Lavishing Eyebows Microblading Waiver


What is Microblading?
Microblading (or eyebrow embroidery) is a manual method that does not use a normal permanent makeup machine. Manual Microstroking, sometimes referred to as Brow Micropigmentation, Manual Technique, Hand Method Eyebrow Permanent Makeup, Feather Brows, 3D Brows, Cosmetic Tattooing, originated in Asia and has become very popular in the last few years all across the world!

Microblading is done by using a unique hand instrument with a small row of very fine micro needles that deposit pigment into the surface of the dermis (skin) creating feathering strokes. The pigment is implanted in the basal membrane, which divides the epidermis from the Dermis layer of the skin. This creates very crisp, fine hair strokes intended to provide a more defined beautiful look to your brows. 

What is MicroShading?

MicroShading is a relatively new technique that has become extremely popular in the Permanent Makeup Industry. This advanced technique is created using a manual hand tool or a PMU machine that gently inserts the pigment underneath the Dermis layer of the skin creating a beautiful, more defined powder effect to the brows compared to old fashion tattoos. MicroShading is commonly referred to as Powdered Brows, Shaded Brows, and Ombre Brows and is recommended for individuals who desire a more pronounced make-up look.

How long does it last?
Everyone is different; it can last 1-3 years.  Certain factors such as density of pigment, environment (UV light, tanning) and overall health, physiology of the skin, impact how long microblading/shading results last. Retention of pigment varies with each person, a color boost touch-up is usually recommended yearly, some clients require a touch-up every 6 months depending on their skin. 

If you have oily skin, the pigment tends to fade faster. It is very important to follow aftercare instructions carefully for best results. 

Does it hurt?
This is designed to be a gentle procedure with minimal discomfort. The degree of discomfort will depend on several factors, such as if you opt for anesthetics, the location of the treatment, and your pain threshold. In the beginning, you will feel a scratching feeling while we are marking the shape and design of the brow. A numbing cream is then applied which is absorbed into the skin within a few seconds. Once the cream has been absorbed, you will have very little or no feeling.

Initial Consultation:

The brow design is drawn in pencil so you get an idea of shape and form.

A photo is taken of you so we can study the symmetry of your features. No one is exactly the same, and what we see as your ideal brow might not be what you want, we want to achieve your desired brow. Our goal is to obtain symmetry and communicate realistic expectations. Please remember we can't make you look like your favorite celebrity, we are brow artists, not plastic surgeons but we can definitely make your brows looks amazingly beautiful!

Lavishing Eyebrows Pre-care instructions:

Thank you for choosing Lavishing Eyebrows for your Microblading/Microshading procedure!

Please make sure to read the following instructions to assure the best results for your procedure. It is very important to refrain from alcohol, Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, or any form of blood thinners 24 hrs or more prior to your appointment.

Tylenol is permitted for aches and pains, this medication will not interfere with the procedure. 

Refrain from Vit E and fish oil capsules at least 48 hrs prior to the procedure

Do not drink coffee, alcohol, or energy drinks up to 24 hrs prior to your treatment and/or on the day of treatment. This will help you relax much easier during the procedure and it will also help relax the facial muscles benefiting the brow area. 
If you tint your brows, do it 2-3 days prior to treatment
Do not tan or sunbathe your face 3 days before treatment.
You must complete any waxing at least 2 days before the treatment.
No chemical peels, dermabrasion, mesotherapy, or any other intense treatments. This will cause skin cells to rejuvenate faster which will result in skin irritation. We recommend any of these be done at least a week before micropigmentation.

Thank you again! We look forward to seeing you. You are one step away from having beautiful brows!

Lavishing Eyebrows Microblading/MicroShading - AfterCare Instructions

Aftercare is very important in order to achieve beautiful and lasting results Note: Please wash hands with soap before you wash or touch your eyebrows

Day 1: Wash brows 4 times using a wet gauze and soap provided to prevent immediate scab formation. Gently dab freshly tattooed brows with a damp gauze to remove all the lymph tissue. The movement of wet gauze is done in the direction of the hair without forcing the skin. Rinse gauze with cold water and remove soap by wiping the brow a second time. Then pat dry with a soft paper towel, allowing the brows to air dry. Using a Q-tip apply a thin layer of ointment the size of a rice grain to each brow by gently dabbing on the brow, making sure to cover every area of the brow. DO NOT RUN Q tip through the brow to avoid pulling the skin and any premature scabs.

