Tips
•Those with very oily skin may not hold the pigment as well and are more likely to need multiple touchups 1-2 after their initial procedure.
• Please read the Q&A section to see if you might not be a candidate for the eyebrow procedures. There are certain skin conditions that would make it unadvised to proceed with the procedure, your technician will review your medical history again on the day of the treatment and take a look at your individual skin composition to insure that you are a good candidate and that it can be performed in a safe manner.
• ***This is a 2 step procedure, first we do the initial procedure and implant the color, then you must come back around 4-6 weeks later once your skin is healed for the touchup appointment. Once you have completed both sessions your procedure is complete. End results are all affected by skin type and will vary from person to person.
