The good news is that these types of tattoos fade quicker usually than a regular tattoo. In 6 months it might be more acceptable. Laser removal is not great in this area because of risk of losing more brow hair and the shape of the brow.
What can I do to fade my permanent makeup eyebrow tattoo?
i had a tattoo 4 years ago and it was perfect, it just needed to be redone.
i went somewere to have it reedone but she made it very thick and now i hate it. it's been one week but i want some lines to fade away.
i don't have any idea what to do - is it possible with salt water or fade creams...? help!

I am a permanent make-up artist and have been doing these procedure's for 15 years. I have had class's to remove bad work. It works very well. It is just like the tattooing but the product that is injected removes the pigment. and its safe and fast

Of course the most important consideration when going into something like permanent cosmetics is to understand the permanence of the procedure and to find a reputable experienced person in the first place in order to avoid a permanent 'mistake.' You might seek the help of a permanent cosmetic professional who has been trained and has experience in salt-water pigment reduction. The Society of Permanent Cosmetic Professionals - SPCP - is a good source of information for anyone interested in permanent cosmetics. One week may be too soon to assess the result of a cosmetic tattoo, as the skin has not completed its cycle of cellular re-growth yet. A doctor who specializes in laser tattoo removal should be asked to evaluate the situation of the 'too dark' eyebrows. Many times laser tattoo removal is not feasible for cosmetic tattoos, as typically the pigments contain some titanium dioxide and may not react well to the high intensity heat/light of a laser.

The substance that is using to fade permanent cosmetics is 50% glycolic acid, the same basic stuff that is used in skin peels. It needs to be a somewhat thick formulation, not watery, and it is injected using the same technique as when the permanent cosmetics were injected. The sooner it is done after tattooing the better it works. This will result in extremely irritated skin for a good long while, but it works well.
