PMU & Tattoo Removal
Laser removal of permanent makeup and tattoos — ink chemistry, parameter selection, and session planning.
Laser removal of permanent makeup (brow and lip) and decorative tattoos. The category covers ink chemistry fundamentals, wavelength selection by pigment and depth, and structured session planning across a multi-visit treatment course. Particular focus on identifying iron-oxide pigments in brow work, managing the paradoxical-darkening response, and preventing the adverse events that matter most in practice. Explicit attention is given to treatment areas that fall outside the V-NISSG cosmetic scope — notably eyeliner — and to the consultation workflow for declining those cases with clear rationale.
Who it's for
Practitioners adding tattoo or PMU removal to an existing aesthetic practice. Operators certified under V-NISSG for laser PMU and tattoo removal who want to develop this as a dedicated treatment stream.
What you'll learn
- Ink chemistry and wavelength-to-pigment matching
- PMU-specific considerations: brow vs lip pigment behaviour and iron-oxide identification
- Recognise treatment areas outside the V-NISSG cosmetic scope (notably eyeliner) and handle the consultation accordingly
- Session planning and spacing across a multi-visit course
- Recognition and prevention of common adverse events
- Client consultation and realistic expectation-setting
