Permanent Brow Techniques
Eyebrows shape the eyes and play a powerful part in communication. The shaping of eyebrows is an
important part of many daily makeup routines. To keep the desired eyebrow shape, oftentimes routine trimming,
filling and shaping is needed. Our permanent makeup brow solutions offer a longer term solution for your brows.
There are two techniques that our medical aesthetician, Tara, uses in our Medi Spa: Microblading and Permanent
Brow Makeup.
MICROBLADING
Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo technique that is used to reshape, define and fill in the gaps on the
brows. One of the elements that makes microblading great, is that it is a semi-permanent tattoo technique.
Typically the drawn-on strokes last up to 24 months (fading can be noticeable at 18 months). We either
recommend a touch-up at this point to recreate your brows or you can choose a new brow shape to stay
up-to-trend.
Ideally, the perfect candidate for a microblading procedure is someone looking to have defined, realistic brows
without having to bother with eyebrow pencils or makeup.
PERMANENT BROW MAKEUP
Similar to microblading, permanent brow makeup inserts pigment into the dermis. The main difference between
the two procedures are the techniques used by the medical aesthetician to create your desired results. Permanent
brow makeup also is a longer-lasting treatment, with the pigment lasting between 4 and 8 years depending on your
after care/touch ups.
