2023 AEC Session Description

By shifting the balance of osmolarity in a cosmetic tattoo, the tattoo can effectively be lightened and unwanted pigment in the skin can be removed. This service is performed similar to a cosmetic tattoo, however rather than using colors, a hypertonic saline solution is used to shift the cell size essentially causing the color to be removed.
