NB INFO: FOR CLIENTS THAT HAVE A DARKER SKIN TONE
The use of lasers for tattoo removal can sometimes exacerbate this condition by stimulating the production of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to the skin.
Taking a Bromelain supplement before the procedure can help reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation by reducing inflammation and swelling in the skin. This in tum. can help minimize the production of melanin and reduce the risk of dark spots or uneven skin tone.
