Service Description

Saline removal is basically reverse tattooing. The technique used is similar to whatever was used for initial pigment implementation. Saline removal can be done with a machine or a manual shading tool. The tool or a machine is used to open up the skin above the unwanted pigments. Then, a special removal solution based on salt – a saline solution – is injected into the cuts. The solution dries up the pigments. That’s the first half of the process. The cuts start to heal, a scab is formed. The pigments that were dried up get lifted and stuck in the scab, and once the scab falls off, the pigment goes with it. Several factors of the previous tattoo will determine the number of sessions required to significantly lighten the tattoo.
