During your procedure

10 min
Consultation: The initial ten minutes may be dedicated to discussing your goals, desired eyeliner style, and medical history with the practitioner. They will assess your suitability for the procedure and answer any questions you may have regarding eyeliner treatments.
10 – 25 min
Preparation and numbing: The next phase typically involves preparing the eye area for the procedure. The practitioner will cleanse the eyelids and apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort during the eyeliner application.

Marking and planning: After the numbing cream has taken effect, the practitioner may mark the areas where the eyeliner will be applied. This step helps guide the eyeliner application process, ensuring precise placement and the desired shape.

Eyeliner application: Using specialized tools, such as a handheld microblading pen or a digital tattooing device, the practitioner will meticulously apply the eyeliner pigment to the upper or lower lash line, or both, based on your preference. The eyeliner application itself can take several minutes, with the practitioner focusing on creating clean, crisp lines and achieving the desired intensity.
25 – 30 min

Post-treatment and aftercare: Once the eyeliner application is complete, the practitioner will provide instructions for post-treatment care. They may apply a healing ointment or serum to protect the area and give guidelines on proper cleansing and aftercare.

Further consultation: The practitioner may take this time to answer any additional questions you may have, provide advice on the healing process, and schedule any required touch-up appointments.
