Below you will find information on the following:
WHAT IS ANGEL REMOVAL?
The first tattoo removal designed specifically for eyebrows. Angel removal is a safe, manual technique, designed to remove tattoo pigment from the skin using a simple 3 step solution. Multiple sessions may be required. Little to no scabbing. Remove all pigments and all colors on the market.
The active ingredients in Angel Removal are the acids from antioxidant fruits such as rice, cocoa, and wheat, among others. No heavy metals are used. This is not a Saline Solution Removal this is a Lactic Acid Solution Removal.
NOTE: Lasers, also, require multiple sessions, cost more, may cause scarring, and does not remove all pigment colors such as yellow.

HEALING EXPECTATIONS
All client's brows heal different after removal.
My guarantee is that I can remove your botched brows; however, I can't guarantee how many sessions will be needed. You may need only 1 session and you may need 15 sessions. We have to take each session treatment by treatment about 2 weeks into the healing stage to see if you will need an additional session.
Multiple factors affect how a clients skin heals after removal such as client's skin, medication taken, how long you have had the brows, how deep the pigment for the brows were implanted, and the technique that was used.
Someone who has had their brows actually tattooed (not your semi-permanent technique) will take longer because the pigment is implanted deeper than with the semi-permanent technique.
You may see your brows appear lighter immediately after the treatment and then they may appear darker a few days later. This is due to the pigment coming closer to the surface of the skin to exit the body. This is what we want. This lets me know the process is working.
Therefore, I ask that you are patient with me and that you trust the process.
BOOKING INFORMATION

May require multiple sessions. Some may require 1 and others may require 10+ sessions, but I cannot guarantee how many you will need as everyone heals differently depending on multiple factors.
I guarantee my work, but I ask that you are patient with me as the removal process can take months and maybe even a year to get the desired results we need. I would love to work with you; but I ask if you are not willing to be patient then I may not be the artist for you. My end goal is to make sure you are happy while also ensuring the safety and integrity of your skin!
