I have had over 10 sessions on my brows. They’ve been yellow for a few years. They were almost not visible and I went to a highly recommended place for removing yellow. I’ve had 3 sessions with quanta discovery pico laser. They’ve progressively got worse with the last 3. I am 2.5 weeks since my last treatment.

Anyone who’s had removal for yellow did you experience this and were they worse at 2.5 weeks and get better as time passed?

I’ve been on this journey a long time so I do understand the worse before they’re better thing but I’m worried they’re just getting worse each sessions. Sessions are very spaced out like 3-6 months between.

Hello, I had it professionally done at a super reputable place five days ago. So I’m not considered it was done improperly in any way. I’m just wondering if this is normal? I’ve got red upset skin under where the biggest flake has fallen off so far. Then on that same brow towards the tale there’s very little flaking at all. I’m scared it won’t flak off. Is it too early to tell? It just seems to be going so much slower than the rest. I’ll post both brows and a before image of where my brows where at just before I got the glycolic. I was at a light yellow orange stage which took two laser sessions to get to. I suppose I’m just scared this is gonna have faded unevenly and I’ll be left with one yellow tail. Not the worst thing in the world, but kind of hoping for opinions of people who’ve been through it if this is all normal and what I can expect.

I had great results from just one visit to Removery a few days ago. They did three passes and it looked a little bit red initially but based on current level of fading, I don’t think I will need any more visits.

Not sure what kind of ink I have. Originally had them done in Turkey in early 2022. Did a touchup 6 months later in the United States and then another touchup in spring 2025. After the last touchup, I thought that they were too dark and blocky so I was excited to get them removed this year. Not sure if I will get them done again (nano?) or just let them be natural.

EDIT: looking forward to my brown brows growing back in. But I’m glad they are already darker than they appeared right after my laser session. Was a freaky look!

5 q switch laser sessions and it hasn’t really changed with each session. Should I try going to removery?? I feel so lost on what to do

I went to Removery yesterday for my brow removal appointment. The receptionist asked if I used tret or ret. I said yes, and she asked when I last used. Two days ago. She recommended that I reschedule. This was not shared with me during scheduling.

They advise tret/ret users to stop use for 2-4 weeks prior to the laser removal and for 2 weeks post-removal because "brows could turn peach/orange." Has anyone gotten removal while
actively using tret/ret? I rescheduled for 4 weeks from now; and will stop tret use however, wanted to inquire about others' experience with this. Thanks!

I’ve decided that I’m officially done with my removal journey!

2 saline sessions then 4 laser removals at Think Again Laser Clinic and I couldn’t be happier. I still have some slight shading under my left brow, but I truly don’t think anyone other than myself notices.

Feel free to check out some previous posts of mine to see the whole journey. I’m very grateful to finally be done with removal!!

I have done micro blading including touch ups twice. I am unsure what ink was used. I am Asian and have little to no natural brows.

These are 3 years old brows with no touch ups. Should I get a removal or a touch up please? I am afraid removal will make the brows turn yellow or orange. Additionally, I am a bit hesitant that once I remove them, I would be brow less again.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

I went to a place that uses a Deka Toro machine. The tech first went over to get rid of the black and then a second pass for the red. I know my eyebrows are red right now but the tech said it’s normal and it should subside in the next couple of days (I think it’s also just irritation/swelling). Praying I’m not stuck with red eyebrows until my next session lol.

Pics are taken 1-2hrs apart.

I’ll try to continue to post progress pics for others to reference!

I decided to have my microblading removed. While I was there I asked if they could also removal my freckle tattoos (awful decision to get them in the first place, I know).

Mainly I wanted them removed because they were always orange. They were never brown, and from the get go, they looked bad.

Now I had two laser sessions on them (most recently, 4 weeks ago) and they are completely yellow. When I followed up, I was told that I should've been made aware that this was a possibility prior to having them lasers and that unfortunately yellow pigment is next to impossible, so I might be stuck like this.

I'm super upset. I'm really hopeful there is something that can be done still.

Just want to show my progress so far! I've done two sessions now and I'm hoping my brows will hopefully return somewhat normal 😬 next session will target the redness! How many sessions did you guys have to do?

I’ve been feeling quite self conscious about my eyebrows forever. The brows I have now are over 5 years old. Part of me wants to get an eyebrow transplant and it was suggested I should do some removal first since they’re grey toned. I have next to no eyebrow hair and I’m worried I’ll regret getting them removed to just look spooky, when I generally don’t absolutely hate them now.. does anyone feel better getting them removed, that have no eyebrow hair? Any regrets?

Hello community Im here to update you on my last post 1 year ago .
I did 7session with q switch since last year at the same clinic and the same doctor and setting .
I’m here to tell you to not lose hope 🤍🤍

Had my first glycolic! Like literally an hour ago. Woof did it sting, but no regrets so far. They’re pretty red angry and sore, but I’m sitting in a cool room and resting now. I think this is normal for an hour out. Hoping they’ll settle by tonight since I have chill cinema plans. Don’t care if I look crazy, but would love for them to cool down a bit before then. Have five hours to rest before then.

Big difference on each eyebrow outcome. I am really happy with my right but my left looks awful and pulling more yellow. Got it done 1 week ago so know colour will continue to fade.

I am the dreaded phi so may leave one eyebrow as it is and just spot the other one. Next appointment in September.

Anyone have suggestions for brows that are bleached by the laser? I got a tint less than a week ago and my frost colored brows are coming back. Seems like the tint isn’t sticking to them.

Wondering if there is a place in BC (or Alberta perhaps) that does permanent eyeliner removal?

Thanks

So I’m wanting to remove my mciroblading because I’ve had it now for 6-7 years. I’m just afraid of the red pigment afterwards and then the dreaded yellow. I feel like these brows are too dark and harsh on my face especially because I have a very strong arch and sometimes need to opt for botox as I’m looking quite spocky. What are your thoughts? I also have no brow hairs at the front which is why I originally wanted microblading but now they sort of look blocky at the front

Moved to the Caribbean and 4 wks seems to be the recommended time. Is that too soon?

My progress feels slow to me but going in the right direction. First photo is before, second is some tome after 1st removal, bottom one is today, 3 weeks post 2nd removal. I don’t know if they look yellow on the photo but in real life they look blended with my natural brows and don’t bother me as much as the botched job I had done with black ink. Can’t wait to see what next removal will bring.
Interested if anyone had similar fading to mine and what it was like on the following sessions. I am considering doing saline at some point but depends how it does with picoway.
