Tattoos are a beautiful and personal form of self-expression. However, life throws curveballs; sometimes that once-cherished design no longer reflects who you are. Your tastes have evolved, the tattoo itself has faded poorly, or perhaps an unfortunate mistake was made. Whatever the reason, if you’re considering tattoo removal, particularly for microblading or permanent makeup, you’re not alone. Here at Skinworks Wellness, we understand the desire for a fresh start, and we’re here to guide you through the process.
Reasons to Consider Microblading and Permanent Makeup
- Fading or color change: Over time, microblading and PMU pigments can fade or even turn undesirable colors like blue or red, requiring removal for a clean slate.
- Unsatisfactory shape or placement: Mishaps during the initial procedure can lead to uneven lines, incorrect shapes, or misplaced pigment. Removal allows for a correction or a complete refresh.
- Lifestyle changes: Perhaps your once-bold brows no longer suit your professional environment, or a new allergy necessitates permanent makeup removal.
- Medical reasons: Certain medical procedures or medications may necessitate the removal of permanent makeup for safety reasons.
Unveiling the Science behind Laser Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is the most effective and widely used method for removing microblading and PMU. It utilizes concentrated light beams to break down the pigment particles in the skin. The body’s natural processes then eliminate these fragmented particles, gradually fading the tattoo.
Here’s a breakdown of the laser tattoo removal process:
- Consultation: During a comprehensive consultation at Skinworks Wellness, our experienced technicians will assess your specific tattoo (size, color, depth), your skin type, and your desired outcome. This helps determine the most suitable laser and treatment plan.
- Laser Treatment: The laser emits short pulses of light targeting the pigment particles. While some discomfort is to be expected, topical numbing cream can be applied to minimize it.
- Post-Treatment Care: Following the treatment, the treated area will likely experience some redness, swelling, and scabbing. Following proper aftercare instructions, including diligent sun protection, is crucial for optimal healing.
- Multiple Sessions: Complete removal typically requires multiple laser sessions spaced at specific intervals to allow the body to effectively eliminate the fragmented pigment particles. The number of sessions depends on various factors, but generally, microblading and PMU removal require fewer sessions compared to traditional tattoos due to the shallower pigment placement.
