That makes treatments take a little longer, which is why fair-skinned patients tend to have faster, more realized results

I had no idea that so many factors played into tattoo removal. I didn’t know that you had to go in and get rid of the broken down ink particles. That makes sense because of how you get tattoos in the first place.
Wow! I never heard about it! Thanks for sharing!
For a person who is getting their tattoo removed in the next couple days, I did not know your diet plays a role in the tattoo removal process. I will be sure to keep that in check. Thanks!
