Tattoo Removal Without Laser

Tattoos are incredibly popular these days, and as more people get tattoos, we see more and more requests for tattoo removal or tattoo lightening services here at Adorn and at Studio Noir, our Oakland studio. You may be tired of an old tattoo and want to use that space for a new idea or passion. Rather than changing an old tattoo into something new, it may be easier to remove one design and completely start over. Another popular tattoo removal request is for eyebrow tattoo - previously applied permanent eyebrow makeup that needs to go. Eyeliner removal has been becoming more common as well and this is another service we can assist with. Whether you need the eyebrow tattoo removed because it was botched, or you no longer love the shape, or want to go back to a more natural look, Adorn Cosmetic offers tattoo removal that is safe and effective.

Tattoo Removal Methods

If you are looking for tattoo removal in Oakland, you may already be aware of the most common tattoo removal methods. Laser tattoo removal is the traditional method to get rid of a tattoo. However, it is not always effective – lasers work well on darker hues while lighter tattoos take more sessions for the pigment to completely vanish. Additionally, laser tattoo removal comes with multiple painful treatments, a slow fading process, and can actually push the unwanted ink particles deeper into the body. The worst case scenario is scarring and hyper and hypo pigmentation from laser, and in fact we see clients with this outcome who then need scar camouflage on a regular basis.

As an Oakland permanent makeup studio, we see hundreds of clients with tattoos of every color and design imaginable. Every tattoo has its own story, and for some, it’s time to let go or start over. We also hear many stories of laser tattoo removal gone wrong. To that end, we are happy to offer an effective alternative to laser tattoo removal for our clients in Oakland. 

Saline & Glycolic Acid Tattoo Removal

Both Saline and Glycolic Acid Tattoo Removal fall under the category of non-laser tattoo removal. These methods work by carefully opening the skin at the site of the tattoo and using saline or glycolic acid to bond with the ink particles. This method removes the ink in the same way it was implanted. In particular, non-laser treatments can be very effective when the area is saturated with ink. During your consultation we will advise you if this is the right method for you. 

We also advise our clients that the aftercare of Saline or Glycolic Acid Tattoo Removal is different than if you were to get laser tattoo removal. You will need to keep the area dry and allow the scab to fall off on its own. If you choose Adorn Cosmetic for non-laser tattoo removal, rest assured that we will provide complete aftercare instructions, to ensure best results.
