Frequently Asked Questions

At National Brow Clinic, we know that permanent makeup is a big decision. Below are answers to the most common questions our clients ask before booking.

---

1. What exactly is permanent makeup?

It’s a cosmetic tattooing technique where carefully selected pigments are implanted into the dermis to enhance features like brows, lips, or lash lines. The result? Low-maintenance beauty with continuously polished results.

---

2. How long does permanent makeup last?

It varies. Most people need a colour boost every 3–5 years. Skin type, sun exposure, and skincare all affect how long it lasts.

---

3. Does permanent makeup hurt?

We take pain management seriously. With the right numbing products and techniques, most clients feel little to no discomfort—and some even fall asleep during the service.

---

4. What’s the healing process like?

Initial healing takes about a week. You’ll notice some dryness and fading as the pigment settles. Following aftercare closely makes all the difference in how your results look long term.

---

5. How do I choose the right shape and colour?

I use facial mapping techniques and experience from thousands of clients to create a shape and colour plan that suits your face. You’ll be part of the process every step of the way.

---

6. Can permanent makeup be removed or corrected?

Yes—and it requires skill. At National Brow Clinic, correction and saline removal are specialties. Whether you’re looking to lighten old pigment or fix shape and tone, we’ll give you honest feedback and a realistic plan.

---

7. Is permanent makeup safe?

Yes—when it’s done properly. We follow strict hygiene protocols, use high-quality pigments, and perform every procedure in a clean, licensed environment. Your safety is non-negotiable.

---

8. Will I still need to wear makeup?

You might choose to wear less—but you won’t need to. Permanent makeup gives you a polished, defined look that holds up through everyday life. You can always layer regular makeup on top for more intensity when you want it.

---

9. Can you work over old permanent makeup?

In many cases, yes. It depends on how faded the pigment is, what shape it’s in, and what your goals are. Every case is different, and we’ll assess yours honestly—sometimes removal or correction is needed before a fresh start.

Not sure what’s right for you?

We recommend a complimentary phone consultation to go over your goals, assess your needs, and answer any questions you still have. This is your face—you deserve expert advice before you commit to anything.
