The Method

What Is InkOut?

InkOut is a patented natural saline-extraction tattoo and permanent makeup removal system from inkout.io. Instead of fracturing ink particles with laser heat, InkOut's solution creates an osmotic gradient that draws pigment to the surface of the skin during natural healing — where it exits with the scab.

01

Solution Applied

Technician applies InkOut solution into tattooed skin via a standard tattoo or microneedling device. The solution saturates the tattooed layer.

02

Osmotic Extraction

The solution's osmotic concentration draws ink pigment upward toward the epidermis over the following 7–10 days as the treated area heals.

03

Natural Shedding

Ink exits the skin with the natural scab during healing. No residual ink particles remain in tissue. The process repeats each session until clear.

Business Case

Why Spas Are Adding InkOut

Non-Laser, No Thermal Damage

InkOut uses a proprietary natural saline-based extraction process — no laser, no thermal tissue damage, no downtime. Spas that cannot operate laser equipment can offer this service legally and safely.

High-Margin Revenue Stream

Sessions price at $150–$400 each. A full removal program runs 4–8 sessions. One technician performing 3 sessions daily generates $150K–$350K in annual treatment revenue.

Addresses Permanent Makeup Removal

Microblading, lip blushing, eyeliner tattooing — PMU corrections are one of the fastest-growing spa service categories. InkOut is the only natural method effective on cosmetic tattooing.

No Capital Equipment Cost

Unlike laser systems ($40K–$150K), InkOut requires only a standard microneedling or tattoo device already common in med spas and esthetics studios, plus the STI-supplied solution kit.

Certification Included

STI provides complete technician certification, step-by-step treatment protocol, client consultation scripts, contraindication guidelines, and aftercare materials — everything to open day one.

Repeat Client Model

Multi-session treatment packages lock in predictable forward revenue. Clients pre-book 4–8 sessions, creating a committed revenue pipeline unlike single-visit retail services.
