Eyebrows

At Fame Brows by Yulia Honig, we specialize in advanced semi-permanent makeup techniques, including the Powder Brow method, which creates soft, natural-looking eyebrows. This technique involves implanting pigment into the skin with a gentler touch, ensuring a smoother, faster healing process compared to more invasive methods.

At Fame Brows, we prioritize safety and quality by using only certified products and one-time-use needles for each treatment, ensuring the highest standards of hygiene and care.

After the procedure, it is normal to experience slight redness, tenderness, and scabbing as the skin heals. These effects are temporary and will gradually subside as your skin recovers.

To ensure long-lasting results, following proper aftercare is essential.

Semi-Permanent Eyebrows Healing Stages

Total healing time: 3-4 weeks
Days 1-3: Tenderness, slight discomfort. The pigment colour is dark.
Days 3-12: Eyebrows will flake off, and the pigment will change in appearance.
Days 28-45: You can see final result. 

Things to Avoid After a Powder Brows Procedure

• DO NOT rub, pick or scratch the treated area. Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate off. Picking can cause scarring and pigment loss!
• COMPLETELY avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for a minimum of 4 weeks after your procedure.  Direct sunlight can cause the pigment to change color while it is healing and can also cause hyperpigmentation and scarring.
• Avoid pool, sauna, steam rooms, hot showers and/or hot bath for 3 weeks.
• Avoid sweating for a full 10 days. Any physical effort, gym, hot weather, any other activity that may cause sweating through or on the brows will expel pigment from the dermis producing poor results.
• Avoid sleeping on your face/brows for the first 10 days.
• NO makeup or skincare products to be used on the treated area for 10- 14 days.
• NO facials, chemical treatments, laser treatments  and microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
• NO botox for 4 weeks. We recommend that it’s best to wait until after your touch up heals to get Botox, as an educated injector will take your new brows into consideration when choosing where to inject.
• After 10 days, once the area has healed completely, consider using sunblock to avoid uv rays (50 SPF or greater) when going out in the sun to stop the color from fading, color retention. 
• Eyebrow tinting should not be undertaken for 2 weeks after your procedure.
• Avoid Retin-A, Chemical Peels and Microderms around the brow area once healed.

Important note about showering (during 10 days):

Limit your showers to 5 minutes so that you do not create too much steam. Keep your face/ procedure area out of the water while you wash your body, then, at the end of your shower, wash your hair. Your face should only be getting wet only at the end of the shower. Avoid excessive rinsing and hot water on the treated area. 

Please Note: Eyebrows will appear darker, bolder and sharper due to natural scabbing and healing for the first week.

• It is normal to lose approximately ⅓ of the color during the healing process
• After the initial procedure, the color may be a shade too dark; in 6 days it will appear light. After 10 days the color will show more.
• It will appear softer when completely healed because the color will come from the dermal layer of the skin to the epidermal layer of the skin. 
• Please be patient, healing takes up to 30 days. We always can make brows darker at the touchup session if you find them light. 

The brows are approximately 20 to 25% darker and bolder in the width compared when they are healed. Your skin is red under the pigment which causes the color of the pigment to appear darker. There is some swelling, although difficult to actually see due to the thickness of the skin in the eyebrow area.  This will subside. Exfoliation, which begins in a few days, will cause the excess pigment surrounding the eyebrow procedure to flake away and a narrower appearance of your eyebrows. Don’t be concerned that your eyebrows initially appear darker and heavier in size than you desire. This is all part of the process.

How often do Powder Brows Need to be Touched Up?

In order to get the best results in cosmetic tattoo we recommend a touch up session after your initial treatment. In most cases, it is obligatory because everyone heals differently. There are many factors that affect the longevity of permanent makeup. Clients, who like tanning, sunbathing, going to the gym, swimming, who use different kinds of skincare products and who have oily skin might fade faster and would require touchup sessions. As for the annual powder brow touchups we recommend you come back after 6 to 18 months, depending on your lifestyle and how your eyebrows are faded.
