r/MicrobladingRemoval

These brows are about 6 to 7 years old. I have only gotten one touchup since the original microblading.

lately I have felt like my brows have been wearing me and what bothers me is the bulky front of the brows. I feel like I have pretty good hair without the microblading, but it does give me a great shape.

What would you do!

I have really been thinking about it!!

I have posted here before about my healing process after my first laser removal session. Today I went in for my second one and I'm hoping the results are just as good as after the first one.

First slide:

-Top photo is this morning in natural indoor light

-Second photo is 5 minutes post laser treatment in my car

- Last photo is 3 hours later with Aquaphor on them (also natural indoor lighting).

Second slide:

- Before removal (thick, dark grey brows)

- second photo is a few hours after laser treatment

-third photo is the next day

-last photo is 4 weeks post laser removal

Trust the process! Give it at least 6-8 weeks to see a significant difference. My results won't be the same as yours but I hope this helps anyone wanting to take the plunge. I'm glad I did.

Brief run down from my 1st post
- machine: deka toro
- had 2 passes: first for the black/grey, second for the redness

My eyebrows look much more orange irl, like the colour of this fox 🦊 but I am not mad at it. From afar, it looks like a light warm brown!

Healing was a breeze. My eyebrows first felt ‘sore’ the first two days but it was fine after. No skin barrier issues like bleeding or frosting of the hairs. I’ve been doing lymph node drainage massages from YouTube videos. Unsure if it’s doing anything but it’s not harming me (also very relaxing!)

I am not too sure about a 2nd session yet as I think a second laser will definitely turn them yellow and I’m not ready to deal with that yet. I am overall pretty damn happy. My entire face softened up and I feel like I have creative freedom with my make up and hair again!

She went over brows twice, different wavelengths. I didn’t think there was much of a difference but I’m blown away at the difference between where I was and where I am now. Will probably wait 17 weeks to go in for a third session.

5 q switch laser sessions and it hasn’t really changed with each session. Should I try going to removery?? I feel so lost on what to do

Hello, I had it professionally done at a super reputable place five days ago. So I’m not considered it was done improperly in any way. I’m just wondering if this is normal? I’ve got red upset skin under where the biggest flake has fallen off so far. Then on that same brow towards the tale there’s very little flaking at all. I’m scared it won’t flak off. Is it too early to tell? It just seems to be going so much slower than the rest. I’ll post both brows and a before image of where my brows where at just before I got the glycolic. I was at a light yellow orange stage which took two laser sessions to get to. I suppose I’m just scared this is gonna have faded unevenly and I’ll be left with one yellow tail. Not the worst thing in the world, but kind of hoping for opinions of people who’ve been through it if this is all normal and what I can expect.

I decided to have my microblading removed. While I was there I asked if they could also removal my freckle tattoos (awful decision to get them in the first place, I know).

Mainly I wanted them removed because they were always orange. They were never brown, and from the get go, they looked bad.

Now I had two laser sessions on them (most recently, 4 weeks ago) and they are completely yellow. When I followed up, I was told that I should've been made aware that this was a possibility prior to having them lasers and that unfortunately yellow pigment is next to impossible, so I might be stuck like this.

I'm super upset. I'm really hopeful there is something that can be done still.

I’ve been feeling quite self conscious about my eyebrows forever. The brows I have now are over 5 years old. Part of me wants to get an eyebrow transplant and it was suggested I should do some removal first since they’re grey toned. I have next to no eyebrow hair and I’m worried I’ll regret getting them removed to just look spooky, when I generally don’t absolutely hate them now.. does anyone feel better getting them removed, that have no eyebrow hair? Any regrets?

I had great results from just one visit to Removery a few days ago. They did three passes and it looked a little bit red initially but based on current level of fading, I don’t think I will need any more visits.

Not sure what kind of ink I have. Originally had them done in Turkey in early 2022. Did a touchup 6 months later in the United States and then another touchup in spring 2025. After the last touchup, I thought that they were too dark and blocky so I was excited to get them removed this year. Not sure if I will get them done again (nano?) or just let them be natural.

EDIT: looking forward to my brown brows growing back in. But I’m glad they are already darker than they appeared right after my laser session. Was a freaky look!

I’ve decided that I’m officially done with my removal journey!

2 saline sessions then 4 laser removals at Think Again Laser Clinic and I couldn’t be happier. I still have some slight shading under my left brow, but I truly don’t think anyone other than myself notices.

Feel free to check out some previous posts of mine to see the whole journey. I’m very grateful to finally be done with removal!!
