Laser permanent make-up removal in Petah Tikva

During Pico laser treatment, the laser beam acts for an extremely short time and at high intensity. This beam is absorbed by the pigments in the permanent make-up significantly more than by the surrounding skin. As a result, the colour particles break down and are removed from the body through the lymphatic system or through the formation of scabs.

The unique advantage of the Pico laser, which operates at four different wavelengths (532nm, 595nm, 660nm and 1064nm), is that it prevents unexpected colour changes – a common problem in tattoo and permanent make-up removal. Sometimes, a red pigment may turn green during removal with a single-wavelength laser, which would require further treatment at another wavelength. Using four wavelengths allows even removal of most colours without residue, except for extremely light shades such as yellow and white.

For complete removal of permanent make-up, we usually recommend four to six treatments, with 5 to 8 weeks between sessions. The number of treatments required depends on factors such as the type of pigment, its depth and the age of the permanent make-up, and is therefore determined during a personal consultation.

With each treatment, the laser gradually lightens the pigments, so initial results can be noticed as early as after the first treatment.

With the Pico laser, permanent make-up can be removed or corrected gently and effectively from various areas of the face, including the eyebrows (microblading), eyelids and lips. The number of treatments required depends on factors such as the shade of the pigment, its depth and the age of the permanent make-up, with the aim of lightening it completely until it becomes invisible.

The following can be removed:

• Permanent eyebrow make-up (microblading)
• Pigments in the lash area
• Lip liner
• Cosmetic beauty spots (permanent make-up)

The sensation of pain during treatment varies from person to person. While some patients feel nothing, others may experience a burning or stinging sensation during and after the treatment, symptoms that may also appear during the healing process.

We recommend applying a numbing cream to the treated area before the treatment begins, in order to reduce sensitivity to pain.

During the personal consultation, the professional team at Dermacare will give you a detailed explanation of the course of the treatment, which does not require anaesthesia or the use of medication.

Complete removal of permanent make-up usually requires 4 to 6 treatments, with 5 to 8 weeks between each treatment.

The number of treatments varies from person to person, depending on factors such as the colour of the pigment, its size, its depth and the age of the permanent make-up. During the personal consultation with our doctors, the permanent make-up will be assessed and a personal treatment plan will be tailored accordingly, including the number of treatments required, the intervals between them and the expected cost.

Complete removal of permanent make-up usually requires 4 to 6 treatments, with 5 to 8 weeks between each treatment. The exact number of treatments is determined individually, depending on factors such as the colour of the pigment, its size, its depth and the age of the permanent make-up. The waiting times between treatments also vary according to the skin's individual healing rate.

At the first follow-up session after the treatment, the progress of the skin's healing is checked. Because the pigments lighten gradually with each treatment, a significant change can be seen as early as after the first session.

Even when laser treatment is performed professionally, side effects may in rare cases appear, such as the formation of scabs or scars, changes in pigmentation, or temporary hypo/hyperpigmentation (lightening or darkening of the skin), which usually disappears on its own within 3–4 months.

If you are prone to pigmentation disorders or scarring, it is important to inform the practitioner in advance. During the personal consultation, you will receive a detailed explanation of the possible risks and side effects of the treatment.

In general, the area treated with laser should be protected for about a week. To speed up the healing process, it is recommended to use a suitable ointment, such as Bepanthen Plus. To prevent changes in pigmentation, it is important to avoid exposure to UV radiation for several weeks. Visits to a tanning studio should be avoided completely before and after the treatment.

As long as the area is cared for and protected from the sun, you can return to your routine immediately after the treatment.

During laser treatment, the permanent make-up pigments gradually lighten until they disappear completely. Initial results can be noticed just a few days after the first PicoSure laser treatment. However, complete removal of permanent make-up usually requires 4 to 6 treatments, with 5 to 8 weeks between each treatment.
