TATTOO REMOVAL
TATTOO REMOVAL
Over 45 million people in the United States have tattoos. Of those, nearly 20% would like to have a tattoo removed. That means about 8 million people are looking for a safe, affordable and effective solution for unwanted tattoos. Eclipse MicroPen TR is the culmination of many years of research that has led to the perfect combination of technology and technique.
The METR (Mechanized Epidermal Tattoo Remover) is a highly effective system for removing tattoos and semi-permanent makeup. The procedure is performed by trained professionals in a medical environment under the supervision of a physician.
It's recommended that the treatment area should be no larger than 6" x 6"
METR Technique causes the tattoo pigment to rise to the surface during the healing process in the form of scabs. In approximately two weeks, the scabs will fall off along with the ink.
The treated areas need time to recover before addressing an adjacent zone. It's recommended to wait 8 weeks - depending on your individual body's healing process.
Several small tattoos can be treated at the same time. Ask your provider for details.
An entire tattoo is not treated in a single session. It is treated in segments to allow the area to heal correctly and reduce the risk of scarring. The process is repeated until the entire tattoo has been removed. During your consultation your practitioner will estimate the number of required treatments.
At Premier Medical Spa we use numbing cream prior to the procedure. Patients have reported minimal discomfort.
Yes, utilizing the METR removal technique, the pen targets all colors, ages, sizes, and styles of tattoo. Only natural products are used for the METR tattoo ink removal process.
Similar to the way a tattoo is applied, MicroPen TR utilizes very fine micro-needles to create precise wounds in the tattooed tissue while simultaneously introducing a proprietary solution to the treatment site. This proprietary solution is designed to ink while causing minimal inflammation to the surrounding tissue. In about two to three weeks after the healing process begins, the ink is lifted out from the epidermis along with a small scab. New skin with natural pigment replaces the old skin and foreign ink.
Our principal developers have refined the technology to deliver a precise amount of solution over an exact amount of time. By treating only a fraction of the skin in each session, the protocol ensures that the patient gets rid of the ink while minimizing the risk of side effects.
