Permanent eyebrow makeup, powder dusting. Before and after photos, how long, healing

Permanent eyebrow makeup using powder coating technique is one of the most popular ways to transform the appearance among modern girls. With the help of tattooing, masters can not only emphasize the natural beauty and correctness of the facial features of their client, but also correct imperfections, for example, the asymmetric shape of the eyebrows or the uneven growth of natural hairs.

A decision on the advisability of creating permanent makeup in a particular case should be made only after a thorough study of the process itself, as well as its positive and negative aspects.

Permanent eyebrow makeup with a powdery effect - what is it?

Permanent eyebrow makeup (powder coating) is the latest tattooing technique, a distinctive feature of which is driving pigment exclusively into the upper layers of the skin. Unlike other types of eyebrow shading, powder shading involves the creation of a light tint coloring, with which you can emphasize the created shape of the eyebrows, giving them additional expressiveness.

The master, working in the technique of powdering, imitates professionally applied makeup with a regular pencil or shadows. The end result of the process is usually not visible to the prying eye, but at the same time creates an even skin tone in the area of ​​brow hair growth.

Despite the lack of intense color, powder coating lasts as long as other types of permanent make-up, which significantly save the girl's time on daily application of cosmetics on her face.

Differences between powdery tattooing and microblading

It is a mistake to believe that powdery tattooing is similar in its technique to microblading. Despite the fact that both types of tattoo are the most natural in imitation of natural eyebrows among their counterparts, the processes of their creation are significantly different.

Powder spraying implies imitation of shading with shadows or pencils, for which the master distributes the pigment pointwise. When working in the microblading technique, to draw eyebrow hairs, it is required to create deep thin cuts, into which the paint of the previously selected shade will later be driven into.

The difference between powder coating and microblading also lies in the process of rehabilitating the skin after the procedure. In the first case, the final result will be visible much earlier (after about a week), while healing is almost imperceptible.

In the second case, the girl may experience discomfort and even pain when accidentally touching her eyebrows with her hands or, for example, a pillow for the entire month, which is usually required for the complete healing of injured skin areas.

Advantages and disadvantages of powder coating

Powdery browning, like other types of permanent makeup, has a number of advantages and disadvantages. Familiarization with them in advance of the procedure minimizes the risk of subsequent regret in the girl about the changes in her appearance.

Who are powder eyebrows suitable for?

It is recommended to choose powder coating for girls who have:

• there is a desire to make permanent makeup as natural as possible, invisible to the people around;
• there is a need to bring the color of the eyebrows closer to the shade of the hair growing on the head (arises in the case of repainting, for example, a blonde into a brunette);
• the eyebrows themselves do not have a clear border, the hairs grow in different directions, creating a negligent appearance;
• there are "bald patches" in the eyebrow area, which can be corrected simply by painting over the skin, without additional drawing of hairs;
• the pigment in the eyebrow hairs fade with prolonged exposure to the sun or during regular visits to the tanning salon by the girl.

Permanent makeup using the powder coating technique is suitable primarily for those girls who are satisfied with the shape, curl and density of their natural eyebrows. With the help of tattooing, they just want to emphasize their natural beauty and get rid of the need for daily eyebrow tinting with pencil or shadows.

Contraindications

Permanent eyebrow makeup (powder coating) as well as other types of tattooing has a number of contraindications.

It is not recommended to choose this type of appearance transformation for people with:

• active diseases in the body that have a viral origin;
• injured skin in the eyebrow area (regardless of the age of the scar or scar formation);
• a tendency to manifest allergic reactions, including to the components of the composition of the pigment used by the master;
• high blood sugar;
• disorders in the processes associated with blood clotting;
• congenital predisposition to bleeding.

Powder dusting is also contraindicated for women who are expecting a baby and for nursing mothers. Given the instability of their hormonal background, the result of the procedure in question in their case will be unpredictable (the shade may become darker or lighter, the paint under the skin may "float", and so on).

Tools and materials

To create a powdery effect on the eyebrows, salon craftsmen use a special machine with a replaceable tip.In the presence of each client, an individual package is opened with a sterile needle, which is then inserted into the handle of the tattoo device.

With its help, the pigment is sprayed into the upper layers of the skin (the needle is inserted less than 1 mm). Considering the absence of deep trauma to the skin during the procedure, ichor and blood do not stand out when creating a powdery coating.

In addition to a special tool for transforming the client's eyebrows, the master uses several colors of different shades. Pigments are mixed with each other to obtain the most suitable (determined taking into account the appearance of a particular person) tone and applied in several layers.

