How Laser Eyebrow Tattoo Removal Works at Our Covent Garden Clinic
At GHB Clinic, we take a precise approach to fading cosmetic tattoos such as microblading or powder brows. Unlike body tattoos, PMU pigments are placed closer to the skin’s surface and often include colours like red, brown, or pink.
To treat them safely, we use the Candela PicoWay laser, which delivers ultra-short pulses to break down pigment without damaging the skin or natural brow hairs. Each treatment plan is customised according to your skin type, ink composition, and treatment goals.
Pico Laser for Cosmetic Eyebrow Tattoos
Our PicoWay system targets cosmetic pigments gently and precisely, ideal for microblading, nano brows, and other permanent makeup tattoos. Settings are personalised based on your skin type and ink colour, with special care taken to preserve natural brow hair.
Works for:
- Microblading & powder brows
- Cosmetic tattoos (eyebrows, eyeliner)
- All Fitzpatrick skin types
- Faded or overdone permanent makeup

How We Approach Eyebrow Tattoo Removal
Every session is tailored for:
- Pigment type – microblading, PMU, or traditional cosmetic tattoo
- Skin tone – safe for all Fitzpatrick types (I–VI)
- Tattoo depth and age – to prevent overtreatment and protect skin health
Eyebrow Tattoo Removal Before and After - What To Expect
With each session, eyebrow tattoos gradually fade. Lighter strokes from microblading usually respond quickly, while deeper or older pigments may need more sessions.
Most clients begin to notice visible lightening after 1–2 treatments, with progressive fading over the course of 4–8 sessions.
Our goal is to achieve a natural-looking result, whether that’s complete removal or just softening an overly dark or uneven brow.
Why Specialist Knowledge Matters
- Eye-area safety protocols protect your vision
- Cosmetic pigments can darken or shift colour if treated incorrectly
- Delicate skin and brow hairs must be preserved
- Incorrect laser settings can cause hyperpigmentation or scarring
- Extra care is required when treating darker skin tones, as clients with higher Fitzpatrick types (IV–VI) are more prone to pigmentation changes and scarring if not treated with the right settings and technology
