If you prefer not to use permanent eyeliner, however, you still want the appearance of thicker and fuller lashes effortlessly, lash-line enhancement is a procedure that might be the answer. This technique is perfect for people who’d like for their eyes to “pop” out without having a liner look.
To have your lash line look more defined, we can implant a small amount of cosmetic pigment right under top layer of your skin along your lashes.(no wings added or going above your natural lash line. This treatment is semi-permanent and only lasts for few years. The pigment will fade overtime as your skin exfoliates.
1. Consultation
We work with our clients to pick a style and a pigment for eyer eyeliner. You can either wear your normal eyeliner to show us what you like or bring any pictures or videos that inspire you. We will go over important post-care instructions to insure the best healing results
2. Preparing for the procedure
We use alcohol wipes to disinfect the skin. After we will pre-numb the skin to make the procedure more comfortable.
3. Starting Procedure
When the skin becomes numb, we will begin using a PM machine to add pigment. We start by creating a line by puncturing the top level of the skin and implanting multiple small dots to saturate the skin with the desired pigment.
4. Cleaning up work
Once the saturation of the color we picked gets high enough, we will clean up the work then you are all done! This normally takes about 1 hour to deposit the right amount of pigment

AFTERCARE FOR Eyes Tattoo
Day 1 (Day of procedure)
- We will be sending you home with a pack of cotton rounds soaked in a mixture of soap and water in it. Please wipe your eyelids gently with it once an hour for 4 hours post the procedure (to remove the lymph on top of your skin).
- Other than that, try to keep your eyes dry (no swimming or using the sauna) and keep your eyes as you can while taking shower.
- If your eyes swell, you may take anti-inflammatory medication.
- Do not touch anywhere near your eye area.
- No excessive exercise for the first week.
- Before bedtime, we recommend icing your eyes with a clean, cold cloth.
- Do NOT apply ice directly to the eyes.
Day 2
- You can expect the eyes to be swollen the day after. The amount of swelling varies on the person’s age, health, medications taken as well as eyeliner size.
- Swelling will start decreasing on the second day.
Day 3
Your skin will be dry. You can use a thin layer of healing ointment such as Aquaphor or Grapeseed oil. Adding too much will prevent the skin from breathing, causing irritation and dermatitis. Only apply ointment if necessary.
- If you experience any negative reactions stop applying ointment and contact your doctor.
- Keep your skin hydrated with ointment for 2 weeks until scabs are gone, helping skin renew faster.
- For the first week, you should avoid exposing your eyes to the sun, water on your eyes, saunas, pools, and sweating.
- No makeup for 3 weeks!
- Do not touch scabs, this could slow down the healing.
- Wait at least 4 weeks before using any exfoliating products or creams containing acid.
- It takes full 4 weeks for the pigment to completely show through. Please, be patient.
- At the end of that time, you’d be able to decide if you need to schedule a touch-up (if pigment did not take in some areas)
- We suggest waiting 8 weeks for a touch-up to provide extra healing time for clients.
The Healing Phase: What to expect
Days 1-3
- Some symptoms you may experience are occasional swelling and redness.
- Your liner will appear thicker, 2-3 shades darker.
Days 4-7
- Your liner starts scabbing. Once scabs fall off, the eyeliner will become very light. Please, do not touch your scabs!
Days 7-10
- Your liner may still look too light and possibly patchy. Give full 4 weeks for true color to show up and for patchiness to go away.
Day 11- Week 8
- Your skin will begin to heal, and the liner will darken.
- Younger skin may take about 4 weeks healing whereas older skin typically takes 6-8 weeks in healing time.
- Once the skin looks healed, it’s normal for there to be spotty pigment parts. Your skin appears significantly lighter when your scabs fall off. Color of skin lightens 30-40%
