Microblading is a technique of implanting pigment into the skin with a handheld tool to give the look of individual hair strokes. Powder Brows is a technique of implanting pigment into the skin with a tattoo machine to give the look of shaded, filled-in brow. Both techniques can produce a soft, natural-looking result.
If you don't have much brow hair but like the look of the microbladed hair strokes, you may need a combo brow, which is a combination of microblading and powder brows shading, to help give you definition.
At your consultation, our artist will determine which procedure type would best suit you, with regards to your goals, your skin type, your existing brows, and their artistic expertise.
You must wait one month after getting fillers or botox to get permanent makeup, and wait one month after permanent makeup before getting botox or fillers. This is to ensure your fillers and botox have settled, and that any injection site has healed, and to ensure your permanent makeup has healed before introducing an injection from botox or fillers. Please note, that if you are in-between your first and second session of permanent makeup, we recommend waiting until one month after your second session to receive botox or fillers.
If you are wondering whether you should get lip filler before or after getting lip blush, the short answer is, either one is fine to get first. But if we had to choose, we recommend getting the lip filler first, because getting filler after lip blush can stretch the skin and make your lip blush appear less saturated.
Yes, we require a minimum age of 18 years old to get PMU at our studio. You must provide a valid photo ID before we will perform any PMU service on you.
PMU is a permanent procedure. However, it is common for PMU to fade over time, and clients typically desire a touch-up every 1-3 years. The amount your PMU may fade is unpredictable to the artist, and depends on a variety of factors unique to you, including skin anatomy, your lifestyle, medications, or medical conditions. It may fade significantly over time, or only slightly.
In general, during the healing process your PMU will go through stages. At first, it will be essentially an open wound that you must take care to protect. Like a normal wound, it will then get dry and you may experience scabbing/peeling, followed by a new layer of skin that forms. During this stage, your PMU may look like it has "disappeared," however, once the new layer of skin normalizes the pigment may reemerge.
The aftercare instructions you will be provided with are designed to minimize the scabbing/peeling, and help with pigment retention. Please visit our "aftercare" page for more detailed information about the healing process and instructions.
Sun exposure, retinols, and any other chemical exfoliators can cause your PMU to fade prematurely, so we recommend avoiding tanning beds, wearing sunscreen daily on your PMU, and avoiding retinols or chemical exfoliators on your PMU indefinitely. If you are going to be in the sun all day, we also recommend a hat or visor to shade your face from the sun.
