Burgundy brows when I asked for dark brown. Would a TCA peel remove them? (Photo)

April 17, 2015
Asked By:kc727 in American Canyon, CA

I know it's difficult to know what the final outcome will be since I just had my brows done yesterday, but I am noticing the ink looks BURGUNDY! I have dark hair and the techassured me she used a dark brown. I emailed her with the photo and she said it looks just like regular swelling and wait a couple of weeks before seing the final color. Being that they are not healed yet, can I use glycolic acids or TCA peels to remove them since it's still fresh ink? Thank you.

I had my eyebrows done on this Sunday & they are far to dark for my face & stick out like a sore thumb. Any suggestion? (photo)
K. Roxanne Grawe, MD (license permanently revoked) says:

There isn't really anything you can do immediately after the tattooing to lighten the color.  It will take about a week for the top layer of your skin to peel off and the tattoo below will be much more dull and natural looking.  At first it appears very brilliant and this is normal....
