WHAT IS PERMANENT EYEBROW MAKEUP?
This is a service that introduces a dye between the epidermis and the dermis. The shape of the eyebrows is selected individually to the shape of the client's face to bring out its beauty and give it a unique character. After accepting the proposed shape, we proceed to pigmentation. I personally choose the color and pigmentation technique for my client's skin. Remember that permanent makeup should subtly emphasize your beauty - it is not an evening makeup. It is a procedure that requires manual, artistic skills and extraordinary imagination. A service dedicated to people who value comfort, beauty and naturalness.

WHAT DOES THE PROCEDURE LOOK LIKE?
The first step before the pigmentation is excluding all the contraindications which may disqualify us for the procedure. Please don’t hide any information about your health condition. The next step is brow regulation and predrawing which will visualize the final shape of the brows. I always create the shape based off your preferences, your bone structure and specific measurements. Keep in mind that the predrawing is the stage that is supposed to define a perfect, ideal and precisely marked shape (at first, it may seem thick or clunky). Inform the linergist about your fears! Permanent make-up is a procedure with lasting results and it can’t be removed easily, so don’t hesitate to say what you feel. If you chose a procedure performed by Patrycja, keep in mind that an overdrawn brows effect is impossible to achieve.

In some cases, after conducting a thorough pre-procedure interview with the client, the operator may refuse to perform the procedure, despite the absence of the above contraindications, if based on their knowledge and experience, they foresee the possibility of above-average post-treatment complications. Additionally, the person performing the procedure may request you to seek specialized medical advice or undergo additional tests before the procedure. This will be done to ensure the highest level of safety and minimize the risk of potential complications and adverse effects.
OLD PERMANENT MAKE UP
If you have old permanent makeup that was not done by me, I first need to see it. You can send me a photo of your brows taken with a good camera in natural daylight without any makeup (3 photos - left, right, and both brows)
Based on that, I will decide whether I can refresh your brows or not. If the brows are faded and the shape is aligned with the natural arch, I usually perform such procedures. However, if your brows, despite the passage of time, are intense, done outside the natural arch, and have different shapes, I most likely won't proceed with the treatment.
First, you will need to remove your current brows, and then we can work on their new appearance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pain and discomfort during the procedure?
The first thing the clients fear is pain during the procedure. Pain is a relative feeling. But the procedure itself shouldn’t be painful. During the procedure, the linergist uses anesthesia that should minimize the pain.

Heavily marked black eyebrows?
Permanent make-up is not an evening make-up. Heavily marked brows give an aggressive, sometimes vulgar look. Choosing a permanent make-up procedure, remember to highlight your natural beauty or level out your flaws, but always in a subtle way.
We do not use black colour.

How often will I need to repeat the procedure?
Eyebrow pigmentation involves two treatments - the main procedure and a touch-up session that takes place after 6-9 weeks. To ensure that your pigmented eyebrows always look perfect, they should be refreshed every 1-2 years, depending on your skin type and the type of pigment used.

Is a brow design created before the procedure?
Absolutely! Before starting the pigmentation, I create a perfect design of your eyebrows to visualize their future shape. Only after your approval of the new shape, I proceed with the procedure.

I'm afraid of the color of the brows being too intense. Is the color determined together?
The procedure is preceded by a thorough color analysis of your skin. We discuss together the desired intensity of your new brows. After gathering all the information, I select the most suitable color for you.

Durability of permanent make-up?
It’s a myth that a permanent make-up once done stays for 10-15 years. The lasting effect of permanent make-up depends on many factors. Let’s keep in mind that one of the benefits of current techniques of permanent make-up is slow and even peeling off of the pigment. A well-performed permanent make-up requires refreshing once a year of a year and a half.
*Warning! Remember that the darker the pigment, the bigger the probability that it will stay in your skin longer.

Sterility and security?
Needles used during a permanent make-up procedure are single-use ones. The specialist should unpack the needle in the client’s presence. Using the same needle during the correction procedure is unacceptable.

Change in the colour of the pigment?
Permanent make-up may lose it’s colour and it has nothing to do with a low quality of the procedure or a low quality of the products. The pigment changes under the influence of many exterior factors, as well as our health, that’s why correction after a year or a year and a half since the first pigmentation is recommended.
