WHAT IS MICROBLADING?

Microblading is a form of artistry where pigment is implanted into the skin with a handheld tool. Strokes are created to mimic the natural hairs in your brow. Although this procedure is not as deep as a regular tattoo it is still considered permanent as pigment is implemented into the skin and can last anywhere from 1-3 years. Yearly maintenance is recommended yearly to prevent fading.

Skin types and lifestyles can greatly impact the longevity and appearance of permanent makeup. Excessive sun exposure, laser treatment and other harsh skin care treatments can change the colour and retention of your brows so it is important to take caution as to preserve best results.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?

Eyebrows will appear darker and bolder due to natural scabbing and healing for the first 10 days. This is very common for all semi and permanent cosmetic procedures. Results vary per individual. Oily skin and dark skin tones may experience more fading and produce more of a textured powder effect as the skin’s natural oils and sebum may spread the pigment.

HOW LONG IS THE HEALING TIME FOR MICROBLADING/OMBRÉ BROWS?

For most people, the healing time is between 7-30 days, during which you will experience some redness and scabbing. Please read and follow the aftercare instructions provided.

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE THE EYEBROW SHAPE?

We will help you determine the best eyebrow shape and colour depending on your face shape, eye size, and skin tone.

I HAVE OILY SKIN; DOES THAT AFFECT HOW THE MICROBLADED BROWS WILL LOOK?

Different skin types affect the results. Oily skin and dark skin tones may experience more fading (resulting in the need for extra touch ups), and have the potential to produce more of a textured powder effect as the skin’s natural oils and sebum may spread the pigment more than usual.

WILL I NEED TOUCH-UPS AFTER MY INITIAL APPOINTMENT?

Ombre and Microblading touch-ups are recommended semi-annually or annually depending on the client. We recommend yearly maintenance for best results.

DOES THE PROCEDURE HURT?

A topical anesthetic is used to numb the procedure area prior to the needles being used. You can expect some minor level of discomfort during the procedure.

DOES EVERYONE'S SKIN HEAL SIMILARLY FROM THE PROCEDURE?

Everyone's skin is different and therefore may heal differently from this procedure. Depending on your skin type and how well your body heals from small scabs, some areas might retain pigment better than others. Based on our expertise, we will do our best to ensure pigment is placed well within the skin to achieve exceptional results. A small percentage of women might need two touch-ups instead of one based on how the skin heals. Please be patient and know that we are committed to getting you the results you want.

AM I AN IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS PROCEDURE?

Microblading/Machine Brows is a safe and reliable procedure and suitable for most people. However, if you have any of the following conditions, please consult with your doctor before attempting this procedure and bring a doctor's note with you to your appointment. If you have any of the following conditions and do not have a legitimate doctor's note with approval, we cannot perform this procedure for you. There are no exceptions to this rule.

- Pregnant and/or breast-feeding.

- Diabetic.

- On blood thinning medication.

- Have had injections/fillers in the brow/face area within the last 1 month.

I’VE HAD PERMANENT MAKEUP SOMEWHERE ELSE THAT I AM UNHAPPY WITH, CAN YOU HELP?

The first thing that you can do is to book a consultation through my website with me. This will give me an opportunity to have a look at your permanent makeup and chat with you about your expectations/outcomes. Please note, I do not offer touch up fees or lesser priced fees for touching up other peoples work. New clients (whether you’ve had work done previously) would always pay full price and in some cases, much more if it is corrective work and will take more time and expertise to cover/fix/reshape your procedure area.