Day 2 - 14 ***STOP washing!  Keep brows completely dry. Avoid direct contact to water, steam and sweat.

COMBINATION SKIN: apply ointment 4 times a day x14 days. OILY SKIN: apply the ointment 2-3 times a day. DRY SKIN:  apply ointment 5-7 times a day depending on the level of dryness.  Keep eyebrows lightly glossed. Amount used should be the size of a rice grain on each brow.

**FOR THE NEXT 14 DAYS** AVOID THE FOLLOWING:

  • Avoid direct contact to water, steam, sweat, sun.  If you're in the sun wear a hat.
  • No sauna, steam room or swimming
  • No sunbathing, or tanning your face* for 4 weeks**
  • No brow tinting, chemical peels,  facials, dermabrasion for 4 weeks.
  • Do not use any eyebrow makeup for 2 weeks.
  • Do not scratch, pick or rub brows
  • TIPS:
  • Sleep on your back for the first 7 days.
  • Do not wash your hair for the first 3 days if possible- use dry shampoo*
  • When showering, use a shower cap to cover the brows by pulling the shower cap down right above the eyelids. **Make sure to apply a layer of ointment to the brows** or use Goggles
  • When washing your hair in the shower, dab a layer of ointment to brows and cover them with a piece of plastic saran wrap. Using waterproof tape, secure plastic wrap on the brows.
  • (Clear medical tape 3M Transpore or Nexcare )
  • If you wear makeup foundation or power, protect your brows by covering them with a piece of saran wrap
  • Wear a hat if sunbathing
  • Avoid heavy workouts that make you sweat for at least 10 days

HEALING PROCESS - WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER BROW PROCEDURE

  • Scabbing, flaking, thickness, sensitivity, dry skin, itching, and color loss is all part of the healing process
  • The brows are approximately 40% darker and bolder all around VS once fully healed.
  • Hair strokes look bolder and darker due to the swelling of the skin that was worked on. This will subside within a few hrs. Scabs start to form usually 48 hrs after the procedure. Don’t be concerned when the scabs fall off this is normal.
  • It is normal to lose 40-50% of the color during the healing process once scabs fall off
  • It is normal for the brows to shrink about 10-20% in size all around
  • Color change & color loss is normal. As the skin heals, the color will lighten usually one to three shades lighter
  • Results vary from person to person. There are different factors that play an important role in color retention such as quality of the skin, large pores, thin skin, wrinkled skin, excessive secretion of lymph tissue, after care, certain health conditions, and medications. 
  • Don't panic if dry patches or scabs appear, this is all normal and part of the healing process.  Everyone’s skin heals differently. Depending on how well your skin retains the pigment determines if you will need an additional touch-up to fill in missing hairs, gaps, make hair strokes longer or achieve a more intensive color.

  • Scabbing is completely normal, all scabs will fall off eventually, the goal is to keep the scabs intact as long as possible and allow them to fall off on their own without pulling them accidentally. keep in mind the color of the scabs always turn to a darker shade as the new skin underneath is developing. when the scabs fall off, the new skin will look lighter.

  • SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
  • Severe redness, excessive swelling, severe tenderness of the procedure site, red streaks going from the procedure site towards the heart, elevated body temperature, or purulent drainage from the procedure site. If any of the above signs should occur, please seek professional medical care. 
  • *Failure to follow aftercare instructions may result in brow infection and greater pigment loss or discoloration. Everyone’s skin heals differently. Depending on how well your skin retains the pigment determines if you will need an additional touch-up to fill in missing hairs, gaps, make hair strokes longer or achieve a more intensive color. This procedure can be a two-part process, however, not everyone needs a touch-up. If a  touch-up is needed, it is recommended 6-12 weeks after the initial visit at a low cost. Please refer to price list disclosed on webpage.

I have read, understand and agree to the above instructions.

