LUXURY NANO BROWS

Nano Brows are achieved using a high quality fine, single-needle machine delivering pigment into the skin to create hyper-realistic hairstrokes, soft powder/shading, or a combination of both.  

The Nano Brow process allows you to have fully saturated hairstrokes or soft powder with better retention and less trauma to the skin, resulting in a smooth healing process.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING MY FIRST PROCEDURE?

Luxury Nano Brow appointments begin with the specialist taking an overview of your facial structure, taking into account factors such as eye placement, and face shape . We will then discuss what you would like to achieve with your brows in terms of shape, thickness, size, colour, arch, and personal preference, as well as going over any photos you have for personal inspiration.  Next, we will map out the measurements for brow placement, and sketch the desired shape. Once happy with the shape and symmetry, we will numb the area with a topical numbing cream for 20 mins. During this time, we go through pigment selection and choose the most appropriate shade.  This selection process is heavily dependent on natural brow hair color, skin color and undertone. Finally, your brow specialist will begin the procedure, checking periodically, to ensure balance and symmetry.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO HEAL?

Healing time is approximately 10 – 14 days depending on how well your skin heals, but that time period is only for the top layer of skin. Micropigmentation takes 30 days to heal fully. After the procedure area has healed, a touch up appointment will be needed. The process is not considered complete without this brow perfecting session! This appointment will be booked 4 – 6 weeks after your initial appointment. At the touch up, we will be able to determine how your skin has healed, and if any adjustments have to be made. The specialist will be able to solidify the work done at the first appointment, as well as fill in any sparse areas, and place strokes between the already healed strokes. During healing, it’s normal to experience moderate pigment loss (30% – 50% on average). This is why the touch up appointment at 4-6 weeks is so important. The process of Nano Brows is only considered to be complete once your skin has healed following the touch up appointment.

HOW LONG WILL IT LAST?

Your Nano brows will generally last between 12-24 months, however like with many procedures, there are a few factors that will prolong or shorten the expected durability.

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY PROCESS?

Your brows will appear darker and defined in the first days after your procedure. As scabs form they will continue to darken before gradually lightening during the healing process. Your brows will lighten approx 40-50% as the scabs begin to fall off. Do not rub or pick the area as it will pull any pigment out of your skin prematurely. Avoid heavily wetting your eyebrows for 14 days during the healing process. Avoid extreme heat, jacuzzis, saunas, steam rooms, sun beds, and excessive sweating for 14 days. The complete healing process takes approximately 4-6 weeks.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS

​Detailed after care instructions and healing balm will be issued to you after your appointment. How you take care of the procedure area over the next 7-14 days will ultimately determine the final appearance and longevity of your Microblading or Micropigmentation. The “healing period” referred to below is 7-14 days, but please note it will take 30 days for the procedure area to fully heal. Please follow these instructions carefully for the best results:

• No makeup should be applied to the brows during the healing process
• Avoid heavily wetting brows during the healing process
• Avoid Sauna/steam room/sunbed during healing process
• Avoid showering for the first 12-24 hours. After this time has passed, when showering or bathing during the healing period apply a thick layer of aftercare balm to create a barrier and avoid putting the procedure area directly in the water stream during the healing period.
• Do not touch, rub, scratch or pick your brows following treatment or during the healing process. Doing so can result in loss of pigment or scarring.
• You may find that your brows will scab or become slightly dry following the treatment. If they itch, DO NOT SCRATCH them please, simply tap the area to release itch.
• If your brows get wet during the healing process, pat dry with towel, do not rub.
• Apply a thin layer of healing balm 2-3 times a day. If you have excessively oily skin, you may not need to use balm as frequently (therapist will advise)
• 1 X per day (evening) use a q-tip, and a small amount of  soapy water to remove previous layers of balm and gently cleanse brows. Hydration is KEY.  Pat dry
• Avoid excessive sweating for the first 7 days after procedure
• Avoid excess sun exposure as this can cause the pigment to fade and effect the healing process. After the healing process, applying sunblock is recommended to protect your cosmetic tattoo from fading or discolouring. (SPF 50 is recommended). A hat and sunglasses should always be worn during sun exposure for longevity purposes and to protect against general sun damage
• Avoid using daily skin care products directly on the eyebrows
• Botox should be avoided 2 weeks prior and post treatment
• If you are having an MRI scan, please inform the doctor that you have had microblading done.
• After the procedure area heals, a touch-up appointment will be needed; the process is not considered complete without it! Your touch-up appointment should be booked 4-6 weeks after your initial appointment.
• Similar to traditional tattoos, it is normal to experience some loss of pigment during the healing period.
• The pigment is expected to be darker for the first 3-5 days after your appointment. Don’t panic! They will lighten and change every day during the healing period. After the initial healing period and once any flakes have fallen off, a shiny layer of healing skin will completely cover the hair strokes which will make it seem as though the tattooed area has completely disappeared. Within 1-2 weeks, 40-60% of the pigment will slowly reappear at a lighter shade as your skin regenerates.
