It is now possible to get rid of unwanted, faded, or discolored tattoos without painful laser treatment. Pigment remover is becoming very popular since this process can be very exact in pigment lightening and making permanent makeup corrections.

Pigment Lightening Saline Solution Procedure

A specialized, all-natural saline solution is implanted over unwanted permanent makeup or a small tattoo with a single acupuncture needle (machine). The technician applies numbing cream on the skin before the treatment (lidocaine).

How Does Saline Pigment Remover Work

Implanting pigment remover into the skin breaks up the healed pigment. It lifts the old pigment out of the skin by osmosis.

*osmosis a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane. The pigment is slowly pulled to the surface of the skin and heals into a scab.

When the scab falls off, old pigment falls off with it, leaving a lightened tattoo. While healing, the skin extracts more and more undesired pigment.

The formula contains natural ingredients sea salt, purified water, lemon seed extract, orange seed extract, and aloe.

How Many Removal Treatments Do I Need

Removal of the tattoo or permanent makeup takes more than one procedure to remove everything you are not satisfied with, but the first results are immediately visible.

Requires 2-5 treatments every 8 weeks.

What Is The Difference Between Laser And Tattoo Remover?

With a laser, all of the removed pigment is absorbed into the body. With remover, most of the pigment is lifted through the surface of the skin. Certain lasers can only break up certain ink colors, mostly dark colors. Remover is also color agnostic it means that it works on all colors of the pigments.
