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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, yes and yes!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, as indicated on the instruction for use inside the box.
