Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Upper Eyeliner (90-mins).

Most clients enjoy 1–3 years of pigment depending on skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure. Oily skin and frequent sun can fade faster. We recommend a color-correcting touch-up 12–18 months after initial treatment to maintain definition and longevity.

Numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most clients describe mild pressure or tingling rather than pain. Sensitivity varies, but our artists work slowly and communicate to ensure a comfortable experience throughout the 90-minute appointment.

Initial healing takes about 7–14 days; slight swelling, tenderness, and scabbing are normal. Pigment appears darker initially and softens as skin heals. Avoid water, makeup, saunas, and intense exercise during healing. A follow-up touch-up at 6–8 weeks ensures perfect, settled color.

Absolutely. During your consultation we design line thickness, shape, and pigment shade to match your desired look—subtle lash enhancement or a bold winged liner. The technique adapts to eye shape and lifestyle for a personalized, flattering result.

Ideal candidates want low-maintenance, defined eyes and are in good health. Consultations screen for contraindications like pregnancy, certain skin conditions, active eye infections, or blood-thinning medications. We review medical history and advise alternatives if permanent eyeliner isn’t suitable.

One primary session plus a required touch-up 6–8 weeks later yields optimal results. The first visit creates the pigment base; the follow-up refines shape and color. Occasional maintenance every 1–3 years preserves intensity depending on skin and lifestyle.
