Removing radiotherapy tattoos
I finally (thankfully!) finished all my treatment at the start of February, but the one thing that still bothered me was the radiotherapy tattoos. I felt a bit weird and vain thinking that I wanted to get rid of them but decided that I'd bite the bullet and contact a tattoo removal clinic to ask if they'd do it.
It turns out getting them removed is very common because the laser clinic place not only happily said they do it, they also don't charge it.
So I went along today and got my four tattoos zapped. All up it took about 10 minutes and most of that time was the explanation about how the whole thing worked! I still have to wait six weeks to see if all the ink disappears, but the lovely lady at the laser clinic said just to come back if I can still see ink after that time and they'll zap them again.
It's a small thing to do but it's given me such lift today to have gone and done that! Just one more thing to start putting the cancer behind me :)
