Mike Panic Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 One of the private LinkedIn groups I'm a member of for tattoo removal specialist has an on-going thread about the 'natural' and 'saline' tattoo removals people are offering, some with tattoo machines, so who are running just water though the machine than packing in salt to an open wound for up to 10 minutes. This is a photo one member shared of their client who came in after trying it. https://celibreinc.app.box.com/embed/hrzsrk6vlfn7hz2.swf#! tatB 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4224-natural-saline-tattoo-removal-carnage/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Panic Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 is that scarring the skin? pardon my ignorance, I would give this a try on my upper arm if I was confident I could get a nice tattoo after the treatment Yes, that's very heavy scaring. In a nut shell, they are opening up the skin to create a wound, putting an agitator in there so your body must 'reject' the pigment and during the scabby / crusty / crappy / painful healing process, hopefully the ink will come out. If you're not 100% on top of the healing process, this is what can happen. And no, this wouldn't be fun to tattoo over, the raised and bumpy skin won't go away when it's tattooed.
