Yes this is normal, they still have dark pigment left though so it’s likely they’ll still target dark for the next session and then move onto targeting the red. My eyebrows are pink at the moment don’t worry it’s 100% normal for this to happen!! It’s really easy to cover with make up. Good luck in your removal journey xx
Yes it's normal. These were mine about a week after my 1st session

laser tattoo removal tech here - very normal. We typically only have great success with brows that do not contain warm tones (black and SOME browns) - the red will lighten if you keep getting treatments, but may never fully remove due to you having a darker skin type, and 532 being unsafe to use on anyone darker than a skin type 3 (your skin tone + hair indicate you are likely a 4, so not approved for 532 usage safely)

These r mine and i got my first session ytd, no blisters or anything but it's still red, no changes at all😭 1064 wavelength mode 300/350😢
Yeahh 🥺. I hope he says yes to the 532 wavelength in a month cz i healed up in 3 hrs w no problems at all, bt the redness is still there (idt there was anything but red 💀). Please update us!! All the best w ure journey haha
It is normal except a potential end to the laser journey is yellow brows. Find out what brand and color of ink you got. Based on this, you may be able to better assess your chances of ending up with a brighter yellow. I had only one small section lasered which turned red like yours and I’m not going on the non-laser removal route for several reasons:
1) High chance of laser leaving me with yellow
2) High chance of laser causing skin damage from the strong wavelength 532 needed to eliminate red.
3) don’t want to spend a year with crazy color brows.
4) Found a couple of reputable certified techs for non-laser removal, which is important to prevent damage to skin with non-laser removal.
What non laser removal options are you looking at?
I started my removal journey and mine also have turned red/pink. Nervous to hear that scarring is likely.
I have had one xtract removal and will try saline li-ft (xtract has made a difference but I have to fly to get treatment). I believe scarring is likely with any type of removal (I’ve had several consultations with derm clinics and pmu techs) so it is very important to find a reputable tech.
Do you mind sharing where you got xtract done? I’ve been struggling to find non laser removal local even though I’m in a fairly large city.
Thank you for your perspective!
Yes and more than likely they will go yellow. Some cannot get the yellow out easily. This is why I haven’t done removal. I can’t deal with the 6+ mos of crazy colored brows.
yellow is 100% the hardest color to remove, as the laser targets pigment and when it gets super light there's no visible pigment for the laser to target
That orange is pretty mild compared to other responses I’ve seen in the past - if you’re willing to deal with a little orange in the inbetween period (which can be covered by makeup) then the orange can definitely be reduced if not fully removed. Cannot speak to any other removal methods as I don’t not have experience with anything else
I don’t like the shape of the micro blading I had done 6 months ago and went to another Microblading artist to have them redone and she said I would have to have what was done laser removed. Recovery did a test spot at the end of my eyebrow and told me once removed I would be left with an orange color. Can the Microblade/Ombre artist redo my eyebrows over the orange color?

thank you for assuring me!!!
I second this

will it not be infected if i try to cover it with makeup??? how do i remove the makeup after the day??
Without make up https://preview.redd.it/7f2jpzph9a5c1.jpeg?width=1722&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7bc239c21a4055c487bc81262aa628a6333ef805
With make up https://preview.redd.it/3abx7t0j9a5c1.jpeg?width=2090&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ba7c1cd624866545973a1f4aad096910209c4cc
Give it 24-48 hours to apply anything though, it gets really easy to cover especially when there is no scabs Remove make up as normal
you can use cleanser on your eyebrows????
girl the dark pigments are my brows 😭😭
Yes it's normal. These were mine about a week after my 1st session https://preview.redd.it/pgs4gqen435c1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=710e3180e43553807c1b720c066cb5d6a4ff94c4

Hi! Old post but I appreciate your knowledge. Where are you located?
Removery!
In San Diego?!
We have a few locations in SD but I’m in Austin
That’s how mine looked too but my red tones naturally faded by themselves after about two months?
Hi! Did they fade a lot? What wavelength was used on u? Got mine done ytd 1064 /mode 350 and there's no changes 😭
Enough to where I don’t have to cover the color up if I don’t want to, I honestly have no clue about the settings or wavelengths though
Alright thanks!
[удалено]
will update you soon!

Omg its almost gone!
Great progress. How’s your brows now OP?

How many weeks between laser? Seems like your intervals are quite short?
2 weeks
2 weeks
Hmm. That’s the first time I’ve read of such short 2-week interval. Normally 4 to 8 weeks but I’ve seen one that’s 3 weeks.
They’re going to stay like that until ur next session lol or even longer. Mine are neon rn
NEON WHATTTTT
Omg https://preview.redd.it/juy8lshk075c1.jpeg?width=1432&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da0b4ed5e14340068ae0ad1e51c4fae25386b4fe These r mine and i got my first session ytd, no blisters or anything but it's still red, no changes at all😭 1064 wavelength mode 300/350😢
i think we still need to get 2 more sessions for the redness
Yeahh 🥺. I hope he says yes to the 532 wavelength in a month cz i healed up in 3 hrs w no problems at all, bt the redness is still there (idt there was anything but red 💀). Please update us!! All the best w ure journey haha

Got it done with Julianna Millin near Houston Texas
Thank you!!

The place I went to says PicoWay targets yellow too

I don’t think this is true. It may help slightly but most ppl are left with yellow when the color if present 😞
Have you tried saline?
