Eyebrow micropigmentation in Nerja

Well-designed brows bring balance to the face and expression to the eyes. With eyebrow micropigmentation we fill gaps, correct asymmetry and define the shape that suits you best, with a natural result that lasts one to three years.

01

Eyebrow micropigmentation

Before any pigment, we design the brow on your face using face-mapping measurements: start, arch and tail according to your features, your expression and how you wear make-up. We don't start until you love the design.

02

Benefits

We choose the pigment according to your skin and hair tone so the brow heals to a natural shade, without turning grey or reddish over time.

  • Defined brows when you wake up

  • Fills gaps and sparse areas

  • Corrects asymmetry

  • Ideal if you are allergic to make-up

  • Water and sweat resistant

  • Design tailored to your face

03

Techniques

Depending on your skin and the look you want, we work with three techniques:

  • Hair strokes: fine strokes that mimic real hairs. The most natural effect; ideal for normal or dry skin.

  • Powder brows: a soft gradient like powder make-up. Longer lasting and great for oily skin.

  • Combined: hair strokes at the front and shading through the body and tail for density without losing a natural look.

04

Is it right for you?

It is especially suitable if:

  • Your brows are thin or sparse from years of plucking

  • There are gaps or asymmetries you fill in every day

  • You have lost hair through alopecia or medical treatment (after assessment)

  • You want to refresh an old micropigmentation that is in good condition

05

When it is not recommended

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding

  • Isotretinoin (Roaccutane) treatment in the last 6 months

  • Tendency to keloid scarring

  • Uncontrolled diabetes or clotting disorders

  • Active infection, wounds or dermatitis in the area

  • Ongoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy

How is it done?

We design the brow on your face and, once you are happy, implant the pigment in a main session; after 4–6 weeks a touch-up sets the colour.

  1. Assessment and design — Eyebrow micropigmentation

    Assessment and design

    We design the shape with measurements and pencil, choose the shade and you approve it before we start.

  2. Session — Eyebrow micropigmentation

    Session

    60 to 90 minutes with topical anaesthetic. It is a comfortable session; most clients describe a light tingling.

  3. Healing — Eyebrow micropigmentation

    Healing

    In the first days the colour looks stronger and the skin flakes slightly. Avoid sun, swimming pools and make-up on the area for about 10 days.

  4. Touch-up and result — Eyebrow micropigmentation

    Touch-up and result

    After 4–6 weeks we do the touch-up to set the colour and refine details. The result lasts 1 to 2 years with maintenance.

How we work

Safety and precision at every step

  1. Information consultation

    We explain the whole process and go over your health, allergies and medication before you decide anything.

  2. Design made for you

    We draw the design to suit your features and choose the pigment for your skin tone. We don't start until you are happy with it.

  3. Allergy test

    Before the treatment we check that your skin tolerates the pigments.

  4. Approved pigments and single-use materials

    Pigments approved for micropigmentation, and sterile, disposable needles and cartridges.

  5. Aftercare and touch-up

    You get written care instructions for before and after, and we check the result at the touch-up appointment.

Your questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about this treatment, your session and aftercare.

What is the difference between microblading and eyebrow micropigmentation?

+

Microblading is done by hand with a micro-needle blade and places pigment more superficially; micropigmentation uses a device, is more versatile (hair strokes, powder) and usually lasts longer, especially on oily skin.

How long does eyebrow micropigmentation last?

+

1 to 2 years depending on your skin, the technique and aftercare. Sun and exfoliating products fade it sooner. We recommend maintenance every 12–18 months.

Does it hurt?

+

We apply topical anaesthetic, so it is very bearable. Most people describe a light scratching or tingling.

Can I choose the shape and colour?

+

Yes. The design is drawn and adjusted with you before we start, and the pigment is chosen to suit your skin and hair tone.

What should I avoid afterwards?

+

For about 10 days: don't soak the area, avoid sun, pools and saunas, don't apply make-up to the brows or pick the scabs.

I have an old micropigmentation I don't like. Can it be corrected?

+

It depends on the colour and intensity. Sometimes it can be covered; other times it is better to lighten it first with laser. We assess it in consultation.

Do you do hair strokes?

+

Yes. Micro-nano needles create very fine hair strokes; we also do powder shading, which adds density, or a combination of both. We choose the technique for your skin and the effect you want.

Can it make my eyes look younger?

+

Yes. Working on the arch and tail of the brow visually lifts the eyes and the face looks more rested. We check it in the design before any pigment goes in.
