Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@jessicaspmu.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Why do I need to have my brows removed?

If you have old work done even if they have faded there could still be a lot of pigment in the skin. The skin can only hold so much pigment so by not removing old work any new pigment will not stay.

How many sessions will I need?

It all depends how much pigment is in the skin and how old the pigment is. Everyone is different so is hard to say. You could only need 1 session but it could take 3-4 sessions.

What does it look like after?

Straight after treatment your brows will look red, some hairs can also turn white from the laser. The redness will subsite after few days and makeup can be worn 48 hours afterwards although this must be applied with a clean brush or pencil. Any white hairs will return to their normal colour 2-4 weeks later.

Does it hurt?

The best way to describe it is like a hot elastic band flicking you. This is a very quick treatment so although a bit painful it only lasts 10 minutes.

Do I need a patch test?

Yes by law it's required a patch test is preformed at least 48 hours before your treatment. This also gives you an idea of the pain and talk in detail what's involved.

How long to I need to wait to get my brows redone?

Once I'm happy that enough pigment has been removed you will need to wait 8 weeks after your last laser session to have them redone.

Tattoo Removal Aftercare

Please follow the aftercare for best possible results

After treatment, your treated area may seem like a superficial burn wound. Many patients experience immediate whitening of the area. plus bruising. swelling, blistering, and scabbing.

Here are some basic guidelines to handling these side effects and achieving excellent laser tattoo removal results:

Keep the treated area clean and dry during the healing process. If necessary, clean the area gently with mild soap and water and pat dry.

Blistering is common after laser treatment and is a part of the natural healing process.

Do not be alarmed by blisters, but do protect the area and apply an ointment after the blisters have popped

You may apply cool compresses if necessary after the treatment to help reduce discomfort and inflammation in the unlikely event that this occurs. Do not pick any scabs that form. This step is very important to prevent scarring. Avoid any activity (such as shaving) in the treated area that may cause scabs to remove.

Feel free to shower 2 hours after treatment, but avoid high water pressure hitting the treated area. Also, do not soak the treated area until all scabs and blisters have completely healed - that means no baths. hot tubs, or swimming to prevent the chance of infection.

Exercise is generally safe after treatment, as long as all other after care instructions have been followed

Wear a sun block of SPF 30 or higher over the area for 3 months following treatment.

Avoid wearing make-up or creams near the treated area for the first 48 hours after treatment.

Itching is very common due to the dehydrating effect of the laser. Use Aquaphor.

Vitamin E ointment, or hydrocortisone cream to moisturise the area as it heals.

If the area looks infected (honey-coloured crusting. oozing, spreading redness) or you have an extreme reaction. immediately contact medical professionals for help.

Healing is usually complete in about 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the patient's after care. immune system, and level of treatment. Scarring. which can be hypertrophic or even keloid. can occur but is very rare. Loss of skin pigment (or excess gain of skin pigment) in the treated area may occur, but is temporary in almost all cases.
