i'm looking forward to smelling your skin
hey guys welcome back to my channel um holding your phone landscape really feels like you're a
youtuber um just side note i have arrived at Vic Dermal Group hannah is in there getting numbed up
we're removing one of her tattoos today obviously she's going to need multiple sessions but today's
the first session she mentioned to me like 18 months ago she wanted to get this tattoo removed
and i was like yes we are doing it for the content and it's taken me this long to finally get her to
do it so um she's about to be in a world of pain i don't know that she knows how much it's going
to hurt but hopefully it's okay she's been in there with numbing cream on so fingers crossed
um so i'm going to go in and we will see how we go
Hannah's been in here getting numbed up, hannah how are we feeling
I'm like sh*ting myself someone just messaged me
on instagram and said oh don't worry botox is more painful and i just said to Derya
i heard botox is more painful she's like she just like looks me and shook her head
okay hi julia come in we're ready to start guys shes sh*ing her pants here we go
so the reason why a tattoo ink stays in the skin is because the ink particles that are deposited deposited um are too
large for your immune cells to break down so the principle behind tattoo removal is the laser goes
in it's attracted to the pigment the ink through a photo acoustic like a mechanical destruction
shatters those ink particles into very small fragments
and then your immune cells remove them as waste
I've heard horror stories about how painful it is
but no one actually does it and like you don't see their reaction. that's why we're here
if we have patients with large areas we can use a local anesthetic before you know it
i feel like we're just gonna have to jump right into it because she's starting to panic
so we can hear the machine warming up in the background it'll be fine the next time
because you'll know exactly what it feels like or you'll be fully panicked
Hannah's deep breathing
hannah's got her safety glasses on. we're just saying it's like
childbirth like you don't know what to expect
oh my god oh my god oh my god
that's just the cooling thing
alright so Derya's starting now
oh my god it's really painful
[screaming]
i think it's painful guys that was that was already one of them that
was already one of the charm channel on the charm bracelet
okay okay okay
[screaming]
you've only got two more charms left
we're done oh my god
now Hannah, did it feel like the straightener on your skin
no [laughing]
to be honest it's really quick yeah it was literally like 15 seconds it was
so quick that it was really manageable how quick it was oh my god i feel like delirious yeah yes
i know i screamed but it was quick yeah you screamed a lot
you were scaring all the patients i know the poor patients in the waiting room were like um
i'm gonna cancel my appointment what are you putting on afterwards
you're applying a burn aid gel
is it gonna hurt less next time yes okay so the first treatment's always the worst
how do people get their whole bodies done
imagine if you had a huge tattoo look it does hurt more than botox
ah that's eight out of ten and botox is a seven out of ten
she's done guys
thanks so much Derya, i'm actually fine
this is post treatment i feel fine i'm happy i'm good how good am i yeah i was really worried there
I was so panicked. stop stop the treatment i really thought she was gonna do that i actually couldn't have
done that on my own yeah like i know you really needed the support all right all right we're done
all right guys so um it's been a week since i had my tattoo removed my first tattoo removal
session now that i've had a bit of time to recover i wanted to say that yes i'm screaming yes i look
like i was in a lot of pain but i think the reason i was so shocked was because i didn't know what to
expect now i know what to expect i feel like i'm really comfortable about going to the next session
so i'm going to need six sessions to completely get rid of it you can do less sessions if you
just want to fade a tattoo some people um are looking to cover with another tattoo i'm obviously
i think that's it for me in tattoos because i don't want to do this again it'll take six
sessions you've got to wait eight weeks in between sessions it's still looking the same as it did
but um i'm really excited to see what it looks like once that pigment starts to fade it's quite
painful and swollen for the first 24 hours but um it went down really quickly i didn't really have
any issues it has been a little bit sensitive to touch but nothing like major so you will use the
burn gel for the first two days and then from day three onwards you'll use the panthen you actually
um i have this leftover from my last tattoo because but this is what you put on tattoos
to help them heal so i'm just gonna rub that in now so you're gonna want to avoid the gym for 24
to 40 48 hours after you get it done which to me doesn't really matter because i don't really go to
the gym you also want to avoid spas pool saunas for 24 to 48 hours after the treatment as well
so you don't want to like aggressively exfoliate the area or use actives like i mean obviously i
don't use actives on my wrists but you don't want to use like vitamin a's or any active ingredients
on the area you'll want to avoid sun exposure in between your treatments um and use 50 plus if you
you know if it's completely unavoidable so so in terms of how much this cost um Derya said this
would be about eighty dollars per session so that's times by six sessions so it's about six
times the price that this actually costs to get done i think the moral of the story is we all make
mistakes but it is quite nice to know that um we can fix those mistakes that's it for me i hope you
um if you're looking into getting tattoo removal i hope that that puts your mind at ease maybe just a
little please ignore my screaming i am a little bit of a hypochondriac when it comes to pain
and if you're thinking about getting a tattoo i hope this is helpful too because um they are
designed to be permanent so it's not easy to get rid of them if you enjoyed cringy convo irl