Preparation for the procedure

How the powder coating will look depends not only on the qualifications of the master, but also on the client's compliance with the recommendations at the preparatory stage (usually its duration is no more than a week) and during the rehabilitation period.

Before the procedure for creating permanent makeup, it is not recommended:

• to steam the skin artificially, for example, while visiting a sauna or bath;
• visit solariums or sunbathe in the open sun;
• independently correct the shape of the eyebrows with tweezers;
• use care products with a greasy composition;
• tint eyebrows with shadows or pencil;
• make masks and other facial skin care procedures at home (when visiting a salon, you must warn the beautician that eyebrow tattooing is due in the near future).

To minimize the risk of undesirable consequences, the masters advise their clients:

• wipe your face daily with micellar water or light tonics;
• within 3 days before the procedure, take a course of Acyclovir tablets (the dosage is calculated according to the instructions);
• limit the consumption of highly allergenic foods and salty foods;
• on the eve of the procedure, do not drink a lot of fluids;
• stop drinking coffee, alcohol, energy drinks, smoking.

Spraying technique, duration, pain

Permanent eyebrow makeup (powder coating) is considered the most painless procedure among its counterparts. Despite the fact that it can be carried out without preliminary anesthesia, the vast majority of masters apply an anesthetic cream to the client's brow area (for 15-30 minutes) before the main part of the work.

If, during the creation of a tattoo, a person experiences acute pain or burning from the penetration of the needle, the application of anesthetic can be repeated.

In total, it will take 60 to 80 minutes to shape the eyebrows.

The work of the master is divided into several stages:

1. Cleanse the "work area" of the face with micellar water.
2. Correct the eyebrows, giving them the shape desired by the client, taking into account the basic rules of facial architecture. Check with the client.
3. Apply anesthetic to the area that will later fall under the needle (usually a cream or gel that contains lidocaine is used).
4. Use an eyebrow pencil to draw the final outline of the eyebrows. Check with the client.
5. Blend the pigment into the upper layers of the skin.
6. Apply a special agent to the eyebrows, which helps to soothe injured skin and fix the previously driven pigment.

Healing stages

The normal process of skin regeneration after tattooing takes about a week. Despite this, it will be possible to evaluate the final result of the procedure only after a month. During this time, the paint will show up as much as possible, and the top layer of the skin will be renewed naturally.

First day - puffiness

On the first day after the procedure, the eyebrows look unnatural: they are much darker than the natural shade of the client's hair and thicker than the shape previously drawn by the master. This is considered normal at this stage of healing.

The masters, knowing about the peculiarities of the rehabilitation process, specially choose a pigment 2-3 shades darker. Over time, the skin will "push away" some of the dye (about 60%) and the eyebrows will acquire a shaped look.

The body, when injected into the skin of paint, activates the protective functions: the injured area swells, reddens, from microtraumas (in rare cases) the ichor is released. This is necessary to minimize the risk of a person contracting an infectious disease.

On the first day after creating permanent make-up, do not touch or wet your eyebrows. In agreement with the master, to speed up the process of tissue regeneration, healing creams can be applied in a thin layer using a cotton swab.

Second day - darkening of the eyebrows

On the second day after the creation of the tattoo, the eyebrows darken. This is due to the distribution of pigment in the subcutaneous space. In addition, during the night, an ichor is produced in large quantities, and, if a person cannot remove its excess during sleep, in the morning it forms a kind of film that visually darkens the eyebrows.

On the second day, you should still avoid contact of eyebrows with water and wipe them with a dry cotton pad to get rid of excess ichor. It is not recommended to expose the skin to temperature changes that cause pores to narrow and expand.

At this stage, the swelling has already subsided, redness is minimal, and pain does not occur even when the eyebrows are touched with the fingers (this is undesirable). If an allergic rash occurs on the second day after the creation of permanent make-up, it is recommended to take a quick-acting antihistamine, such as Zodak or Fenistil.

Third day - crusting

In the third aspect, the color of the tattoo remains unchanged, but a thin crust begins to form on the surface of the eyebrows, invisible to others. The girl herself during this period may experience stiffness when moving her eyebrows. This process means the beginning of the recovery of the injured skin area.

It is strictly forbidden to get rid of the crusts on your own, as this can provoke:

• bleeding, after which additional forces are required from the body to regenerate an already deeper wound;
• an increase in the healing period of permanent makeup;
• the occurrence of uneven edema, affecting the general appearance of the girl.

