It is the micro-implantation of coloring pigments into the skin for aesthetic purposes to enhance, contour, and outline facial features. It is also a valuable procedure for camouflaging scars, burns, skin pigmentation variances caused by vitiligo, correcting some facial irregularities, or to further enhance facial rejuvenation and post-operative treatments.

We take every precaution necessary to ensure the micro-pigmentation application is as pain free as possible. A wide range of medical grade anesthetics are used for your comfort.  Some clients find the procedure a little uncomfortable, whereas other clients report no discomfort at all.  A combination of 2 anesthetics are used, first a topical numbing cream and then a local anesthetic is introduced once the microblading procedure has started. This is topped up regularly during the treatment to keep you comfortable. Similar to our other PMU services.

The procedure is split into 2 appointments, which are 4-6 weeks apart to allow for the healing process to complete.  The initial procedure will take from 90 to 120 minutes, and your second appointment takes about 60-90 minutes.

Many clients can walk right out the door, ready to show off their new brows.  Initially stronger in color, your new brows will soften to a natural looking and beautiful color in two to three weeks. Working out or sweating shouldn't be done for about 10-14 day because it effects the healing process.

NO!  Microblading and Ombré Brows are done using a cosmetic tattooing process and our eyebrow pigmentation unique artistry resulting in soft, natural looking eyebrows.  When we implant pigment in the skin, it appears more natural looking than even topically applied cosmetics.

We choose a shape and style together.  At the beginning of the procedure, Whitney will map your brows according to your bone structure and draw in a suggested shape for your new brows, then you will work together to perfect it according to your preference. Measurements are taken to check symmetry and position before the service begins.

Your body’s skin changes over time and so will any permanent makeup coloration implanted in to the skins layers.  However, this natural fading process takes years and touch ups are easily done as your color fades over time.

This varies from person to person and depends on whether or not you get the recommended touch up/ second session within 6 weeks of the first session but on average last from 12-18 months after your initial microblading session.

During the procedure there may be some minor bleeding.  This will depend on the client.  If a person is taking blood thinners on a daily basis, then some slight bleeding may occur.  Bruising is rare but if a person is on blood thinners, then bruising can occur.  There is usually some tenderness for a few days.  The color appears much darker than you may expect for the first six to ten days.
