WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • The number of treatments required depends on

  • the type of your permanent make-up or microblading

  • the depth of your permanent make-up or microblading

  • the pigment density of your permanent make-up or microblading

  • the age of your permanent make-up or microblading

On average, your permanent make-up or microblading will no longer be visible after 2 to 5 treatments. There should be a break of approximately 4 to 6 weeks between treatments. During this time, it is important that you help by caring for your treated skin in order to optimise the result. We will give you care tips and provide you with detailed information so that you can achieve the best possible result.

The price of a permanent make-up removal treatment depends on the size and complexity of your permanent make-up. We will inform you of the price and the time needed during your consultation.

YOUR TREATMENT

We can gently remove your permanent make-up or microblading. Using the most innovative lasers on the market for removing tattoos, we can gently remove multi-coloured permanent make-up without damaging the surrounding tissue.

Most people do not find lasering as painful as the permanent make-up itself. Our customers report more often about the anticipation of the faded permanent make-up than the few barely painful minutes during the treatment.

We summarise the exact procedure of your treatment for you:

1
2
Documentation

Before your first session we photograph your permanent make-up – so you can see exactly how it fades from session to session.

3
Treatment

After disinfecting and cooling the tattooed area, the laser treatment begins, which only takes a few minutes depending on the size of your permanent make-up. The treated area is then cooled and creamed with a cooling ointment. The skin area usually heals without scarring after 1 week.

4
Care

Your help in caring for your treated skin is also very important for the best possible result! We will give you care tips and provide you with detailed information so that you can achieve the best possible result!

TECHNOLOGY

We only use state-of-the-art laser systems that have been developed for the removal of multi-coloured permanent make-up and microblading.

Conventional lasers

Standard lasers offer just two wavelengths (1064 nm and 532 nm), which limits them to dark and red pigments.

Our technology

Thanks to the third wavelength of 694 nm we can also clear demanding pigment shades – from blue and turquoise to green – reliably.

HOW DOES PERMANENT MAKE-UP REMOVAL WORK?

When your make-up is tattooed, colour pigments are inserted into the middle layer of the skin.

These colours cannot be broken down by the body. They therefore remain permanently in the skin and ensure the make-up result.

When removing permanent make-up, the various layers of colour particles are heated to a high temperature with the laser and destroyed in such a way that they break down into several small pigments.

The colour pigments broken down by the professional laser are foreign bodies for the human body and are therefore removed via the lymphatic system and excreted from the body.

Frequently asked questions

How long does PMU removal treatment take?

The treated skin area will usually only heal after a few days (it usually takes between 5-10 days). There should be 4 to 6 weeks between treatments to allow the skin and immune system to recover. It is important that the wound is completely healed before the next treatment takes place. In total, we usually need from 3-6 treatments for complete removal.

How long does the skin need to regenerate after PMU removal?

The normal reaction of the skin after treatment is Redness, swelling, possibly crust formation. After a few days will the treated site be healed. Between the treatments should be from 4 to 6 weeks, so that the skin and the immune system can recover. It is important that the wound is completely healed before the next treatment can takes place.

What side effects may occur by pmu removal?

As with any aesthetic treatment, there is also a risk in permanent make-up removal. However, getting a tattoo away is the safest and most skin-friendy removal method. The treated skin is reddened and may swell. In rare cases, bleeding may occur. If a crust forms, it should not be removed, as there is a risk of scarring. It is important to follow the care instructions of our laser therapists.

What should I avoid after PMU laser treatment?

When itching is as gentle as possible, do not scratch the treated area and remove the scab (or blisters) mechanically. After a few days, they shall heal completely. During the laser treatment to remove the PMU we ask you to refrain from sunbathing, solarium and peelings. Let LASER ÄSTHETIK personally advise you on the right care and after-care for your skin.

What should I watch before and after PMU removal treatment?

Light-sensitive drugs that are not taken regularly should be avoided before treatment. The affected area must be kept dry and absolutely clean for two days after the treatment in order not to expose it to infection. The permanent make-up should not be exposed to the strong sun during the treatment period.

Where in Essen can I have permanent make-up removed by laser?

At LASER ÄSTHETIK we specialise in the laser removal of permanent make-up and are based centrally in Essen-Rüttenscheid. The same practice also removes and lightens tattoos and performs permanent hair removal – with up-to-date laser technology matched to your skin.

When can I not have a laser PMU removed?

Your safety comes first: before removing permanent make-up we clarify your medical history with a short questionnaire. We do not laser during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and with haemophilia, viral hepatitis, cardiovascular disease or epilepsy treatment is only possible once your doctor has given the go-ahead. Our team will advise you honestly on whether PMU removal is an option for you.

Can all colours of a permanent make-up be removed?

The laser pigmentation removal can remove allmost all colour pigments. Black or light pink, brown and red pigmatations can be removed most easily. There may accure a colour-change during the treatment.

How does the laser work during PMU removal treatment?

During the permanent make-up removal, the pigmentation/ink is targeted and "torn" with the laser light. These fragmented color pigments dissolve a cleansing process in the body so that the color pigments are then removed via the lymphatic system.

Will the health insurance funds cover part or all of the costs?

As a rule, health insurance funds do not cover the cost of removing a tattoo. An exception (with partial food takeover) may exist in a private health insurance. If you are interested in this, we recommend that you discuss this with your health insurance company prior to starting treatment.

How much does a PMU removal treatment cost?

The price for a permanent make-up removal dependents on the size and intensity of the color of your pigmenation. At LASER ÄSTHETIK, we offer you a very good price-performance ratio and only the highest quality of treatment. Please make a free consultation with us, or write us an e-mail.
