Update on Saline Removal

My self esteem is at an all time low and I'm honestly so depressed... I feel like I've ruined my face and confidence forever. I've become reclusive and sulky and I find myself living in constant regret... any words of encouragement would be appreciated.

This is a very emotional post for me because I'm a guy and I've always been insecure about my brows, especially in the past 2 years as they'be been thinning. I'm not saying you can't get good results from microblading, but from my experience, no one tells you how they look when they fade and had I known that or had seen photos, I would have never done it. I had mocroblading done 3 months ago and while I liked it after initially, my oily skin didn't mix well with the ink and the hair like stokes faded to blurry lines.
My eyebrow hairs go through a cycle of falling out and regrowth that stresses me out like no other and present day, I can say that I am OK with my left brow, but my right brow is a mess. There are 3 strokes my artist drew at the beginning of my right brow where I never had hair before and they were so unnatural looking that I'm in the process of getting them removed right now, and it is a process. I got the saline & salt removal process by Carol Packman in Los Angeles who seems to have quite the fan base here and I'm excited to begin removing them but they look so red and worse than ever and I just needed an outlet and support and encouragement from anyone else who's done this because I'm being very hard on myself right now.

I am sorry that you feel this way, but don't look too bad in the picture!
Please keep update! I am thinking of remove mine too:(

I just had mine done yesterday and don't want to go out in public. Please tell me how to purchase this kit!
I would recommend seeking a professional who can help you with removal ASAP, since yours is fairly fresh
I went to Carol November 18 to make corrections with the Saline. They look really bad right now but am hoping for the best. When did you have the Saline Removal done? How is it healing?
Be ready for them to be pink and fleshy, I had mine done on the 11th. Mine healed OK for the first round, definitely got some pigment out but now it just looks like a dark skin and it's hard to conceal.
Thank you. I'm still waiting for scabs to fall off. The pigent was not too dark since I'm blonde so I'm croswing my fingers. How many treatments will yours take do you know?
You're lucky your pigment isn't dark! I'm so self-conscious all the time, it's become very depressing... I think I will need at least 2 more :/
How are you doing? Did you get a second treatment?
I'm waiting until the end of the year until I can get a second treatment, but I think I am going to - it's still pretty red and I do the best I can to cover up with makeup. How are you doing?
I have not had this procedure done but I do have thin eyebrows and patches where they do not grow. For the past 2 months I have used a product called Doo Gro on my brows at night after I shower. I use the blue gel in the tub (white tub w/black lid), not the yellow liquid bottle. I brush my eyebrows and then with a flat brush cake the gel on top of them. I leave the gel on until i'm ready to go to bed and then take a tissue and dab it off. I brush my brows one more time after that. I have noticed a great improvement in growth and thickness. The little tub cost about $6 I think (from Walmart), and it will last a long time. I would suggest using it every night to see results. Anyway, I hope this can help you or someone else out. And one other important thing, make sure if you use moisturizer or any products on your face that you do that before putting this stuff on your brows. If you don't, you may end up wiping the gel on other parts of your face by accident (I've done this).
any updates? I’m doing laser removal, have seen some fading but not they are a brown rusty color.
