose to be treating our bodies as temples. Don't get a cover up, As you said, you would still know it is there and it would just be making things worse.
Yes I know what you mean about turning obsessive with them because I find myself constantly searching for ways to undo them also n' of course I wish God would have pulled me away from that tattoo parlor because I was so young but as I mentioned in the last post, I've forgiven the people who gave me the tattoo n' sort of myself. Life is toooooo short, Please live it, don't let it live you. Forgive yourself and your ex....that's a start. Then take it one step at a time.
Also, emu oil is what I use on n-e fresh wound and it helps lessen the scars that's if you put it on before it heals. This oil is amazing and so is God. Try it, right after your rejuvi sessions. Put a few drops on the site 3 times a day until you feel no pain in the site. It also reduces the pain within a few days.

Good luck and keep in touch and I will do the same.

Hi. I'm still really depressed, thinking I couldn't ever find a guy that would accept me this crap on me. I just cannot cannot believe myself, I can't believe I did this to myself!

I called a laser tattoo removal doctor because I read his website and he sounded great, well his receptionist was so condesending she made me feel so stupid for using Rejuvi. She's actually told me "Well hopefully your skin isn't so scarred that we can't help you" and she's like "It's a free country you do what you want but Rejuvi is no good" I was like wow she really made me feel stupid, I don't even want to go there anyway after her sounding so unprofessional, and told me I didn't qualify for a free consultation because I have a "complicated situation." I don't know what to do. The tattoo on my ankle that I most recently had done is splotchy red. I don't know if I should continue Rejuvi. I just don't know. Yet the one on my stomach that I had done once, has absolutely no redness or scarring. I think it's just because it's on my ankle. I don't know.

re: nygirl719

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I had tried to reply to you last week but I believe the website was running slow.
Have you spoken to your technologist? ( I mean whomever has been doing the rejuvi on you). Try the "emu oil" I mentioned and don't forget, "Prayer Changes". Just be careful with lasers also, I've heard some horrifying stories of that. Girl Try to keep your head up, I know it's hard but just believe. I remember earlier on you said you were seeing good results??? I think perhaps the scarring effect could be because it's on your ankle like you said, which means you've got give it extra care right after your rejuvi sessions. LEt's keep eachother posted.

P.S~~Don't give up.

hi cat n kristo , can you guys send me the pics of your tat??? i'd love to see the result as i might get mine's done as well ?

hi cat and kristo, can you guys send me the pics of your result?? i'd love to see how would it works as i might get mine's done as well.

Thx,,,Kimi

Has anyone completed a course to have have a tattoo removed by Rejuvi. If so could you please share your results.

Flavius

HI! thought I would write something after reading everyone else’s experiences, I have a small tattoo about 3cm long, I think the guy doing the rejuvi is having a laugh at my expense, I have had four sessions over the past six months and apart from the first session (where I did notice a real difference) there has been nothing since, It is exactly the same as it was, no change at all!! The tattooists got very rude with me when I asked him why there has been no change in the last 3 sessions, he mumbled that my tattoo was being ‘stubborn’ and the ink was very deep, therefore it would take more, getting very annoyed and stressed now!! Has someone else had this same experience?? I appreciate any advice as I really don’t want to get laser or have another tattoo

Does anyone know how long Rejuvi has been out for? or anywhere where pictures of completed courses with results can be seen? From start to finish?
I have a tattoo between my pelvic bones that I was looking to get lasered off but my friend mentioned this. Have been into the salon that does it and it is very cheap compared to lasering but money means nothing as long as I get the results I want... but as my tattoo is about 6 inches by 1.5 inches I want minimal scarring (obviously). I seem to be doubting the results as no one seems happy and sounds like they are left with not only fading unrecognisable tattoo's but what looks like burn scarring!?? I'm also doubting laser treatment as it can leave scars which is likely on my skin tone as I'm half Thai. After weighing up the scarring and my tattoo... I'm sort of coming to the conclusion that maybe I'll have to accept my mistake and live with my tattoo.
Much appreciated. Carmen

Hi Carmen, my tattoo is about the same size as yours, I have had four treatments of rejuvi cream and although there is some fading, the ink is still very bold, I have been told it can take 4-7 treatments, but it is very annoying and painful when the tattoo scabs, it takes up to two weeks to fall off and I have been disappointed with the results. As for scarring, around the tattoo is very red when the scab falls off, this redness does calm down, the man who is doing mine suggested that I use the oil from vitamin E capsules as this reduces the scarring. Have one treatment done and of you feel it isn�t going to work then at least you tried!! I�m going for 1 more treatment and if it doesn�t work I am considering getting the tattoo covered with another one, I don�t think I could stand the pain of laser!! Hope this helps
