What to expect
Your appointment begins with a one-on-one consultation to go over your medical history, assess your skin and talk you through your goals. We’ll also discuss possible risks, side effects and expected outcomes, and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have about the tattoo. If there’s any reason powder brows aren’t suitable for you, your dermal clinician will walk you through alternative options.
Once cleared, your ideal brow shape is mapped out using a cosmetic pencil. After you approve the outline, reference photos are taken for your clinical record. A topical anaesthetic is then applied to help minimise any discomfort before proceeding.
The treatment involves depositing pigment into the skin using a micropigmentation device. You might feel a light prickling or tingling sensation as your clinician works on the area. While sensitivity levels can vary, most clients find the treatment very manageable.
Duration
Ombre powder brow tattoo appointments take two to three hours. Six to eight weeks later, a follow-up session is arranged to assess healing and fine-tune any areas if necessary.
Downtime
Initial healing typically occurs within seven to 10 days. Mild redness, scabbing or swelling is common during this time. The pigment may appear darker than expected at first, but it gradually lightens as the area heals.
Full recovery can take up to six weeks. You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions to support healing and pigment retention. This usually includes keeping the area clean and dry for the first 24 hours and avoiding sun exposure, sweating and makeup on the brows during the healing process.

FAQs
What are ombre powder brows?
Ombre powder brows is a semi-permanent tattooing technique that gives the brows a softly shaded, makeup-like finish. Using a micropigmentation device, pigment is layered into the skin to create a gradual fade from a lighter front to a more defined tail. The effect resembles the look of brows filled in with pencil or powder and suits clients seeking shape and symmetry.
How long do powder brows last?
Powder brows typically last one to three years. Longevity depends on your skin type, lifestyle and how well you follow the aftercare instructions. Attending your recommended touch-up session also helps extend the result.
What should I do before my powder brows appointment?
Before your appointment, avoid alcohol, caffeine and blood-thinning medications for at least 24 hours, unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Refrain from tweezing, waxing or tinting your brows for several days before treatment.
How do I take care of my powder brows after the treatment?
Keep the brow area dry and avoid touching, picking or applying makeup. Follow the aftercare routine provided by your clinician. This includes gently cleansing the area using only recommended products and avoiding excessive sun, heat and exercise for at least a week.
