7018 Laser tattoo removal - PMU eyebrows
It starts off so nice. You see a fun promotion on social media from that new PMU artist who has an introductory discount. You've been wanting those ombre or powder eyebrows for a while and the goodwill factor gives you that final push over the finish line. But as soon as you see the end result you actually regret it. Unfortunately, this happens more often than you think. You're not the only one. Fortunately, failed ombre or powder eyebrows can still be redone or repaired. To do this, they must first be partially or completely removed. Of course, it is also possible that you have a few old or dull permanent eyebrows that you would like new ones to replace. Because eyebrows are fashion sensitive...
Medicadermis offers a solution that specifically focuses on lasering away eyebrows in (semi) permanent make-up. This treatment is especially effective for removing dark inks such as gray, dark-gray, black, and bluish PMU pigments for permanent makeup.
The effect of photoacoustic laser on PMU pigment: safe and secure
We use a photoacoustic NdYAG laser that emits specific light energy in short pulses. This energy is absorbed by the ink particles of the PMU, causing them to break down into small fragments that are then naturally removed from your body via the lymph. This makes it possible to gradually fade the unwanted PMU over several treatment sessions. Usually in two or three sittings.
Provided it is performed with the correct medically certified equipment and by a trained professional, the NdYAG laser treatment is a safe, non-invasive choice that requires no recovery time. This makes it attractive to those seeking an effective acne treatment without side effects or downtime. The technology has been a proven treatment among medical specialists for decades. There are no indications of an increased risk of oncological consequences for the skin.
The treatment: frequency, procedure and recovery
Steps of the Treatment
- Preparation: We start with thorough cleansing of the skin area to be treated to rid it of oils and makeup.
- The Treatment: During the session, the laser is moved accurately over the PMU eyebrows. You may feel a rapid series of light 'ticking', which is normal. The treatment usually does not last long, depending on the size and intensity of the PMU.
- After the Treatment: Immediately after the session, the treated area may be red and slightly swollen and small scabs may form later. We will apply cooling to reduce discomfort and you will receive specific aftercare instructions to promote recovery.
Before and after care
- Before you come: Avoid sun exposure on the treatment area to increase the effectiveness of the treatment and reduce the risk of side effects.
- After treatment: It is important to keep the treated area clean and protected from the sun. Avoid applying makeup to the area until it is completely healed.
Contraindications
Not everyone is a suitable candidate for this treatment. Contraindications include, but are not limited to:
- Active skin infections or inflammations in the area to be treated.
- Recent tanning or use of self-tanners.
- Certain medical conditions or medications that increase skin sensitivity.
Before treatment, we will perform a thorough evaluation of your skin and medical history to ensure this treatment is safe and effective for you. Our goal is to help you achieve the results you want with the highest care and attention to your safety and comfort.
Prescribing anesthetic cream is reserved for the GP.
For optimal comfort during treatment, your doctor can prescribe lidocaine cream. You can submit a request for this to your GP and then collect it from your pharmacy. It is important that you apply this cream at home under an occlusive plaster as the cream needs time to work. These can be found, for example, under the brand Leukoflex or 3M as an adhesive plaster and are also available from pharmacies. Ideally, you apply the cream an hour before the treatment so that the full numbing effect is achieved.
Although the treatment itself is short and can essentially be performed without anesthesia, the use of lidocaine cream provides an extra layer of comfort, especially for sensitive areas. By taking this preliminary step you will help minimize any discomfort during the procedure.
Remember that the exact instructions for applying the cream and the duration of application depend on the advice of your doctor and the specific properties of the cream. If you have any questions about how to apply the cream correctly or about the treatment itself, please feel free to contact us in advance. We are there to answer your questions and ensure that the treatment is as pleasant as possible.
Other treatment options for PMU removal
Actually, there are no serious other options. With a bit of luck, your eyebrows can be touched up by another PMU artist. This is only possible after 6 weeks after the PMU eyebrows have been applied. Or you can let them fade naturally since it is semi-permanent ink that is used today. But usually people don't see that. Because then you'll soon be walking around with those eyebrows for 2 years.

With medicadermis you take good care of yourself
In the competitive market of beauty and skin treatments, it is crucial to find a trusted partner. One that not only excels in quality and service, but that also uses the best and proven technology. Because when it comes to your health and appearance, you shouldn't take risks. Medicadermis distinguishes itself through its dedication to high standards. Both in knowledge and skills and in the application of clinically proven equipment and treatments. You will not easily find hypes with a 'latest and greatest' promise at medicadermis, because it takes time before scientific evidence is available. Only then do we decide to offer something.
The reality of the beauty industry
The beauty industry is now flooded with all kinds of laser, IPL and other types of devices, many of which do not meet the quality requirements according to our Western medical standards. There is also often no scientific evidence for treatments. Variation in equipment, lack of basic dermatological knowledge, but also insufficient training and experience of the practitioner can lead to unsatisfactory results. Even to an increased risk of side effects or skin damage for the patient.
Feel beautiful and confident with the quality of medicadermis.
We go for the capital K when it comes to quality and work with, among others, the M22 Stellar from Lumenis. This system is used worldwide for its superior performance in hospitals and clinics by dermatologists. The M22 stands for reliable treatment for a range of skin treatments, including pigment spots. And finally, not unimportant: our equipment receives frequent technical maintenance. Because just as you cannot write sharply with a blunt pencil, an uncalibrated laser or used IPL tube is not effective.
Our skin therapist has years of experience, but continuously enriches her knowledge and skills with training and education. Our choice of equipment and expert care enable us to provide you with safe, proven effective and personalized treatments. Your (skin) needs are guaranteed to be in good hands at medicadermis.
