Learn about removing eyebrow tattoos
Tattoos on your body, like those on your arms, legs, or torso, can be easily hidden should the need arise. However, disguising facial tattoos is a more challenging task for obvious reasons. Cosmetic tattoos, including those of the eyebrows, are designed to accentuate your features. Nonetheless, there's always the possibility they may not meet your expectations, or over time, the ink might fade, altering the intended appearance. Additionally, as beauty trends evolve, eyebrows' preferred shape and style can shift, further complicating matters.
Like body art, sophisticated laser technology can remove eyebrow and cosmetic tattoos.
Just as the ink adorns your skin in various forms, eliminating or lightening eyebrow and cosmetic tattoos is achievable through cutting-edge laser techniques. Our clinic specializes in the precise, secure, and efficient removal or modification of any unwanted eyebrow or cosmetic tattoos you might have.
Are eyebrow tattoos removable?
Eyebrows are a natural frame for your face, and unsatisfactory eyebrow tattoos can significantly impact your look and self-esteem. Fortunately, thanks to modern technological advancements, you're not bound to live with less-than-ideal cosmetic tattoos.
In Sydney, the demand for cosmetic tattoos is climbing, alongside the number of individuals dissatisfied with their outcomes. Common complaints among clients include:
- Ink colour shifting or fading to an undesired hue of green
- Eyebrows appearing too faint or overly pronounced
- Incorrect shape
- Improper placement
Number of sessions needed?
Eradicating a cosmetic tattoo typically necessitates 3 to 10 sessions, varying based on the tattoo's size, the original ink's colour, and the type of ink utilized.
The effectiveness of the removal process also hinges on the individual's immune and health status, as a robust lymphatic system is crucial for the body to eliminate the fragmented ink particles effectively.
What is the difference between cosmetic tattoos and regular tattoos?
Cosmetic tattoos are applied using less intense pigments than those used in traditional body tattoos, often containing iron oxides and a base of glycerin or water. They are intended to fade gradually, allowing for adjustments in shape and colour over time.
Process of eyebrow tattoo removal
The technique for removing eyebrow tattoos mirrors that of removing general body tattoos. A laser directs short bursts of light energy at the eyebrow or cosmetic tattoo, causing the skin's ink particles to absorb the laser's wavelength and fragment. With successive treatments, these particles are progressively broken down until wholly eliminated.
Natural ways to remove eyebrow tattoos
For those who prefer alternatives to laser removal, 'Salt Removal' is a widely adopted natural technique for cosmetic tattoo removal. It involves either the topical application of salt followed by gentle exfoliation or using salt to draw ink pigments out of the skin. Achieving the desired outcome with this method typically requires multiple sessions, and care during the healing process is paramount, including:
- Cleansing the brows with non-alcoholic soap, patting dry gently
- Applying a healing ointment to scabs and aftercare products to the area
- Avoiding irritation to the brows and surrounding skin
- Refraining from applying makeup to the eyebrows
Note that a waiting period of 4-6 weeks post-treatment is essential to ensure complete healing before attempting another cosmetic tattoo removal to avoid potential scarring.
