Topical anesthetic is applied on the treatment area to numb it. There will be minimal discomfort to no minimal discomfort at all. This also depends on the pain tolerance of each clients as everyone has different tolerance to pain.

Permanent cosmetics takes anywhere between 2-3 hours depending on the procedure you are receiving. Sometimes it may take slightly longer if a person is immune to anesthetics.

It depends! A touch up session after 6-8 weeks may be necessary after the initial session as everyone heals differently and outcome will varies. Some clients skin has better retention while some do not! Certain areas may not pick up during first session and will need to be refilled. Pigment color may need to be adjusted, brow thickness and more strokes can be added. Individuals with oily skin often require a deeper shade during the touch up session as the oils tend to lighten the pigment during healing. Most importantly, your touch up session is to ensure it looks perfect and retains the color for the whole year!

We NEVER EVER EVER reuse needles/ blades/ pigments/ gloves on ANYONE. We are proud of serving safe and hygienic practices to avoid cross contamination of any disease and infection.

A healthy mommy = a healthy baby! ​ It's for the good of our future generation!☺

Once you finished the procedure, the healing process will start, as your skin is repairing itself from the procedure of pigment insertion. Your pigment may start darkening in a matter of hours, some people minutes(rarely). The pigment will darken throughout the days of healing until it starts cracking and scabbing off. You will experience cracking in Day 3-5 depending, and it will start scabbing off and becomes patchy on Day 5-7. On day 7-12 your treated areas will be 20% lighter with a little scabs or no scab at all. ​ *Some people heals quicker (7-10 days) and some takes longer time to heal (10-14 days)

It depends on which procedure you are receiving, most procedures take around 10-12 days to heal. Healing time varies on the person. Some people may heal quicker and some may heal slower.
