What is the best method to remove microblading (done 1 month ago) without damaging hair follicles or scarring?

Question

I got microblading done a month ago and just want to go back to my natural brows. I've heard of saline/salt removal and pico laser, and glycolic peels. Any insight is helpful.

Great question. All of these methods can lighten the microblading but some are more invasive and require downtime. If you choose laser removal, your eyebrows will be shaved off and depending on the patient the hair does not always grow back the same. You will not be able to apply makeup to the area or pick at the peeling skin for a few weeks. Glycolic peels will be a quick facial and you will still be able to apply makeup within a day or two but it will take months as you will need a series of peels every 4-6 weeks. I always recommend saline removal because you will not have to shave your brows and you may only need 2-4 sessions. Consult with a professional microblading artist to find out a good estimate of how many removal sessions for your case.
