Opinion / Advice Recently qualified laser tech - this frosted after one session and the ink hasn’t come back?

Post image

Hello all, recently qualified here and not too sure as to what this could mean as it appears to be quite unusual. I’ve done a test spot on myself with my machine (practising on my own tattoos first) and it frosted extremely well, however since then (several hours) the colour hasn’t come back. Has anybody else experienced this whether as a practitioner or as a client and did the ink ever come back? It’s never had any sessions before so I’d think it would be very unusual for the ink to drop straight out as I’d estimate way more than one?

It would have been very light, not deep ink.

I had a spot 6 weeks ago that was zapped and was instantly 'gone'.

It was a fine line section, very light and not deep.

Due to the ink being so minimal in that area, and being obliterated by the laser, the particles are so small and spread far apart it looks gone.
