Three treatments, one device
- Permanent makeup removal
Lightening or removal of permanent makeup pigment, with an individual plan and a check of the pigment and skin before treatment. Some pigments may darken or change colour, so the response is checked cautiously before continuing.
- Tattoo removal
Gradual treatment of the tattoo, where the aim is removal or lightening ahead of a correction or cover-up. We check the progress between sessions.
- Carbon peeling
For carbon peeling the same device is used differently: a carbon-based lotion is applied to the skin and the laser is passed over it. It is a facial skin-care treatment, with a different process and goal from tattoo removal.
How does it work?
The device sends short pulses of light to the pigment in the skin. The pulses break the ink into small particles, and the body gradually clears them. That is why the change keeps developing between sessions.
What does it mean for your treatment?
Different ink colours respond differently to light. Before treatment we check the tattoo's colours, size, location, any previous layers and your skin type. With permanent makeup it is especially important to check the pigment, because some shades may darken or change.
What is important to know?
The goal can be removal, or lightening ahead of a correction or cover-up. Complete removal is not always possible, and the number of sessions depends on how your skin actually responds. Redness and sensitivity may follow treatment, and occasionally changes in skin colour, blisters, infection or scarring. We will explain how to care for the area between sessions.
