What is Micro-dermabrasion and what are the risks of scarring when this technique is used for tattoo removal?
Micro-dermabrasion
Therapists using this technique use an abrasive device, such as a brush or a diamond wheel, to sand down the skin until the epidermis and the ink-containing layers of the dermis are removed.
People can achieve dermabrasion at home using substances such as brown sugar crystals, powdered pumice and ground down apricot kernels.
This treatment is incredibly painful. Patients are given strong anaesthesia when the procedure is performed in a clinical situation.
Due to the aggressive nature of the treatment, more than one session is required to remove the tattoo. This technique is not suitable for large tattoos and is limited in its ability to remove tattoos with heavily impregnated ink or tattoos with complex colours or shades.


This technique is not recommended for people prone to abnormal scarring, as most people experience scars in the treatment area as a result of this procedure.
Microdermabrasion is not a preferred method among tattoo removal professionals. We do not recommend this technique if you are worried about scarring.
At City Tattoo Removal we use only state of art laser technology to safely and effectively remove your unwanted ink. This risk of scarring from this procedure is minimal.
