Is the procedure painful?
​
No! Pain is minimal to none. Numbing is used throughout the procedure to
keep you comfortable.
After the procedure, redness and slight swelling in the area is normal.
​
How long does is last?
​
Nano Brows, Nano Combination Brows and Powder Brows typically last between 2 to 3 years, depending on factors like skin type, lifestyle and aftercare. Oily skin may cause the pigment to fade faster, while dry or normal skin tends to retain it longer. Lip blush can last 2 -5 years. Touch ups are usually needed every 12 to 18 months to maintain their shape and color.
​
How long does the procedure take?
​
Nano Brows and Nano Combination Brows: 3 to 3.5 hours
Powder Brows: 2 to 2.5 hours
Lip Blush: 3 hours
​
What are the after care instructions?
​
Day 1: For the hour following your appointment, gently blot the treated area with a clean tissue or cotton round every 10-15 minutes.
Day 2-7: Gently wash your eyebrows each morning and night with water and a gentle facial cleanser. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to gently cleanse the brows. Rinse. Pat dry. Apply rice grain amount of aftercare ointment with a Q-tip.
​
Avoid direct sunlight/tanning for 14 days.
Do not use makeup on the area for 2 weeks.
Avoid creams or lotions on brows for one week.
Keep area dry as possible (other than when cleansing them)
Avoid sweaty exercise, steam, sauna for one week.
No swimming for one week.
Do not rub, pick or scratch the treated area.
No facials, Botox, chemical treatments or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
​
You will be given an after care card and ointments following the procedure. Instructions will also be discussed at that time.
​
How long does it take to heal?
​
The eyebrows should be healed in approximately 7 - 14 days. The color will appear darker for the first 3 -4 days, getting lighter every day. The pigment will look like it's flaking off but will resurface once healed.
Lips will heal in approximately 5 days. Lips will appear dark for the first few days and will generally fade about 40 - 60% depending on your natural lip color.
​
Is a touch up necessary?
​
Yes! You will need a touch up after 6 weeks. During the initial session, 30-50% of color loss is to be expected when the healing and peeling process is complete. The touch up will help refine the overall aesthetics and ensure longevity of the tattoo. At the touch up, pigment color can be adjusted and/or brows can be made thicker if requested.
Can I get my touch up done sooner than 6 weeks?
​
This is not recommended as it takes 6 weeks for the skin to heal and this will also
prevent scar tissue from forming.
Can I have Botox or lip fillers?
​
Yes--but you have to have it done 4 weeks prior to procedure or 4 weeks after.
