What to Expect During the Eyebrow Tattoo Removal Procedure: Pain and Aftercare

Unthink Inc • February 6, 2024

Eyebrow tattoos have become increasingly popular over the years, but not all tattoos turn out as expected. Whether it’s a bad shape or color, or you simply don’t want it anymore, there are various reasons why someone might want to get their eyebrow tattoo removed. However, many people are hesitant to undergo tattoo removal because they are unsure of what to expect during and after the procedure. In this blog post, we will discuss the eyebrow tattoo removal procedure, including the pain involved and aftercare. We will also explain how PicoWay Laser technology, a cutting-edge treatment used by Unthink Inc. provides efficient and effective results.


What is Eyebrow Tattoo Removal?

Eyebrow tattoo removal is a procedure that uses laser technology to break down the ink particles in the tattoo, allowing the body to naturally eliminate them over time. The process involves shooting high-intensity laser beams into the skin, targeting the ink particles in the tattoo. The laser breaks down the ink particles into smaller fragments, making it easier for the body’s immune system to remove them. The number of treatments needed to remove a tattoo depends on various factors, including the size and color of the tattoo, the age of the tattoo, and the type of ink used.


Pain during the Procedure

Pain is a common concern for those considering tattoo removal. While the procedure can be uncomfortable, most people tolerate it well. The level of pain experienced during the procedure depends on several factors, including the individual’s pain threshold, the location of the tattoo, and the size of the tattoo. Some people describe the sensation as similar to getting snapped with a rubber band. Unthink Inc. offers a topical anesthetic cream called Zensa to help minimize discomfort.


Aftercare

Aftercare is essential for the success of the tattoo removal procedure. After the treatment, the treated area will receive a vitamin E rich ointment, a branded ice pack to use for up to 2 days and the patient will be given instructions on how to care for the treated area. It’s important to avoid exposure to direct sunlight and to apply a cold compress to the area to help reduce swelling and discomfort. Patients should avoid removing any healing texture or dry skin that may form and avoid brow makeup for at least 48 hours.


PicoWay Laser Technology

Unthink Inc. uses PicoWay Laser technology to provide fast and efficient tattoo removal services. PicoWay is a state-of-the-art laser system that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to target the ink particles in the tattoo. Unlike traditional tattoo removal lasers that use nanosecond pulses, PicoWay’s ultra-short pulses create a photoacoustic effect that shatters the ink particles into smaller fragments. This process is more comfortable, efficient, and effective, requiring fewer treatments than traditional laser removal.


PicoWay’s advanced technology is safe for all skin types and can remove even the most stubborn tattoos. The treatment is quick, with most sessions lasting less than 30 minutes. Patients can return to their normal activities very soon after the procedure, and there is minimal medical and social downtime required.
