Permanent makeup also known as cosmetic tattooing has made great strides in advanced innovative procedures that look natural and realistic.
Microblading is a manual method of cosmetic tattooing. This procedure is performed using a very fine, sterile, disposable hand tool to deposit pigment into the epidermis. This method is ideal for anyone wanting to enhance the look of their eyebrows. The results are natural looking, hair-like strokes, regardless of the amount of natural brow hair present. If you have extremely oily skin, microblading may not work well for you and we advise all clients to be realistic with the end result. Oil production in the skin can cause the hairstrokes to heal with a diffused, softer look, sometimes powdered result.
Ombre Powder is a machine method of cosmetic tattooing. This procedure is performed using disposable needle cartridges that allow the artist to created a shaded gradient effect. This technique is ideal for oily skin type clients who may not get the best retention from microblading.
The Process
The process begins with a consultation discussing the look desired, realistic expectations and if your skin is suitable for microblading or ombre powder. Consent forms will be filled out and before photos will be taken. Keep in mind eyebrows are sisters not twins! Remember that our face is not perfectly symmetrical but our goal is to get our brows as close to perfection as possible! Also, no shape is one size fits all, it is my goal to help you with your best shape. After the shape has been mapped and drawn on we will begin the numbing process. Topical anesthetic is applied to ensure your comfort and will be reapplied throughout the procedure. A fine needle or a hand tool will be used to implant the dermatologically tested and state of the art cosmetic pigments into the skin. We do not use traditional tattoo ink. After your brow procedure is complete, after care cream may be applied. We will discuss your after care and will be given an after care instruction card. Your brow area may feel sensitive. Prior to leaving you will book your perfection follow up treatment to complete the final adjustments. This will ensure that your enhancement will be beautiful. Perfection follow-up appointments cannot be booked sooner than 8 weeks from your initial treatment. Please be prepared that eyebrow color intensity will be significantly darker and sharper within the first few days of the procedure, but fade significantly (approximately 30-50%) over the healing period. Results and longevity vary greatly from person to person.
Factors to keep in mind:
If you are a frequent smoker, your pigment will fade sooner.
If you are iron deficient or Anemic, your pigment will fade sooner and bleeding/bruising may occur during and after the procedure.
Unhealthy compromised skin due to health issues, medications and over use of (anti aging,acne skincare, ect..) are all factors in the outcome. However, we recommend a Touch-Up annually to retain ideal shape and saturation of pigment. Healed result vary with each client.
NO guarantee will be made and additional sessions (at a minimum charge) may be required to obtain optimal results. Additional charges will apply. Although we give our best efforts to provide you with quality service, many factors can result in a less than desired outcome as each client will heal differently.
If you have previous permanent makeup from another artist, we will discuss your options (if feasible) and you will be considered a NEW client. We have the right to refuse services.
