Results commonly last 12–24 months depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Oily skin may fade sooner. We recommend a 6–8 week initial touch-up and periodic color-refresh appointments every 12–18 months to maintain shape and pigment intensity.

Most clients describe mild discomfort rather than pain. We apply a topical numbing cream before and during the treatment to minimize sensitivity. Sessions typically last 90–120 minutes, and your comfort is monitored so we can reapply numbing if needed.

Avoid blood thinners, alcohol, aspirin, and retinol products for 48–72 hours before your appointment. Skip tanning, chemical peels, and excessive sun exposure. Arrive with clean, makeup-free brows; bring photos of desired shapes to help the artist design your perfect brow.

Keep brows dry and avoid heavy sweating for 7–10 days. Gently cleanse with recommended solution, apply ointment as directed, and avoid picking scabs. No swimming, saunas, facials, or eyebrow makeup until fully healed. Follow-up touch-up at 6–8 weeks is essential.

Ideal candidates are adults seeking fuller, defined brows who are in good general health. Those with active skin infections, uncontrolled diabetes, pregnancy, or recent cosmetic facial procedures may be advised against treatment; a detailed consultation determines suitability and customizes your plan.

Most clients require one full initial session followed by a 6–8 week touch-up to perfect shape and pigment. Oily skin or extensive fading may need additional adjustments. Annual refreshers every 12–24 months keep color vibrant and brows looking their best.
