Saline tattoo removal, also known as the salt and saline technique, is a non-laser method used to lighten or completely remove unwanted cosmetic tattoos, such as microblading or permanent makeup. This procedure involves the use of a saline solution, which is carefully tattooed into the skin over the existing pigment. The saline solution creates a scab as the area heals, and as the scab naturally falls off, it pulls out some of the unwanted pigment along with it. This method is particularly effective for fading tattooed eyebrows and other small cosmetic tattoos, offering a gradual and gentle removal process.​
​
Saline tattoo removal has several benefits. It is less invasive than laser treatments, making it a safer option for sensitive areas like the eyebrows. This technique can be used on all skin types and colors without the risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring, which is sometimes a concern with laser removal. The saline method also allows for targeted lightening, making it easier to correct or reshape cosmetic tattoos without completely removing them if desired. Results are typically seen after a few sessions, and the procedure provides a more natural, safe solution for those looking to adjust or remove permanent makeup.
