What is saline tattoo removal?​

→Saline tattoo removal is a method of removing pigment from skin using a saline solution. This solution will bind to the pigments, break them down and draws them to the surface of the skin. 

♦The technique uses the same tattoo machine, movements and pressure as during a permanent makeup procedure, and can be compared to just getting your brows or tattoo done again, but in less time.

 

Will saline tattoo removal work on traditional tattoos or only unwanted permanent makeup?

​→Yes, saline tattoo removal will work on traditional tattoos as well as cosmetic tattoos. Although for large traditional tattoo pieces, we recommend laser.

​

How many sessions of removal will I need?

​→This depends on your overall goal with removal. If you want to completely remove without doing a coverup, removal can take several sessions. However, if your goal is to lighten the tattoo enough so we are able to effectively cover them, then you'll need less sessions.

♦It is VERY important to understand that corrections require multiple services to get the best possible results, spaced out in between 8 weeks at a time.  

Does saline tattoo removal hurt?

Most clients report little to no pain. A topical numbing is applied before the procedure as well as a numbing during the procedure to keep you comfortable.

Saline Tattoo Removal is a natural approach to tattoo removal. It is the least invasive and less painful form of tattoo removal.  As pigment rises to the surface, a scab will form, and will fall off as the removal area heals, thus revealing a lightened tattoo.

LI-FT REMOVAL

♦Li-FT is an EXCELLENT product that has been getting amazing results in the removal of pigment from the skin. This product can also be used on body tattoos but no bigger than about 3 inches wide x 3 inches high. This is because the technique would simply take too long and I recommend looking into getting laser removal at that point.

♦Li-FT is an all natural unique solution for correction and lightening. It can safely lift out the unwanted pigment from the skin immediately for an emergency removal (only in a 24 hour period after the procedure) or can be performed in sessions on old unwanted permanent makeup from years ago.       

PLEASE NOTE- this procedure is only a pigment lightening service; the skin can never be replaced or returned to its natural state.

WHAT IS THIS SOLUTION MADE OUT OF AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

♦Li-FT contains finely milled sea salt, purified water, lemon seed extract, orange seed extract, and aloe.

♦Depositing the saline solution into the skin breaks up the healed pigment. It is a beginning of lifting the pigment out of the skin. This process is called osmosis, where molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentration on each side of the membrane.

During this process, the pigment is slowly pulled up to the surface of the skin. It heals into a scab and peels off. When the scabs start to fall off ink falls off, leaving a lightened tattoo.

This lightening technique is safe for all skin types and involves fewer risks of blistering, scarring and discoloration (hypo/hyperpigmentation).

Aftercare

Clients with special events, travel plans, or who work in an environment with the probability of high bacterial exposure should choose the right timing for the lightening procedure so aftercare instructions do not conflict with these activities or work schedules.

• You must heal a minimum of 8 weeks between each removal sessions and 12 weeks before re-tattooing the area.

• Keep the treated area dry

• Avoid exercising, swimming, sweating, gyms, high public traffic areas such as hotels, airports, grocery stores, etc.

• Avoid contact with the procedural area directly with hands that have not been thoroughly washed.

• For several hours, and in some instances longer, the wound may weep lymph blood and fluid. These fluids can be blotted off by applying pressure (no rubbing) with a clean paper towel or tissue

• The procedural area should be cleaned with a gentle product such as Cetaphil, Neutrogena or Cerave (gentle products without fragrance, acidic ingredients)

• Topical cosmetics may not be applied over the procedural area to coverup or hide the appearance of the wound. Cosmetics may contain ingredients that are contraindicative to healing wounds, may contain bacteria

• Keep the tattoo lightened area dry when bathing. This is more difficult for body art tattoos. While showering, people who have had cosmetic tattoos lightened may turn their back to the shower spray and gently blot off any moisture with a paper towel.

• Under no circumstances should the crusts that develop over the wound be removed.

• If you will notice any sign of the infection consult with a doctor
