SALINE REMOVAL
Saline tattoo removal is a procedure that uses a saline solution to draw tattoo ink or pigment out
of the skin. It can be used to lighten or fully remove tattoos, although it is not the most efficient
method of removal.
Session $150
HOW TO PREP FOR A TATTOO REMOVAL
Do not drink alcohol 24 -48 hours before the procedure
Do not consume coffee or any caffeine before the procedure
Do not take an aspirin or ibuprofen for pain relief (this thin the blood)
Do not tan two weeks prior or have sunburned face/skin
Do not have Botox 3 weeks prior
Do not take Fish Oil or Vitamin E 24 hours prior (natural blood thinners)
Do not wax or tint your eyebrows 3 days before the procedure
AFTER CARE TREATMENT
About 2 hours after the procedure, you should run a cotton swab dipped in sterilized water over
the area. It will also keep the area sterile.
Follow these steps to take care of your skin after tattoo removal:
As the scab starts to form, keep the area clean and dry. The longer the scab stays, the better the result.
Cleanse gently twice daily with unscented soap and pat dry with a clean towel or paper towel.
Until scabbing is complete, no makeup or skincare products should go within 2.5cm of the procedure area.
Do not touch, rub, scratch ,or pick the scab. Doing so may cause scarring and/or hyperpigmentation as well
as prevent the saline from removing as much pigment as possible.
While the area is scabbing, do not apply any type of balm, ointment or covering.
Avoid exercise/sweating, swimming, or water. Do not soak your face underwater or spray shower directly on
your face for 2 weeks.
Once the scab has fallen off on its own, you may begin applying a high-quality oil or ointment 3x daily like
vitamin e or bio oil. No other creams or chemicals should be applied during this time.
Keeping up with your select ointment application for a minimum 4x weeks will reduce the risk of scarring.
The skin may appear pink or discolored for a couple of weeks before returning to its original shade.
Sometimes pigment that has spread underneath the skin may rise to the surface before coming out
completely. In these cases, it may appear that the tattoo has ‘bled’ to surrounding tissue. This is all
part of the process and can be addressed during future sessions if needed.
Please refrain from threading, waxing or hair removal products on the treated area while healing.
Typically the scab can last anywhere from 7 - 14 days depending on aftercare and skin.
