As with all semi-permanent makeup treatments, client safety and skin integrity come first. Nanoblading/Microblading is not suitable for individuals who fall into any of the following categories: Medical Conditions & Health Considerations Pregnant or breastfeeding — hormonal changes affect healing and pigment retention. Diabetic (Type 1 or uncontrolled Type 2) — slower healing and increased infection risk. Active cancer treatment — chemotherapy or radiotherapy compromises the immune system and skin recovery. Blood disorders or clotting issues — increased risk of bleeding or pigment migration. Severe skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, or active acne in the brow area. Autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus, multiple sclerosis) — must be cleared by a doctor first. Bleeding disorders or use of anticoagulant medication (e.g., warfarin, heparin). Keloid or hypertrophic scarring tendency — risk of raised scars. Medications & Recent Treatments Roaccutane (isotretinoin) use within the last 12 months. Steroid use (oral or topical) near the brow area — thins the skin. Recent Botox or filler near the brows — allow at least 2–3 weeks before or after treatment. Recent chemical peels, microneedling, or laser treatments — wait at least 4 weeks. Skin & Lifestyle Factors Extremely oily skin types or extremely dry and flaky— pigment retention can be poor; alternative techniques like powder brows may be better suited. Sunburn or recently tanned skin — skin must be at its natural tone for accurate pigment selection. Prone to excessive sweating (e.g., athletes, hot yoga enthusiasts) — may affect healing and pigment bonding. Active infection or cold sores — wait until fully healed. Under 18 years old — not legally permitted. Emotional Readiness Unrealistic expectations — Nanoblading/microblading enhances, not replaces, natural brows. Difficulty following aftercare — results rely heavily on healing compliance.

Everyone’s pain threshold is different, but most clients find the treatment very manageable. You may experience some mild discomfort, often described as a light scratching or plucking sensation. A topical numbing product is used where appropriate to help minimise discomfort.

Nanoblading creates fine, hair-like strokes to mimic the appearance of natural brow hairs.Powder Brows use gentle shading to create a soft, defined, makeup-like finish.Combination Brows blend hair-like strokes with subtle shading for added definition and fullness.All three treatments are tailored to your natural brows, skin type and desired result.

Do not pick/tweeze/wax/perform electrolysis one week before procedure Do not tan two weeks prior or use fake tan 5 days prior on your face. Do not have any type of facial/peel 2 weeks prior to treatment Discontinue Vitamin A/Retinol products one month prior to treatment Do not work out the day of the procedure. Do not have botox or filler two weeks prior. Do not take Fish Oil or Vitamin E 30 days prior (natural blood thinners) Do not wax or tint your eyebrows 3 days before the procedure. Avoid exercise on the day of your appointment. In order to avoid excessive bleeding and poor colour deposit/retention: Do not drink alcohol 24 - 48 hours prior. Do not consume caffeine on the day of your procedure. Do not take an aspirin or ibuprofen for pain relief (this thins the blood) Wash your hair before your procedure as brows need to be kept dry for 10 days after.

Please schedule a patch test and consultation to assess whether your existing pigment can be covered. We may recommend laser removal sessions to achieve a cleaner base. Our brow correction treatment plan includes both laser removal and a new brow treatment for optimal, natural results. If you are not local, please email clear images of your brows in natural light with no makeup on.

Proper aftercare is essential for the best healed results. Your brows must be kept dry for the first 7 days while they heal. You’ll be provided with everything you need, including aftercare balm, protective shower visors and clear instructions to guide you through the healing process.
