LIQUID REMOVAL FOR YELLOW REMNANTS POST LASER

Liquid Removal – Microneedling with Glycolic & Lactic Acid

What It Is & Why Liquid Removal Is Amazing:

Liquid Removal is a specialized microneedling treatment that employs a solution enriched with glycolic and lactic acids to lift out any remaining yellow pigment (titanium dioxide) that sometimes persists after laser sessions. While laser removal is far more effective for darker pigments and is always recommended as the primary method, this liquid removal option provides an effective solution for the rare instances when yellow pigment remains. Many believe nothing can be done, but 1-4 sessions of this treatment can successfully remove the yellow, offering a refined finish.

What It Does:

This treatment targets and lifts the residual yellow pigment from the skin using a microneedling process combined with the exfoliating and regenerative properties of glycolic and lactic acids. In addition to removing stubborn pigment, the process also stimulates collagen production, restructures the skin, and improves overall skin texture—especially beneficial if the skin was compromised due to repetitive or overly aggressive cosmetic tattooing.

How It’s Delivered:

Microneedling creates microchannels in the skin, allowing the glycolic and lactic acid solution to penetrate deeply and precisely target the yellow pigment. The controlled micro-injuries not only facilitate pigment removal but also trigger the skin’s natural healing process. This leads to enhanced collagen production and improved skin texture with minimal trauma. Typically, 1-4 sessions are recommended to fully remove the yellow pigment.

Who It’s Not Suitable For:

This treatment is generally safe for most skin types; however, it may not be suitable for individuals with active skin infections, open wounds, or a history of keloid scarring. Those with extremely sensitive skin should consult with a specialist to determine the best course of action, as the acids used require careful application.

How to Prep & Aftercare:

• Prep: Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks before treatment. Refrain from using harsh skincare products (such as retinoids and exfoliants) and medications that increase photosensitivity to reduce the risk of irritation.

• Aftercare: Keep the treated area clean and well-moisturized. Avoid direct sunlight and apply a high SPF daily. Steer clear of makeup and strenuous activities immediately following the treatment, and follow your practitioner’s guidelines closely to support optimal healing and skin recovery.

Liquid Removal – Microneedling with Glycolic & Lactic Acid offers an innovative solution for lifting residual yellow pigment, while simultaneously enhancing skin texture and stimulating collagen production. This dual-action approach ensures that your skin not only looks naturally beautiful but is also healthier and more resilient after the treatment.
