For safe and effective removals of unwanted cosmetic tattoos I recommend @thinkpigmentremover as my favourite choice. I’m not sponsored or endorsed to recommend this product for removals but i've had the best results and relatively fast which is a bonus for clients.

I have been using THink Pigment Remover for a few years now and it is by far the best removal solution I have found. Thank you THink Pigment Remover for giving me this incredible tool to create award winning results! It gives my clients fast effective results, with minimal downtime. Pigment is wiped away on the day and my clients and I are ecstatic with the results.

Due to there being so many different pigments present, we decided to do a session of removal before a colour correction. Using THink Pigment Remover, I was able to draw out the pigments simultaneously. We will now be able to achieve a much better result with the colour correction at her next appointment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS!
Have questions about THink Pigment Remover? We have answers!
Have questions about THink Pigment Remover? We have answers!
Do I need training to use it?
This product is for professional use only. You should have the relevant training and knowledge required to perform a cosmetic tattoo removal procedure.
We have put together a comprehensive training course that covers, the skin, pigment, removal options, and technique for ensuring best results and skin health when performing cosmetic tattoo removal. You can find our removal course here!
The procedure involves skin penetration and the technician should be qualified for this, and the premises licensed for skin penetration.
How do you use it?
The pigment is removed (lifted) exactly the same way it went in, using a cosmetic tattoo needling device. A digital machine such as the Nouveau Contour iQ is ideal, together with a suitable needle cartridge such as a 5 Shader. THink Pigment Remover can also be applied as a wash over the required removal area after the machine tattooing/needling process to maximise pigment extraction.
Removal procedures require careful consideration of skin integrity, pigment depth and realistic expectations. The THink Pigment Remover product is designed to do most of the heavy lifting for you. As such, technicans should be cautious in their application techniques so as to not comprimise the integrity of the areas being worked.
If you do not have the relevant training to be using this product please see our Cosmetic Tattoo Pigment Removal Course.
Can I just apply it topically (i.e. on the skin surface)?
This is unlikely to work. The THink Pigment Remover needs to make direct contact with the pigment and the penetration of the needles through the epidermis both helps carry the remover to the pigment location, and also mechanically break down the skin microstructure encapsulating the pigment particles.
What is it made of?
A primary active ingredient is a weak acid (glycolic acid) and the full ingredient list is on the bottle.
The proportions and chemical balance, the method of preparation, and extensive trials have been conducted to optimise the different components, all proved critical to the final formulation.
If it is a glycolic acid, do I have to be careful in handling it?
A Material Safety Data Sheet is provided with each bottle.
It is a weak acid and should be treated as such. It is no more acidic than some foods and drinks.
Is it vegan, gluten free and animal cruelty free?
Yes, yes and yes! THink Pigment Remover is vegan, gluten free and animal cruelty free.
The product was strictly (safely) tested on willing humans!
What cosmetic tattoos can I use it on?
THink Pigment Remover can be used on all brow, lip, camouflage and areola treatments should be suitable for treatment.
The effectiveness may depend on the depth of the original pigment placement; if it has gone too deep and into the dermis it will not be reached with the maximum of 0.5mm needle penetration.
Unusual pigments, prior laser treatment, and the prior development of scar tissue may also impact effectiveness.
Can I use it on eyeliner?
This should only be attempted by a highly experienced technician.
We recommend particular caution with use on eyeliner and no remover solution should come into contact with the eye. As per the MSDS, flush with water if this occurs.
The treatment should be particularly gentle and include all the normal precautions used in cosmetic tattooing of the eyelids.
Can I use it on body art tattoos?
Body art tattoos are typically deeper, with the pigment being in the dermis, which is why they do not fade. THink is conducting trials on body art tattoo removal to test both effectiveness and safety. Until those trials are complete, we do not recommend using the remover on body art.
Can I use topical anaesthetic?
Yes, however the in-treatment gel should be epinephrine-free.
This vasoconstrictor (epinephrine) tends to limit the movement of fluid and therefore release of pigment through the epidermis.
How many treatments will the client need to remove a cosmetic tattoo?
That depends on the tattoo age, type of pigment, extent of any scar tissue (e.g. from microblading) and skill of the technician.
THink typically finds 3 treatments adequate, with a small amount of pigment remaining.
Typically, a lot of pigment comes out in the first and second treatments. If it does not, the technician should investigate further the nature and history of the tattoo they are treating, possibly reassess their technique, and seek further advice from THink or other suitably qualified professionals.
There is no guarantee the remover will work for all situations.
Should I do a patch test on the client?
Yes, as indicated on the instruction for use inside the box.