  

It is imperative to avoid accidentally breaking the crust, for example, due to the cap or contact with the pillow. Starting from the third day, craftsmen usually give their clients permission to fully wash their face with water.

From the fourth - active healing

During the normal course of the rehabilitation period, the crusts on the eyebrows begin to crack from day 4, preparing to fall off on their own in the near future. The shade of the hammered pigment is usually darker than the natural color due to the visual deception from the tightened crusts.

At this stage, itching may occur, which can be eliminated by applying an antiseptic and a healing ointment in the direction of the brow hair growth. If a piece of the crust falls off on its own and stays on a hair, it can be removed with pre-disinfected tweezers, being careful not to touch the nearby tattoo coating.

Results in a month

A week after the powder spraying procedure, the crusts fall off on their own, and the further rehabilitation process already takes place naturally without the participation of the girl.

Despite the fact that most of the healing is behind, the masters even after a month recommend to their clients:

• do not steam the skin artificially (up to 2 months after the procedure);
• do not roughly rub, scratch or scratch the delicate skin in the eyebrow area;
• avoid drinking large amounts of alcohol.

If the rehabilitation process does not stop within a month, it is necessary to consult with the master who performed the procedure for creating permanent makeup.

The need to correct powder coating, how soon will it be needed?

Permanent eyebrow makeup (powder coating), like other types of tattooing, requires periodic correction. The first improvement of the result of the procedure is recommended to be carried out one month after driving in the pigment. At the second consultation, the master can paint over areas where the pigment is unevenly distributed or has come off during the healing process.

In addition, during the correction, it will be possible to correct the shape or bend of the eyebrows (if the result does not suit the client) After the second session, the subsequent "refresh" must be carried out at least once every 6 months. If you ignore this recommendation, the powder coating will begin to fade and after 1-2 years it will completely disappear from the skin surface.

Basic spraying and correction price

The cost of basic spraying varies from the location of a particular beauty salon, its image, as well as the qualifications of the master who will do the tattoo. In Moscow, the cost of this type of permanent makeup is 10 - 12 thousand rubles.

In St. Petersburg, a similar procedure will have to spend 11-13 thousand rubles. In the regions, the prices for tattooing are much lower. Taking into account the possibilities of the consumer segment, permanent eyebrow makeup masters set prices for powder dusting from 7 to 10 thousand rubles.

The correction price is usually 50% of the original session price.

Further "refresh", after more than six months from the first procedure, is assessed by the master depending on the current state of the client's eyebrows (if the powder coating needs significant restoration, the price will be equal to the cost of the initial consultation; if a minor adjustment is required - 50% of the initial cost of the procedure).

Can i do eyebrow spraying at home?

Eyebrow spraying should be carried out in a specially equipped beauty salon, where the master will have the opportunity to keep their tools sterile and store pigments in proper conditions. It is impossible to make a tattoo neatly on your own at home.

Is it possible to do powdery eyebrows on an old tattoo?

Despite the fact that it is not recommended to apply powder dusting on old tattoo, since due to the minimum shading density, the previous shape of the eyebrows will still be visible, many tattoo artists provide similar services. Ideally, it is necessary to remove the unsuccessful permanent make-up and only then repeat the procedure for long-term eyebrow shaping.

Is it possible to do powdery makeup in the summer?

Powdery permanent make-up, like other types of tattooing, is not recommended in summer.

This is due to the fact that during the hot season the pores undergo a constant change of state, which can affect the distribution of pigment. In addition, in the heat, the skin of the vast majority of people becomes oily. This feature prevents the paint from adhering to the upper layers of the skin after creating permanent makeup.

How to get rid of a bad result

With insufficient experience and qualifications of the master, as well as due to the lack of proper eyebrow care after tattooing, the result of the procedure can disappoint the girl.

In case of unsuccessful permanent make-up, a competent master can offer:

• adjust previous work (perhaps only if you need to increase the thickness of the eyebrows or color saturation);
• remove pigment from the top layer of the skin (an expensive painful procedure);
• wait until the paint starts to fade on its own, and only then carry out the correction.

Powdery eyebrow dusting, despite the fact that it is considered a relatively new type of permanent make-up, has already won the hearts of a large number of girls who want to emphasize the naturalness of their image and the natural beauty of eyebrows.

In order to avoid unforeseen situations, before creating a long-term eyebrow shaping, it is necessary to study the positive and negative aspects of the procedure, as well as the rules for its implementation and the possible consequences of ignoring the recommendations during the rehabilitation period.
