WHY SHOULD I GET LASER REMOVAL ON OLD OVERSATURATED WORK?

It is always worth removing old, oversaturated work. When you have a dense, blocky, or heavy previous brow tattoo, it’s not possible to create something natural, light & fluffy over the top of it. Typically when brows have been tattooed either very heavily, too many times without considering how pigment ages or simply putting the strokes too close together it lasts a very long time & doesn’t fade out successfully. When brows have been tattooed lightly, utilising negative space and not oversaturated then they fade out after an appropriate amount of time. I always encourage clients to think about how long they have left living with brows they don’t love or even like…the sooner you start removing them, the sooner you can have the brows you want.

WHO IS SUITABLE FOR LASER REMOVAL? 

Fitzpatrick skin types 1-4 are suitable for laser removal, skin types 5 & 6 are best suited to liquid removal due the way in which laser can also unfortunately target the melanocytes aswell as the pigment in the skin creating a higher risk of skin damage.

Any clients booking removal who are high risk for laser skin types (5 & 6) we will be able to safely do liquid removal for you.

HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

The average amount is 2-5 sessions. If the skin is heavily oversaturated, more sessions will be needed. If there is just a slight shadow sometimes one session is enough. Depending on how much pigment is present, it can vary from 1-6 sessions. 

DO I NEED A PATCH TEST? 

The first session will include a patch test, quite often we will be able to wait 10/15 mins & then proceed if no adverse reactions are visible. Alternatively we will wait 2 weeks before the full treatment if there is any adverse reaction visible or you have a skin type that requires caution.
