A brand new tattoo that needed removing! - Dubai Picosure Tattoo Removal

I'd been wanting a tattoo on my forearm for a few years. I already had a small piece on my wrist and I wanted something the flow around it...this wasn't a random decision (I also have a piece on my back, and my husband has giant tattoos so I'm not a total newbie). But as soon as the tattoo artist started I knew I was making a mistake. Sigh, if only I'd listened to my gut and stopped him before it was too late. The strange thing is that I don't hate the whole tattoo; I think it's too big for my lifestyle and personality, but it's beautiful work and I want to keep part of it. Adding to my situation is the fact that I am due to start IVF treatments this year, so my time frame is pretty cramped and my options are limited.
My healing time was speedy and about 4 weeks after inking I visited a clinic in Dubai for a consultation about Picosure. The doctor examined my arm and was happy with my skin condition. He proceeded with a low-level treatment (I didn't get the exact settings for tx1 but I will keep track from now on).
The treatment was painful, but not horribly so. I described it to my husband as "it's like getting the tattoo, but with a burn instead of a needle." I directed the doctor about which parts I wanted to keep and which I wanted gone- he finds it interesting that I'm not trying to delete the whole thing.
I do not live in Dubai (I live in Saudi Arabia) but it's the only place in the region that has the Picosure and I'm trying to get as much done as possible before I start my IVF. I think I'll only be able to get one more treatment before I am too close for comfort. I am not worried about the ink being digested in my body as I am a healthy person with a seriously robust immune system. Plus, the small amount of ink the gets broken down every month cannot possibly be more toxic than the levels of air pollution I am around everyday in Saudi Arabia.
So I will document my treatments and then add photos of how my body breaks down the tattoo over the next year.

I notice a tiny bit of change everyday. But I obsess over it so sometimes I honestly think it the changes are imaginary.
On the day of the treatment and the two days following the area was sore. I kept it gently wrapped in thin gauze while I slept because I have a tendency to scratch at stuff. After the soreness went away I've been keeping the area uncovered as much as possible. When I do cover it I just wear thin cotton shirts.
For aftercare I used gentle ph balanced soap and a cream that's meant for laser treatments- Bioderma Cicabio Crème. I used it twice a day for the first 3 days and then afterwards as needed for itching. By 14 days (post tx1) it barely itched at all.
The hardest part is seriously the mental stuff. I hate having such a huge tattoo all over my arm. I hate that I can see it from almost every angle I turn and twist. But I need to stay positive and remember that I am lucky enough to be able to afford Picosure treatments. These realself forums have been a godsend, truly. Reading everyone's stories has calmed my anxiety immensely.
