Eyebrow tattoo color turned into red?

Question

Greetings! I am looking for a practitioner who works on eyebrow tattoo removal (Red color) in Brooklyn or NYC. I have heard PICO laser would work. Thank you.

Thank you for your question. I do not recommend having laser removal on tattooed makeup. This is because most of the ink used for tattoo makeup is not the same as used on the body as they contain metals, such as iron. This can result in the tattoo turning a rusty brown or black color. The best treatment for this is to tattoo over it in a normal color. Best of Luck!

WE do not recommend using laser for cosmetic eyebrow tattoos.  They usually turn an unattractive orange color due to the metal pigments they can contain.  You may want to find an experienced cosmetic makeup tattoo artist to tattoo over this in a normal color.  You will be much happier.
