This is the first question clients usually ask. The answer is that the pain is minimal to none.

We use a topical lidocaine anesthetic to numb the skin before beginning to microblade. We may use it again during the microblading session if needed. Most clients feel minimal discomfort during the procedure. 

Some clients, on the other hand, feel no discomfort at all.

In fact, some clients have actually taken naps during their appointments.

Whatever the case is, it is essential to relax and stay still during the procedure. Even if you don't take a nap, just relax, we got you.

Microblading, Powder (Ombre) brows, Nano & Fusion Brows generally last anywhere from 1 year & up to 5 years. There are two appointments that go with each service. The first appointment and the touch-up which is generally done 6-8 weeks after your initial appointment.

After both procedures are completed (first + touch-up),  results can typically last 1-5 years before needing another touch-up.

Various factors like skin type and skincare routine affect the longevity of Permanent brows. About 10% or less of those who undergo one of these procedures will need to get another touch-up sooner than a year.

NO! No Exceptions will be made. Enjoy this time with your baby, and we'll see you when you're ready!

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there are many cases where we don't recommend Permanent makeup.

If you are under 18 years old, we will not perform microblading on you even with a consent form.

If you are pregnant or nursing.

If you have skin conditions on or near eyebrows.

If you have had JUVÉDERM® or Botox or other fillers recently done in the area, you must wait at least 2 weeks

If you are prone to post-inflammatory hypopigmentation or keloids.

Those with transmittable blood conditions like HIV or Hepatitis.

Those with hemophilia.

Those with active skin cancer in the eyebrow area.

Those who have healing disorders.

Those who have uncontrolled high blood pressure or had mitral valve disorder.

Those on any skin medication like accutane and/or steroids which thin and make the skin more sensitive , AHA’s or any OTC creams and lotions for exfoliating, anti-aging, tone correcting and fading – these products may discolor your permanent eyebrows. Please keep these away from the eyebrow area. Please wait 6 months after getting off any Acutane before scheduling your appointment.

 If you are going through chemotherapy, we will request a doctor’s note before we can work with you to perform any of our permanent brow procedures.

There are some restrictions before your appointment to ensure your skin is in optimal condition for the procedure:

NO caffeine 24 hours before the procedure.

NO alcohol 24 hours before the procedure.

NO vitamin E, Ibuprofen, fish oils, niacin, aspirin, unless medically necessary, 48-72 hours prior to your appointment (Tylenol is  ok).

 Avoid exercising the day of the procedure as physical exertion expands your pores.

Avoid extensive sun exposure and waxing at least 3 days before your appointment.

Avoid the following treatments within 4 weeks of your appointment & after:

laser treatments,

facials

Chemicals peels.

Avoid the following treatments 2 weeks before & after your appointment.

Botox or other fillers and

Also avoid any fading/acne/anti-aging creams for at least 2 weeks.

A typical appointment lasts approx 2 hours.

A touch up appointment lasts 1 hour depending on how your eyebrows healed. This is the perfect time to add a little more thickness to your eyebrows or choose a darker color if desired.

It’s important to understand before your appointment that the final results can only be seen after two appointments, some people may need additional touch-ups.

While you will see great results immediately after the first procedure, little parts of the eyebrows may naturally slough off during the healing process or the color may heal slightly lighter.

Results depend on each client’s undertones, whether they have very oily skin, or other unique skin qualities. 

It is very hard to accurately predict how the ink will heal for every person. That is why we recommend coming to a touch up appointment 6 to 8 weeks after your initial appointment to retouch the parts that need more work done and match the color as much as possible to your natural eyebrow hair.

The appointment:

The first 15 minutes are dedicated to profiling the person, taking before photos and finding out what kind of eyebrows they would like.

The next 20 minutes are dedicated to numbing the skin with a topical anesthetic and deciding on a color.

Once the topical anesthetic has taken full effect, the measuring and drawing of the shape begins. Once decided on the shape, the procedure begins. This may take 1 to 2 hours depending on the thickness of the desired eyebrows.

Additional ink is applied and left to set in your skin for a few minutes. The next step is to remove the excess ink and be astounded by your new, fuller and gorgeous eyebrows!

The last step is to photograph the eyebrows so we can see the amazing transformation in the before and after photos. Although some redness may occur during the procedure, it is not very noticeable. You are now ready to step out in public and show off your new eyebrows!

Aftercare is very important to the longevity and appearance of your eyebrows post procedure.

Aftercare guidelines are the same for all eyebrow procedures:

NO water, soap, lotion, or makeup on your eyebrows for one week! An aftercare kit will be given at your appointment to care for your mew brows.

Avoid excessive sweating for 5 days

Swimming, hot sauna, hot bath, Jacuzzi, steam rooms.

Sun tanning or salon tanning.

Chemicals peels.

Laser treatments.

Skincare treatments containing Retin-A or glycolic acid.

Proper aftercare instructions will be given to you at your appointments depending on what procedure is performed.
