EYEBROW TATTOO REMOVAL
​
It can be quite disheartening to look in the mirror after getting your eyebrows tattooed and realise you’re unhappy with the outcome. If you’re in this situation, one option to consider is laser tattoo removal.
​
HOW TO PREPARE FOR EYEBROW TATTOO REMOVAL
If you’re dissatisfied with your eyebrow tattoos, it’s understandable to want them removed as soon as possible. However, there are a few things you should do to prepare for laser removal. First and foremost, it’s recommended to wait at least six weeks after getting your tattoo before undergoing laser treatment. This allows the skin to fully heal, which is essential for safe and effective removal.
Additionally, because the laser breaks down the pigment in the tattoo so your body can naturally remove it, it’s important to cleanse your face thoroughly beforehand. .​​​​​
IS LASER EYEBROW TATTOO REMOVAL SAFE?
It is natural to wonder about the safety of laser eyebrow tattoo removal, but there’s no need for concern. While the procedure may cause minor discomfort, it’s generally quick and easily-tolerated.
In very rare cases, you might experience temporary hair loss with slower regrowth or sparse areas. However, these effects are often short-lived. As with any tattoo removal, side effects such as redness and swelling can occur, but these typically resolve within 48 hours.
To minimise any risks, we take care to ensure the treatment doesn’t damage your skin, reducing the chances of scabbing, bruising, or harm to your natural eyebrow hair. Our technique focuses on triggering the laser reaction beneath the surface of the skin, avoiding surface burns or pinpoint bleeding.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR EYEBROW TATTOOS TO FADE AFTER LASER REMOVAL?
The fading process after laser removal depends on various factors, such as the type of ink used, the depth of the tattoo, and your skin type. Typically, you’ll notice fading within the first two weeks following treatment. Pinkness or discolouration around the treated area will usually diminish between eight and twelve weeks after the procedure.
Most people require multiple sessions to achieve their desired results, although in some cases, a single treatment may be enough. Following aftercare instructions is key to getting the best results and minimising complications.
If you have any concerns about the healing process, don’t hesitate to ask!
WHAT DO EYEBROWS LOOK LIKE AFTER LASER TATTOO REMOVAL?
Laser technology is highly effective at removing everything from permanent makeup to cosmetic tattoos. However, immediately after laser eyebrow removal, the appearance of your eyebrows can vary. It’s common to experience mild to moderate swelling, which can temporarily obscure the final look. Fortunately, this swelling generally subsides within 24 hours, and full healing typically occurs within two weeks.
In terms of colour, some people see the pigment fade quickly, while others may notice a more gradual improvement. In rare cases, the tattoo may appear darker or change colour slightly before eventually fading and peeling away.
After one or more treatments, most clients see a significant reduction in the appearance of their eyebrow tattoos with minimal downtime. Light Wave Clinic uses an advanced tattoo removal laser, designed to safely remove unwanted tattoo ink without causing scabs, bruising, or skin trauma. The result is a natural, clean look for your eyebrows.
