We can offer to send the patch test out via 1st class post a week before the appointment along with the forms that will need to be completed and brought back to your appointment, although in some cases we can carry out a pinprick test on the day of the appointment while you are waiting to be called in to discuss the detail of the treatment you desire.

To receive semi-permanent make up you need to be 18 years old or over. When considering semi-permanent make up you need to think about what procedure you would like to have. There is so many different procedures to choose from that ideally you would want to be 100% sure as will stay for approximately many years.
Microblading last between 12-18 months, on average our clients call to book yearly top-up appointments. Depending on the individual and the condition of the skin would affect when you would be required for a top-up treatment, if a client has oily skin the pigmentation colour will fade quicker than if non-oily skin client. We advise to stay out of the sun and reduce activity for the first few weeks to prevent the colour fading, from sweat, heat/sun exposure.
Every client is different some clients say that it feels uncomfortable, while others say that it feels like scratching to the skin. We have had clients fall asleep in the past while receiving the treatment, we apply tropical anaesthetic to the skin before and during the treatment to prevent uncomfortable feeling.
Semi-permanent pigments are applied to the surface layer of skin, designed to define and enhance natural facial features. The pigments are implanted using microfine needles, a process which is also known as micropigmentation or cosmetic tattooing. Effects will gradually fade over time, depending on factors such as age, exposure to sun and general skin care; however, top-ups can rectify this.
