Saline removal draws pigment out of the skin using an all-natural saline solution. It isn't the fastest way to erase a tattoo, but it's a safe, controlled way to lighten or correct permanent makeup and small tattoos — with fewer risks of hypo- or hyper-pigmentation, blistering, and scarring than laser removal. It's safe for all skin types, and the area can be re-tattooed once it has fully healed.

How Saline Removal Works

A specialized, all-natural saline solution — finely milled sea salt, purified water, lemon and orange seed extract, and aloe — is implanted over the existing permanent makeup or small tattoo. This breaks up the healed pigment and lifts it toward the surface by osmosis. The pigment heals into a scab, and when the scab falls off, pigment falls away with it, leaving the tattoo lighter.

Emergency Saline Removal

Emergency removal must be done within the first 72 hours after a PMU appointment. Using a saline solution, we can lift and draw out fresh pigment before it sets into the skin. It is only for emergencies — a wrong color, a wrong shape, or immediate regret — works only on fresh pigment (not older tattoos), and the sooner it's done, the better the result.

What to Expect

Most clients need three to four sessions before they see the result they want, with appointments spaced five to six weeks apart. How many sessions you'll need depends on the type of ink used, the age of the tattoo, and the integrity of your skin. With saline removal, expect the tattoo to become noticeably lighter — a full erasure should not be expected.

Your questions, answered.

Is saline removal safer than laser?

Saline removal carries fewer risks of hypo- or hyper-pigmentation, blistering, and scarring than laser tattoo removal, and it's safe for all skin types.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients need three to four sessions, spaced five to six weeks apart. The exact number depends on the ink, the age of the tattoo, and your skin.

Can a fresh permanent makeup mistake be fixed?

Yes — that's what Emergency Saline Removal is for. It must be done within 72 hours of the PMU appointment, while the pigment is still fresh and hasn't fully set into the skin.

Will my tattoo be completely gone?

Saline removal lightens and corrects a tattoo rather than fully erasing it. Expect the tattoo to become noticeably lighter so it can be left as is or re-tattooed once healed.
