I had mine done last November.   I literally had NO brows...im fair and platinum blonde.  I chose to go lighter and softer, but they quickly faded to what they call ,The powdery look.  My technician allows me to come back as many times, until I'm satisfied .  I went 3x..we added deeper color, and more visible strokes.   I lost a lot, but yet, I have brows.  I would get more strokes next time.   They can fade up 70%.  Wonderful to wake up and see them.  It most definitely opens the eye area, makes me look 10 plus years younger...who knew??     Now..down time is lousy...they look like black magic marker , that scabs over, the flakes, then peels. About 14 days.   Google it.   Also, after care is crucial...do not get wet , do NOT use cosmetics,  etc.  I still feel I could use more definition, and bolder color, after seeing the benefits .   It's the down time that halts me.  I wouldn't do this before a get together...although, you can lightly pat some loose powder over, but that's about it.  Lots of info online.   I get a numbing gel to apply one hour before...does ZILCH, NADDA, NOTHING!

Very painful, especially if you need the whole dang brow done.  Bleeds A lot, so therefore, a special diet before is recommended ...no alcohol,  aspirin, fish...and there are things to promote quicker healing, if you choose .  Yes, I would do it again...why?...because I wake up with brows, that make me feel better about how I look .

No, I never did so.

Thank you @DrKelli and everyone for the great information. My brows are SO sparse from thyroid disease and as I get older, my face looks more and more washed out.

Question: What sort of business does the procedure? A dermatologist, tattoo artist,med spa, salon?

[DrKelli]

I think I would consider her operation a med spa because she does microneedling and other permanent/semi permanent makeup, and lash lifts.

Oh-and the aftercare--she told me to use coconut oil on them until the scabs were gone.  Because my brows are dark, I couldn't even see them. I could feel them, but not see them.  I also couldn't take my aspirin the day I had them done, but started after the procedure.  I was told no water for only a day--I took a regular shower the day after with no issues.

I know several people that have had it done!

2 of which had literally no brow hairs left.

The results and price vary greatly

$250 to $650

The more expensive ones definetly look much more realistic, they are AMAZING.

The $250 ones look like someone penciled on brows not like real brows.

The one woman lost a lot her brow hair due to a thyroid/autoimmune problem and she had a horrible immune reaction to the process.  They are trying to fiqure out if was the dye or the healing response that caused her problem.

Yes, several times and I love the results. Mine fade more quickly than some because I swim frequently. I literally fell asleep the first time-no pain whatever. I went to a specialist in ny that does this and tattooing but the procedures are totally different; I have done both. Expensive but worth it.
