HOW DOES TATT2AWAY REMOVAL WORK?
How does tattoo removal work? Here is everything you need to know! Tatt2Away is a non-laser tattoo removal method that uses the body’s natural healing process to lift and remove tattoo ink from the skin using a precision dermabrasion technique to create small controlled abrasions over the unwanted tattoo. A proprietary 100% natural-ingredient solution called TEPRSOL is delivered during this abrasion process aiding the body’s natural healing process to expel the ink particles safely from the body in the form of a debris scab or eschar. Tatt2Away is effective on all ink colors, works on cosmetic ink and permanent makeup, and is suitable for all skin types, being the prudent choice over traditional laser tattoo removal with reduced risk of scarring when aftercare is followed diligently. Most clients have full removal in 3-5 sessions, with up to 35% of the ink being removed from the body after each treatment.
What is TEPR?
Trans-Epidermal Pigment Release (TEPR®) is a non-laser tattoo removal technique used by Tatt2Away. This innovative method focuses on removing tattoo ink through the epidermis, rather than relying on traditional laser treatments to remove the ink through the body’s lymphatic system. Tatt2Away treatments utilize specialized equipment, including a handpiece with a sterile disposable TEPR brush cartridge and a proprietary TEPR solution. The handpiece allows for precise application of the solution and controlled abrasions to release the ink particles from the skin.
How TEPR Works at the Cellular Level
As Tatt2Away makes small, controlled, and strategic abrasions in a dot pattern to expose the dermis, TEPRSOL is deposited over abraded area to disrupt the ink particles embedded in the dermis. TEPRSOL is 100% natural using ingredients that already exist in the human body to help loosen the bonds between the tattoo ink and the dermis.
Wondering how tattoo removal works? After each session, the body’s natural healing process kicks in. As the skin heals, it expels the disrupted ink particles through the epidermis, using a scab. The ink is removed from the body once the scab falls off.
New skin cells regenerate after the scabs fall off, replacing the old cells that contained the tattoo ink. This process gradually removes the tattoo as more ink is removed each session.
Removal is quicker, safer, and more effective.
THE TATT2AWAY PROCEDURE
1. Consultation and Assessment
- Our team will always provide a no-cost consultation (valued at $100) to assess your removal, revision or coverup goals. They will assess your skin type and determine the suitability of the procedure.
- Our Technicians will discuss your medical history, any skin conditions you may have, and the results you are looking to achieve.
- We will provide you with an overview of the procedure, expected results, the number of sessions needed, and all post-care instructions.
- Safe and effective tattoo removal is always our main goal!
2. Preparation for Your First Session
- On the day of your first tattoo removal session with Tatt2Away, your tattoo will be thoroughly cleaned to remove any dirt, oil, or bacteria.
- Then, a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure, but not always.
- For best results, please make sure to keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight for at least two weeks before your first tattoo removal session as well as throughout your healing journey. Sun exposure can affect end results.
3. Tatt2Away Treatment
- Tatt2Away’s precision dermabrasion device will be used to create a dot-pattern of tiny, controlled circular abrasions over the tattooed area. During the treatment, Tatt2Away’s 100% natural proprietary solution, TEPRSOL, will be applied over the treated area.
- The abrasions that are created during treatment penetrate the epidermis to reach the dermal layer where the tattoo ink sits in the skin.
- Tatt2Away’s method targets and disrupts the ink particles, loosening the ink from the skin and bringing the ink closer to the skin’s surface.
4. After Care:
- After each session, your treated tattoo will be cleaned and covered with a sterile dressing to protect it from infection.
- Our tattoo removal specialist will provide detailed aftercare instructions for you to follow over the coming weeks, including how to clean the area, what to avoid, and a photo schedule for your technician to help you catch any complications early.
- It’s crucial to keep the area dry and avoid exposure to the sun or submersion in water until your treated tattoo is fully healed. Please also avoid picking at scabs or peeling skin to prevent scarring. For more information on how tattoo removal works, contact our team today.
