One and a half to two hours depending on the procedure.

An initial consultation is vital before any procedure can go ahead. It’s an opportunity for the client’s questions and concerns can be addressed.

From 8 months to 3 years. This would depend upon which area of the face is undergoing the procedure and which method is being employed.

There is some mild discomfort, but this is reduced to a bare minimum by means of a topical anaesthetic applied prior to the procedure.

Generally 7-10 days. Scabs will form in the treated area the day following the procedure. These will fall off in a week or a little over, at which time the healing process is complete.

The pigmentation colour in the treated is a lot darker for 7-10 days following the procedure. After this period the colour lightens to that chosen by the client. There will be some redness (1 day) and swelling (up to 3 days). There will also be some scabbing for 7-10 days.

During the consultation Monika will pencil in the shape and colour according to the client’s wishes and Monika’s expert judgement. When the client is entirely happy with what she sees Monika will select pigment colours which match precisely those which she has pencilled in.

Yes. I have insurance which fully covers all Semi Permanent procedures which I carry out.

All three are Semi Permanent. Microblading is best suited to those seeking the most natural result. Hairstroke and shading is the best method for those who desire a more “defined look”. During the consultation Monika will determine which method or combination of methods is best in light of the client’s wishes and Monika’s expertise and experience.

Semi Permanent eyebrow makeup corrects the shape and fills in gaps, giving a more voluminous effect. However, the existing hair will remain and will require tinting and tweezing as before the procedure.

In the case of lower eyelid blepharoplasty, depending on how low the eye liner is, there is the risk that some of it could be removed with the excess skin during surgery. The best solution in this instance would be to opt for a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. This operation is performed on the conjunctiva inside the lid and leaves no visible scarring. The operation is typically combined with laser treatment to re-tighten the skin of the eyelid. As a result, the eyeliner is left completely unscathed.

Light scabbing will begin to form on the day after the procedure and will last for 4-6 days. A light coating of Vaseline is recommended for 2-3 days after the procedure to aid the healing process. It is very important to keep the area as dry as possible to optimise healing. To this end drinking your beverages with drinking straws is advised.

No. The colour during this phase is quite deep. When the scabbing drops off, the remaining colour will be around 50% of the scabbing colour. O ver the course of the following 3-4 weeks the colour will stabilise to approximately 60% of the scabbing colour. All this is factored in during the initial pigmentation process, so you are left with the precise colour of your choice.

Once the scabbing phase is over you are free to wear lip gloss. This is a great option when you want a temporary change of colour. Throw away your lip stick though. You won’t be needing it any more!
