If you’re staring at your reflection after your cosmetic tattoo appointment, thinking, “This is not the look I wanted,” – firstly, don’t panic! Whether you’ve had Microblading, Nano Brows, Powder or Combination Brows that just didn’t out how you wanted them to and you need to remove your cosmetic brow tattoo fast – you definitely have options. Emergency cosmetic tattoo removal can help you greatly reduce and even remove the tattoo within 48 hours of your appointment.
At Nina Coombs, our cosmetic tattoo clinic based in Erina on the Central Coast, we offer an emergency cosmetic tattoo removal process that’s safe, effective, and all about helping you feel good in your own skin again.

Step 1: The (Calming) Consultation
First things first, we’ll listen to your story and talk through the options you have for cosmetic tattoo removal. If your brows came out too dark, too bold, or just not what you pictured – we can help. During the consultation, we’ll assess your skin and the tattoo itself, taking into account the original ink used, your skin type, and how recently you got the tattoo.
Step 2: Timing Matters (Why We Act Fast)
If you’re reading this within 48 hours of getting your brows done, we’re in the ideal window to make a BIG difference to your cosmetic tattoo. Acting quickly (ideally within 48 hours) allows us to work before the pigment fully settles into your skin. This crucial timeframe helps us remove or lighten the tattoo more effectively, using a specially formulated, gentle saline solution that’s designed to draw the pigment out of the skin before it fully settles. So, if you’re still thinking, “I wish I’d gone lighter,” there’s a chance to make that happen.
Step 3: The Removal Process (a.k.a. Brow Tattoo Removal in Under an Hour)
Once we’re ready to begin, we apply a saline-based solution to the tattooed area. Unlike laser removal, which is a lengthier, more complex process for removal of more established tattoos, this process is gentler on the skin and designed specifically for brow tattoo removal. The saline solution works by lifting the pigment gradually, drawing it out from the skin with as little disruption as possible. The session itself is usually under an hour, so you’re in and out – knowing you’ve taken the first step toward brows you’ll feel good about.
Step 4: Healing and What to Expect After Treatment
After your removal session, the area will start to heal, and you may notice some light scabbing as the pigment lifts out. This is completely normal and part of the natural healing process. We’ll give you a detailed aftercare guide, which includes keeping the area clean and resisting the urge to pick at any scabs. Letting your skin heal naturally is key to a smooth recovery and the best possible results. We’ll be here to answer any questions you have along the way.
Step 5: The Results and Follow-Up
Here’s the exciting part: as your skin heals, you’ll notice the tattoo lightening over the course of a few weeks. Some clients see dramatic results after one session, while others may need follow-up treatments, depending on how deep the pigment was applied and individual skin type. We’ll check in with you to see if additional sessions are needed.

Why Emergency Tattoo Removal Works (and Why You Don’t Have to Settle For Less Than Optimal Results)
Brows are a huge part of your expression and individuality, and when they’re not quite right (especially after a cosmetic tattoo you’ve invested time and money into) it can feel frustrating. Emergency removal gives you a second chance at achieving the look you truly want without waiting for the tattoo to fade naturally (which can take months, or even years).
