Laser Eyebrow Tattoo Removal:
Like all body ink, eyebrow tattoos can be removed with laser technology.
Laser treatment can remove:
- Permanent makeup
- Cosmetic tattoos
- Microblading
- and more
Basically, it can remove any type of unwanted ink on or near your eyebrows. With a few pulses of laser light, your brow tattoos can be removed permanently.
How exactly does the laser removal process work?
It’s actually quite simple:
A laser emits short pulses of light energy into your tattoo. The ink particles in your skin absorb the wavelengths of the laser and shatter the ink particles.
With each treatment, the ink particles break down further and further until they are gone.
The number of treatments you’ll need depends on the size of the tattoo, the colour of the original ink, and the type of ink used by your tattoo artist. Usually, most people need between three and ten treatments to complete tattoo removal.
There are some steps you’ll need to take before your first treatment if you want to see the best results:
Your skin mustn’t be tanned or sunburned in any way (this includes self-tanners and spray tans). Several weeks before treatment, take extra precautions to protect yourself from the sun. Wear sunscreen every time you go outdoors.
Make sure you’re properly hydrated when you go into each session.
In the days leading up to your treatment, avoid shaving, waxing, and exfoliating the area. It’s also vital that you don’t take any aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs, as these can sometimes increase bleeding.
The tattoo removal process is quick and only slightly uncomfortable. However, it is normal to experience some side effects.
Some people may see redness, swelling, and slight blistering in the treated area. On some occasions, you may see temporary lightening or darkening of the skin.
These side effects are common, especially in the first few hours after treatment, but they will subside.
Most people find that their skin returns to normal in about two weeks.
Carbon Skin Rejuvenation Treatment:
The laser carbon peel is a fast and painless procedure done to help improve the look of skin.
It’s used primarily by people with oily skin, acne, and enlarged or clogged pores. This treatment is also beneficial if you’re starting to see the effects of sun damage to your skin.
Laser carbon peels deeply exfoliate skin. They also help stimulate collagen production.
Laser carbon peels are used to treat:
- acne
- acne pigmentation
- acne scarring
- enlarged and clogged pores
- melasma
- photoaging
- fine lines and wrinkles
The laser carbon peel is a multi-part process that takes around 30 minutes from start to finish.
Here’s what you can expect from a typical laser carbon peel:
- A layer of liquid carbon will be spread onto your face. The carbon absorbs oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from deep within the pores.
- You’ll wait for about 10 minutes for the liquid carbon to dry.
- After the carbon has dried, you will get the eye shields to protect your eyes from the laser.
- Your technician will pass a laser, such as the Nd:YAG, over the skin on a low-energy setting. This heats up the carbon, binding it to the epidermis.
- On a higher-energy setting, the laser will be used to fragment the liquid carbon into tiny particles.
- A smoke evaporator attached to the laser will remove the carbon as well as the debris and impurities it contains.
You should immediately see brighter, glowing skin and tighter pores.
If you have sensitive skin, you may experience a slight pinking or reddening of the skin. This usually last for one hour or less.
Laser carbon peels are typically very effective for improving the look of oily skin and large pores. If you have severe acne or acne scarring, it may take several treatments before you see full results. Fine lines and wrinkles should also be visibly diminished after one or more treatments.
Age Spots/ Pigmentation Removal
Laser Pigmentation Removal works to safely and effectively reduce the appearance of freckles, pigmentation, and post-trauma pigmentation including acne scars and age spots. The laser targets only the pigmented lesion in the skin which absorbs the light, without damaging the surrounding skin. The laser heats up and shatters the pigment. The pigment is then drawn to the surface without harming the surrounding tissue.
Once drawn to the surface, the pigmented lesions will fade or dry and flake off the treated area, leaving the skin with an even tone and complexion.
