Headling Time

For the first Lavishibrows procedure, the entire session should take about 2 hours with enough time to assess each step of the way. The consultation is a part of your appointment. You will fill out the necessary client information sheet and consent forms. I will shape, style, and draw on your perfect brow and take photos followed by pigment selection. Once you have approved the look and color of your new brows we then begin with the procedure!

Pain Information

The pain level for the procedure is considered mild to none. Some have described this as light cat scratches to not feeling anything. Prior to the LavishiBrows procedure, I will apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area which will take approximately 20 minutes to take effect. Everyone responds differently to anesthetic; depending on the client and other factors such as menstrual cycles which can also affect the level of sensitivity. It is normal after the procedure for the client to have mild redness and slight swelling in the area and a feeling similar to a light sunburn. Clients can take Tylenol but NOT Aspirin or Ibuprofen.

Healing Time

The eyebrow area will be slightly red after the procedure and the color will appear very dark. Don’t be alarmed, this is completely normal for the procedure and all part of the healing process. In the following days, the eyebrows will continue to be even darker and you will notice slight scabbing. DO NOT PICK at the scabs as this may damage the skin and the outcome of the Microbladed area. It takes approximately 7-14 days for the brows to heal over and about 1 month for the color to fully set in. True color will reveal itself once completely healed. The eyebrows will lighten up in color and can fade anywhere from 20% up to 40% as it heals which is normal. This is why you will return for your Perfecting Session in 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure.

Lasting Effects

This semi-permanent procedure can last up to 2 years. All client’s results will vary depending on many factors including skin types; normal, dry, oil, and textured. It is very important that you follow all the post-procedure instructions for your eyebrows to ensure proper healing. Since Microblading pigments are not implanted into the skin as deep as traditional tattoos, the area will naturally fade over time. Semi-Permanent makeup is an ART, not science, and understands no guarantee can be made that the color will stay.

A client’s skincare routine will also affect the lasting effect of the pigment. Clients who suntan, who use corrective skin care products on or near the brow area containing, AHA, Glycolic Acids, Retinols, and Hydroquinone creams, will fade faster and their color will not last as long. Each individual’s color retention within the skin will vary. To maintain brows looking their best a touchup is suggested every 12-18 months. Clients can let the microbladed area fade over time, but please note a slight shadow may remain.
