The Journey of Permanent Brow Makeup Removal: Starting Fresh with a New Canvas

Permanent makeup is a game-changer for so many—providing convenience, confidence, and a polished look every day. But sometimes, the journey takes an unexpected detour. Whether it’s because trends evolve, an artist didn’t meet expectations, or a client’s preferences change, many seek to remove their permanent brow makeup to start anew.

This blog explores why people opt for brow tattoo removal and reapplication, why the process varies in the number of sessions required, and how starting fresh can lead to beautiful, transformative results. Let’s dig in with Bella Mercado, Advanced laser technician at DAELA Portland.

Why Do People Choose to Remove Permanent Brow Makeup?

There are several reasons someone might choose to remove their permanent brow makeup:

1. Outdated Styles

Beauty trends change, and what was once in vogue may feel dated today. Brows that were once blocky or overly arched may no longer align with someone’s desired look.

2. Subpar Results

Unfortunately, not all permanent makeup experiences are created equal. Poorly shaped or uneven brows, unnatural color tones, or fading can leave clients dissatisfied.

3. Personal Preference Changes

As individuals grow and change, so do their aesthetics. What felt perfect years ago may no longer reflect how someone wants to express themselves.

4. Starting with a Clean Slate

For those looking to enhance their brows with newer techniques like ombre powder brows or nano brows, having a clean canvas ensures optimal results.

The Process of Permanent Brow Makeup Removal

At DAELA Cosmetic Tattoo, we use the advanced PicoWay laser removal process. This cutting-edge technology effectively targets pigment particles, breaking them down so the body can naturally flush them out.

Why Does the Number of Sessions Vary?

Every removal journey is unique, and several factors can influence how many sessions are needed:

  • Depth of Pigment Placement: Tattoos applied deeper into the skin take more sessions to fully remove.
  • Color of the Pigment: Some pigments, like darker browns or blacks, may respond faster to laser removal, while lighter or multi-colored pigments can be more stubborn.
  • Quality of the Ink: High-quality pigments often break down more easily, while older or less-refined inks may require additional sessions.
  • Healing Time Between Sessions: Proper spacing between treatments allows the skin to heal and ensures the body can effectively remove the pigment.

On average, it may take anywhere from 2–8 sessions for complete removal, but your technician will provide a personalized estimate based on your specific case.

Why Reapply After Removal?

It might seem counterintuitive to go through the removal process just to have brows reapplied, but here’s why it makes sense:

1. Precision Matters

Starting fresh with a clean slate allows a skilled artist to design brows that are perfectly tailored to your facial structure and preferences.

2. Advanced Techniques

The world of permanent makeup has evolved dramatically, with refined styles like ombre powder brows, combo brows, and machine nano brows offering hyper-realistic, natural results.

3. A Better Experience

Choosing the right artist and studio—like the master artists at DAELA—ensures that you’re in the hands of professionals who can achieve your dream brows with precision and care.

The Benefits of a Fresh Start

Embarking on the journey of removal and reapplication may seem daunting, but the results are worth it. Client’s report feeling renewed confidence and satisfaction when they finally achieve the brows they’ve always wanted.
