What is permanent makeup?
With permanent makeup, a tattoo is essentially applied to your skin, making it look as if you’re always wearing makeup. The pigment is applied to the top layer of your skin, unlike a real tattoo, where the pigment is placed deeper into the skin. This means that the permanent makeup may fade or discolor over time.
You may have had permanent makeup applied but aren’t entirely happy with it afterward. For example, because it wasn’t applied properly or because the color is different than expected. Fortunately, you can easily remove your botched permanent makeup with laser treatment.
When should you have permanent makeup removed?
There may be several reasons to have your PMU removed. Common reasons include:
- The permanent makeup wasn't applied properly
- The color has faded (red, gray, or blue)
- This shape no longer suits your face
- The PMU doesn't meet your expectations
- Old PMU prevents the installation of new PMU
Whatever the reason, permanent makeup can be safely removed, provided it is done properly.

Removing Permanent Makeup: What Methods Are Available?
❌ Removing permanent makeup yourself
It is sometimes believed that you can remove permanent makeup yourself using, for example, lemon or a scrub, but we strongly advise against this. Home treatments, creams, or abrasive methods can lead to:
- scars
- infections
- permanent skin damage
Without the pigment actually disappearing.
⚠️ Removing permanent makeup with saline solution
It is possible to remove permanent makeup using a saline solution (saline removal). This is generally a safe procedure, but please keep the following points in mind:
- Higher risk of infection
- Does not completely remove the pigment
- Less effective on deep or old pigmentation
- Longer recovery time
- Less effective than laser
If used incorrectly, this method can cause more harm than good.
✅ Laser removal of PMU (most effective)
The safest and most effective method for removing permanent makeup is with a laser. This process breaks down the pigment into tiny particles, which the body then eliminates on its own. You can see effective results after just a few treatments, without any scarring or skin damage.
At New Skin Laserclinic, we use the Fotona FracTAT technique and an Nd:YAG laser to remove permanent makeup. This allows us to treat everyone safely and effectively.
