What Is Tattoo Lightening?

Do you want to get rid of the ink from a previous microblading treatment? Sometimes, the pigment from microblading cannot be properly covered up with a color boost so the owner of Bladed Inc. and master artist Britt Baker offers saline tattoo lightening. As a minimally invasive treatment, saline tattoo lightening can remove semi-permanent makeup, otherwise known as cosmetic tattoos, from the eyebrows. The number of sessions needed to achieve your ideal results will depend on the depth and saturation of the old pigment. For more information about saline tattoo lightening, call the Zionsville, IN practice to schedule an appointment today.

Who Is a Candidate for Tattoo Lightening?

Good candidates for tattoo lightening at Bladed Inc. are people who want to remove the results of a past microblading procedure. This might be because the ink has faded unevenly or turned to an undesired color, or due to a desire to change the style of the eyebrows. Ideal candidates are individuals in good health, without skin conditions that could interfere with the procedure. During a consultation at our Zionsville, IN office, our staff will assess your eyebrows and let you know if tattoo lightening would work well for you.

What Are the Benefits of Tattoo Lightening?

At Bladed Inc., saline tattoo lightening removes semi-permanent makeup and microblading that has become discolored. Benefits of tattoo lightening performed by owner and master artist Britt Baker at her Zionsville, IN office include:

Removing microblading so that new, more vibrant brows can be tattooed
Fewer risks and likelihood of scarring than laser tattoo removal
Minimally invasive treatments
Saline effectively breaks down existing ink

How Does Tattoo Lightening Work?

Unlike laser tattoo removal, which delivers a form of heat to the targeted area, saline tattoo lightening uses a saline solution of salt and purified water to break up the pigment for removal. First, Britt will apply a numbing cream to keep you comfortable. Then, using a handheld tool, she will gently penetrate the brow area to insert the saline solution, which will break down the ink and draw it out in a process called osmosis. The pigment will form into scabs that eventually fall off, giving your brows a lighter appearance. The price for tattoo lightening is $150. To book an appointment for tattoo lightening, a non-refundable deposit of $100 is required with the remainder due on the day of service.

What Can I Expect After Tattoo Lightening?

After undergoing tattoo lightening at Bladed Inc., you can expect to experience some redness, mild swelling, and scabbing in the treatment area as the saline solution works to break down the pigments. It's essential that you do not pick at the scabs as it can lead to scarring. Owner and master artist Britt Baker will provide you with aftercare instructions to follow to ensure that you heal properly and acquire the best results. Over time, as the skin heals, you will notice a gradual lightening of the semi-permanent makeup. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve your desired outcomes.

Brit did an amazing job on my brows! I’ve always hated doing eyebrow makeup and now I don’t have to! I’d 110% recommend her to anyone wanting beautiful brows.

Brittany is the BEST. She truly listened to what I wanted, and what I did not want. She took the time to map out what she thought would work best for my face shape/size. Along the way, she often asked, "What do you think? Are you ok with that?" to make sure I was on board. There was never any rush or impatience on her part. Any questions I had, she was very sweet in answering them. And I am truly blown away by the results!! For the first time in my adult life, I have nice eyebrows!! (No more penciling it in every morning with make up, wahooo). And ladies, let me tell ya - that itself is SOOOO liberating. I will let the photos below speak for itself. Britt is amazing, and I will be happy to go back to her for any future needs. Her office is so nice, clean, and I find myself actually looking forward to going to see her because her atmosphere is so pleasant and relaxing!

Britt was amazing. She answered all of my questions and was very responsive to my texts and emails. I was very nervous because my natural brows are blonde and sparse, and I didn't want them to look fake. Britt reassured me and shared with me that her own brows were blonde as well! The 8 week touch up is included in the price. I wish I hadn't waited so long to do this!

Highly recommend Bladed Brows if you are considering microblading! Britt took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted and was able to give me that exact look. She maps out your brows perfectly to give you the best look for your face. The studio is clean, comfortable, and professional. My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner!
