What cream can I use to help fade semi-permanent eyebrow tattoo? (Photo)

Question

I was happy with my semi-permanent eyebrow tattoo, but since then I have discovered an eyebrow serum that caused my eyebrow hair to grow back in. Now that my hair is back, it's obvious that the eyebrow tattoo was drawn well above where my actual eyebrow is. What cream can I buy to speed up the fading of the semi-permanent tattoo? I've heard I should get Retinol, but that's just an anti-wrinkle cream... I've also read I should use Retin-A, but that's only available with prescription here. Thanks!

This can be removed with tattoo removal. It may take a series of treatments. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. Picosure has a short pulse duration that exceeds photothermal action and results in an intense photomechanical impact. This adds up to faster results and fewer treatments when compared to other tattoo removal methods. It works best on darker inks such as black and blue. The number of sessions required to remove this tattoo can range from 2-3 sessions. I recommend you see an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you.  Best of Luck!
