Before Kathryn starts doing any cosmetic treatment she has an in depth consultation with her client to make sure we meet your expectations. All clients are dealt with in a sensitive and compassionate manner. We  offer a number of areola tattoo techniques  and we will discuss what treatment will work best for you.  Annette will guide you through the medical tattoo treatment process  and answer all  questions you might have Kathryn offers expert areola re-pigmentation treatments and you can rest assure that you are in safe hands. You will have the option for a patch test if you have any concerns of an allergic reaction.  If not,  the procedure can be done on the same day.

Moving on to the pre-drawing,  Kathryn takes her time in doing the structure and measurements  with a pencil to create the perfect symmetry. Once we have agreed on the shape, we will apply the numbing cream that stays on for 20 minutes.  During this time we will select the custom blend colour pigment to compliment /match your areola colour.

We use high quality medical grade pigments that are hypo allergenic and sterilized needles for single use only. During the treatment we will use a secondary anaesthetic to control the sensation.

You can expect  the treated  area to be slightly red immediately after the procedure and  this will disappear after a few hours.   The areola tattoo will appear darker immediately after the treatment and will lose up to 50% of the intensity of the colour after 1 week once the scabs/dry skin have cleared up. During this time (1st week)  it is recommended to avoid touching the area,  use cosmetic creams, sunbathing or wet the area. Do not pick the scabs as this will result in pigment loss.  We will provide you with an aftercare balm and light dressing that needs to be applied with a clean cotton bud once or twice a day.  It takes up to 4 – 6 weeks for the pigmented area to settle and completely heal. We will book in your top up appointment 4-6 weeks after your initial treatment. In some cases the skin does not retain the implanted pigment as well. (Pigment retention can be influenced by unhealthy/damaged skin)

Skin texture, exposure to sun (use SPF while sunbathing), exfoliation products and skin lightening products like Vitamin A and retinol can affect the longevity of your areola tattoo. Avoid applying these creams on the cosmetic tattoo.  We recommend a yearly colour boost to keep your cosmetic tattoo at its best.

Moving on to the pre-drawing, Kathryn takes her time in doing the structure and measurements with an eyebrow pencil to create the perfect shape that compliments her client’s facial features. Eyebrows play an important role to give balance to the face and the pre-drawing can take anywhere from 10 – 30 (if not longer) minutes to get the shape and symmetry perfect. This is the most important part of the procedure and you can be confident that you are in safe hands. Once we have agreed on the shape, we will apply the numbing cream that stays on for 20 minutes. During this time we will select the colour pigment to compliment your eyebrows and skin colour. We use high quality pigments that are hypo allergenic and sterilized needles for single use only. Implanting the hair strokes/shading takes from 45 minutes to 1 and a half hours. During the treatment we will use a secondary anaesthetic to control the sensation.

The eyebrow tattoo will appear slightly darker immediately after the treatment and will lose up to 40% of the intensity of the colour after 1 week once the scabs/dry skin have cleared up. During this time (1st week) it is recommended to avoid touching the area, use cosmetic creams on the eyebrow area, sunbathing or wet the eyebrow area. Do not pick the scabs as this will result in pigment loss. We will provide you with an aftercare balm that needs to be applied with a clean cotton bud once or twice a day. It takes up to 4 – 6 weeks for the colour to settle and completely heal. We will book in your top up appointment 4-6 weeks after your initial eyebrow treatment as you may have areas that need more pigment added. This is also the perfect time to make minor adjustments to the shape and colour if need be. (Pigment retention can be influenced by after care, skin type, medication and immune system.) If skin retention is poor, in some cases a 3rd session is required. (This rarely happens).

Microblading typically lasts 12 months. Oily skin, skin texture, exposure to sun (use SPF while sunbathing), exfoliation products and skin lightening products like Vitamin A and retinol can affect the longevity of your eyebrow tattoo.
