During your consultation Abigail Jade will assess your tattoo or SPMU and provide a personalised treatment plan.

Laser removal can cause some discomfort, often described as similar to the sensation of a rubber band snapping against the skin.

For SPMU eyebrow removal, the treatment area is smaller, so discomfort is typically minimal and brief.

You may apply your own numbing cream to your tattoo 30 minutes prior to the appointment if needed.

Temporary side effects can include redness, swelling, and minor blistering. These typically subside within a few days.

The ND:YAG laser is highly effective on a range of ink colors, including black, blue, red, and green. SPMU pigments, including brow pigments, often respond well to treatment, though results may vary depending on the pigment’s composition and depth. Lighter colours, such as white or yellow, may require additional sessions or fade less completely.

When removing SPMU eyebrow tattoos, the ND:YAG laser is precisely targeted to break down the pigment without harming the surrounding skin or hair follicles. Your natural eyebrow hair will remain unaffected. However, sometimes the hairs may look white or bleached immediately after treatment. This is a temporary effect caused by dehydration from the laser and will resolve as the hairs regain moisture over the following hours - days.