  

Old Tattooed Eyebrows:

If you have an old tattooed eyebrow, note that microblading will NOT always fully cover your tattoo. It will still likely be visible through the microblading strokes, it all depends on how light/faded the old tattoo is, a consultation is recommended. Previously tattooed clients may require more than 1 session. This can occur because of the built-up scar tissue in the brow area from the old tattoo.  We do our best to cover the existing tattoo and color match but again, due to previous work on the skin, the result will not always be ideal. If the old tattoo is too dark, laser removal may be recommended first before performing microblading. 

Another alternative to correcting old tattooed eyebrows is recommending MicroShading. In cases like these, MicroShading can cover more of the old tattoo because we are able to deposit more color to the area vs microblading.  Microshading will give the brow a more defined makeup look. The density of the old color with the new color may not always match on the first session due to the skin's ability to only absorb so much color in one session, keep in mind that a second or third session may be recommended depending on how dark the old color is.

With old tattooed brows, a correction session will most likely be needed to cancel unwanted undertones such as green, purple, grey, red and pink colors. This session can be done at an additional cost. During the correction session, the brow shape will be corrected as much as possible from the old shape including the arches, tails, and thickness of the brows. We will do our best to Color match to the old brow color as much as possible aswell as correcting & matching the density of the old color with the new color but may not always be achieved in the first session. 

Touch up:
A touch-up is recommended once a year or every 6 months after the touch-up procedure to keep the color looking fresh and beautiful. Certain factors play a role in pigment retention such quality of skin, skin type, certain medications and prolonged sun exposure. Your brows will fade as time progresses, touch-ups can be done more often depending on personal preference. Results vary from person to person. There are different factors that play an important role in color retention such as skin maturity, large pores, thin skin, wrinkled skin, excessive secretion of lymph tissue, after care, certain health conditions, and medications. Everyone’s skin heals differently, depending on how well your skin retains the pigment determines if you will need an additional touch-up to fill in missing hairs, gaps, make hair strokes longer or achieve a more intensive color.

I have read, understand, and agree with the above instructions.

  

 

Consent and Release Agreement for Microblading/Microshading

This form is designed to give the information needed to make an informed choice of whether or not to undergo a Microblading/Microshading Semi-Permanent application. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Although Microblading/Microshading is effective in most cases, no guarantee can be made that a specific client will benefit from the procedure.

Microblading/Microshading is the process of inserting pigment into the dermal layer of the skin and is a form of tattooing.

All instruments that enter the skin or come in contact with body fluids are sealed and sterilized before use and disposed of after use. Cross-contamination guidelines are stickily adhered to.

Generally, the results are excellent. However, a perfect result is not a realistic expectation. It is usual to expect a touch-up after the healing is completed.

Initially, the color will appear much more vibrant or darker compared to the end result. The color will start to fade and will lighten up after the first 7 days. The pigment is semi-permanent and will fade over time and will likely need to be touched-up within 6 months to 2 years.

Possible Risks, Hazards, or Complications

Pain: There can be pain even after the topical anesthetic has been used. Anesthetics work better on some people than on others.

Infection: Infection is very unusual. The areas treated must be kept clean, and only freshly cleaned hands should touch the areas. See After Care sheet for instructions on care.

Uneven Pigmentation: This can result from poor healing, infection, bleeding, or any other causes. Your follow-up appointment will likely correct any uneven appearance.

Asymmetry: Every effort will be made to avoid asymmetry. It is important to understand that our faces are not 100% symmetrical, there are times when the brows will seem asymmetrical depending on the facial muscle movements. Adjustments may be needed during the follow-up session to address any unevenness.

Excessive Swelling or Bruising: Some people bruise or swell more than others. Ice packs may help reduce the swelling. The swelling or bruising typically disappears in 1-5 days. Some people don't bruise or swell at all.

Anesthetics: Topical anesthetics are used to numb the area to be tattooed. Lidocaine, Prilocaine, Benzocaine, Tetracaine, and/or Epinephrine cream and/or liquid are used. If you are allergic to any of these, please inform me asap to determine which anesthetic is appropriate for you.

MRI: Because pigments used in Permanent Cosmetic procedures may contain very low levels of inert oxides, a low-level magnet may be required if you need to be scanned by an MRI machine. You must inform your MRI Technician of any tattoos or permanent cosmetics.

Treatment: Microblading/Microshading
