What to expect
A look at your journey at key milestones.
- SESS3~56% faded. Early ink shatters and your immune system clears the loose pigment. Bold black lines start to look lighter and grey.
- SESS6~80% faded. The tattoo looks visibly washed-out. Stubborn colors (greens, blues) begin to move now that the top layers are gone.
- SESS9~91% faded. You are approaching the finish line — mostly faint shadows remain. The last sessions chase the most resistant pigment.
