First session one week post-operative eyebrows Pico laser by Dr Adrian in Washington DC. Those sunset colors are really peeking through, which I was certain was going to happen but WOW. I am so happy I finally decided to make the jump! I have a 2nd session booked in the middle of June.
Hi everyone! I’ve had micro bladed brows for about 10 years now and I’ve grown to dislike them. I do love the convenience of not having to do my brows even on casual no makeup days (took me forever before because my natural brows are super sparse), but I don’t like how they’ve faded into a gray.
I also think the shape is somewhat unnatural and as I’ve gotten older and started wearing less dramatic makeup, the brows no longer suit me.
Ideally, I’d like to remove them and get them re-done with something more natural… but after having perused this subreddit, I’m not sure if that’s my best option.
Based on the photos, what would be the best route? Is it possible to get some more pigment on top to cancel out the gray? Currently, I fill my brows with an auburn pencil, which brings them to a more natural color that fits my skin tone and my features.
Thanks in advance for feedback!
Will the mark go away? I believe it is burn marks from the laser.
So these are my lips about 7 weeks post touch up
My first session healed super light so I asked for a slightly darker but still natural result
I’m happy with the centre colour of my lips but the borders/outline is pretty strong and looks like lipliner (looks worse- but these are sunlight pictures)
I’ve been told to just wait it out but I feel they’re unnatural and I’m super unhappy and i desperately want to lighten the outline (about 20-30%? Or one shade overall)
My artist (who is super good) offered saline free off charge and im wondering about any success stories and how the healing process is like
Id rather avoid laser
I have exams so I was planning on waiting till after my exams in about 2 months to do the saline (hoping that it will fade but I was told it wont much from this point)
Any help would be appreciated!
Got lip blush done in January- had my first laser removal 2 days ago and see no difference at all. I know it can take weeks for the body to break down the pigment but I’m needing some encouragement.
The clinic uses UNDO PMU - where I live is quite rural so hard to find clinics - it’s £90 per removal session which is fine but I don’t know if I should continue?
Hi! Question for anyone who’s gotten their yellow successfully removed :)
How many sessions did it take you? I had probably around 5 sessions at one place, which did nothing by except probably make it worse, and now I’m trying Think Again :)
So far I’ve had 3 sessions and it’s gotten slightly better but curious if anyone has had success and how many sessions it took you?
Thanks!
Had my first removal session today and remembered why I got them tattooed in the first place. These babies are sparse 😂
Anyway, happy with results so far - hoping the red goes away some and hoping I can learn how to pencil these in.
I had my second session of laser removal on red brows with the cutera enlighten, the ink looked like it was pretty much all gone for the day, and the next day my brows look almost exactly the same as they did before. Will they fade out to look how they did before the ink came back or did the laser just fail??
another update to how brows are looking a month after my 3rd laser session. there is a hint of red lingering under my left eyebrow so i may go in for a 4th session in 2 months. just wanted you all to remain optimistic that crazy red brows can go away!!! i too was left with crazy red after my 1st and 2nd laser sessions (last picture), it has finally taken me to my 3rd session for it to finally go away. there is light at the end of the tunnel!!!!
Originally got microblade and powdered brows done. Technician used “permablend” and Li pigments and the colours used were “Ash Brown” and “Tina’s Gold” … I had 3 picoway laser treatments which turned them orange and then 4 Cutera enlighten sessions which is where I’m at now. It’s almost gone but in the bright lightening I can see grey/yellow/green-ish… Cutera doesn’t seem to help now. Any suggestions?!!
Results vary per person! Ask us any question 🙋♀️
Pico laser removal first pic about an hour after.
A tad yellow right after but I don't see it much now.
4 years of microblading (*not* powder brows) in second picture.
The pain was nothing and it was probably because the microblading was darker light. Felt like hot grease hitting my brows.
I am SO glad I got them removed.
Can't wait to get them cleaned up once healed.
I got powder brows today I absolutely hate them… way too sharp way too arched, they are not the shape I would ever do!
Hi, I’m looking for some honest feedback on whether I’m a good candidate for laser eyebrow tattoo removal.
I’ve had eyebrow tattooing for about 20 years. I stopped for a while, and years ago I had one laser session that turned my brows a soft brown, which eventually faded. Then in 2016 I started microblading and have been getting it done about once a year.
My most recent session was much thicker and more blocky than before, and I’ve been really unhappy with how they look. I even trimmed my brow hair to see the pigment underneath and it just made them look more stamped on.
I have two consultations today. One clinic wants to do a test spot first and wait a few weeks, I also have an appointment at Removary, so I’m not sure if they required spot treatments yet.
I’d really appreciate input from anyone with experience—whether you’ve gone through removal yourself or work in the field. Do you think I’m a good candidate, and is a test spot really necessary in a case like mine?
Thank you so much in advance 🙏
I’m 4 weeks out from my first session. The tech herself in the first session that she didn’t think I’ll need another one & she recommends waiting 6 weeks minimum.
I notice a slight shadow still where the ink was but it’s not very noticeable unless I’m looking at it very closely.
The thing is I’m moving out of the country next week so im feeling a bit rushed. I have noticed in the last week or two it has faded significantly. Should I get another session on week 5 or wait and give it time to fade more? and maybe just get another session later on if I feel I still feel I need it?
Any personal experiences or advice? Thank you!
I’d had 4 x sessions with a picosure laser and my brows had turned red. After one session at Removery I’m happy to see the red is gone. Now to get rid of this remaining ink giving a blocky shape to the front of my brow 😫
Pics are before and after session today.
Hi all,
after having made very uninformed decisions getting my microblading and - later - PowderBrows, I want to make sure the removal process is significantly better informed.
I have had 6 sessions of microblading/PowderBrows total between the years of 2018 and 2023. Probably a mix of different colors/companies including the dreaded PhiBrows and Beauty Angels. Rest I don't know.
I read a lot of positive experiences about Sasha at SpringMuse (NYC), Sasha at SknAllegiance (PA), and Dr. Adrian (DC). Travel and expenses are not the issue here (again - informed decision being the main thing).
Looking for any experiences with either of these providers! Has anyone done a complete removal process with either of them?
I also worry that the stronger lasers might permanently destroy my eyebrow regrowth? Is this something that could happen?
Thank you in advance!
Before, immediately after session 1, 2, 3 .. my brows look crazy bottom, I took in car immediately post laser. Each session 8 weeks apart. This time I’m waiting 12 weeks. Then I’ll decide on more removal or minimal hair strokes color correction and call it a day. Still terrified to do my eyeliner (plus liner is 450$ a session versus 250$ for brows)
