LI-FT Tattoo Removal

Heal Time

A minimum of 8 weeks is necessary in-between lightening sessions to give the area adequate time to heal. (Removal of pigment bellow the elbow and knee often times take longer to heal) Larger pieces that need to be broken up into mini
sessions must be done at least three weeks apart. (Areas larger than a deck of cards)

A procedure to lighten/remove any type of pigment implanted into the skin such as old discolored cosmetic and small body art tattoos. It can even remove pen ink. After the proper amount of removal/lightening is achieved you may be able to get new work over the top.

Li-FT is a third party tested, sterile, non-acid, high salt concentrate with added orange and lemon seed extract, Aloe Vera, and water. Li-FT is used by trained professionals to safely and effectively lighten/remove any type of unwanted pigment in the skin. From pen ink, Indian ink, body art tattoos, and especially permanent cosmetics. Li-FT works on the theory of “Osmosis” Osmosis is the process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrate solution. Achieving the same amount of concentration on each side of the membrane. All tattooed pigments are suspended in the salty body fluids in the skin. These fluids have a lesser concentration of salt than the Li-FT. A trained Li-FT technician uses a high-speed tattoo machine or hand-held manual tool to poke tiny holes in the tattoo similar to how it was first achieved. The Li-FT solution is applied to perform osmosis to draw old pigment up and out.

Li-FT is safe for all skin types. People who are patient and willing to follow after care instructions are ideal candidates. People expecting immediate results are not good candidates. (For either laser or lift services) Sometimes the area gets
darker before it gets lighter as the color molecules are drawing nearer to the skins surface. If the area to be lightened or removed cannot be fully exposed to the air or extremely loosely covered, lift is not a good choice.

Differences between LI-FT (saline) and Laser?

Laser: brakes the pigment molecules up and allows them to travel through the body to be excreted.
Li-FT: draws the pigment molecules directly up and out of the body

Laser: laser machines don’t usually have all the wavelengths for all colors so technicians tend to crank up the frequency of the laser to try to remove colors without success. This can cause scaring and loss of natural pigment which can make regimenting difficult or impossible. Lasers remove black ink the best while it is not quite as effective on other lighter colors such as blues greens reds and oranges. This is because different colors demand different wavelengths to break them up. Just like we see color due to the different wavelengths of light. Laser can not identify Titanium (white) pigments. White does not absorb light. So it cannot be targeted by the laser. (Titanium is often found in skin colored pigments used to lighten or camouflage poor work.) Laser can actually turn white pigment black/gray/rusty color which can be permanent.
Li-FT: is color-agnostic, meaning all colors are targeted. Some may just take a bit longer to draw out due to larger molecules in the pigment. Lighter colors are easiest.

Laser: can cause permanent hair loss in the brow area. It is recommended to shave off your natural brow hair before laser is performed which is less than ideal if you have natural eyebrow hair.
Li-FT: will not harm natural brow hair and there is no need to shave the hair off before a lift service is performed.

Laser: tends to be more expensive
Li-FT: tends to be less expensive

Laser: no topical numbing is used. Injectable Lidocaine can be used by some qualified technicians however, some reactions can occur and can interfere with the efficacy of the treatment.
Li-FT: topical numbing is used throughout the procedure

Laser: has an increased risk of blistering the skin and discolouring the natural skin color.
Li-FT: is safe for most skin types and has a lower chance of hypo/hyper pigmentation yet a bit more risk of infection due to the fact it certainly opens the skin

Laser: protective eye-ware is used
Li-FT: no need for protective eye-ware

Laser: faster procedure time
Li-FT: longer procedure time

Laser: no guarantees
Li-FT: no guarantees

Laser: usually best for body art tattoos
Li-FT: usually best for cosmetic tattoos
