Eyeliner micropigmentation in Nerja
A fine eyeliner at the root of the lashes opens up the eyes and makes them more expressive without make-up. It is perfect if you wear contact lenses, do sport or simply don't want to apply make-up every day.
Eyeliner micropigmentation
We use pigments specifically for the eye area and work with the utmost precision: the line follows the shape of your eyelid so it flatters you with your eyes open or closed.
Benefits
If you have had eye surgery (refractive surgery, cataracts, blepharoplasty) at least 3–6 months must have passed and we need your ophthalmologist's approval.
More intense, awake look
Lashes appear denser
Contact-lens friendly
Water, sweat and tear resistant
No more smudged eyeliner
From very subtle to more defined
Techniques
There are four styles, which can be combined:
Inner lash: pigment between the upper lashes. Almost invisible, it just adds density. The most natural.
Upper line: a fine stroke along the lash root, which can extend slightly outwards.
Lower line: soft and smudged to frame the eye, always very discreet.
Shading: a soft, smudged effect on the eyelid, like eyeshadow, that adds depth to the eyes.
Is it right for you?
You will love it if:
Your lashes are light or sparse
You wear contact lenses or are allergic to eye make-up
You do sport, swim or spend a lot of time outdoors
You find it hard to draw eyeliner because of an unsteady hand or tired eyes
You want to optically lift droopy eyes or bring light to part of the eye area
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 decide the thickness, length and colour of the line with you, pigment it in a comfortable session and perfect it with a touch-up after 4–6 weeks.
Assessment and design
We decide with you on thickness, length and colour (black or dark brown).
Session
60 to 90 minutes with topical anaesthetic suitable for the eye area.
Healing
There may be slight eyelid swelling for 24 h. Don't wear mascara or contact lenses for 3–5 days.
Touch-up and result
Touch-up after 4–6 weeks. The result lasts 2 to 3 years or more.
How we work
Safety and precision at every step
Information consultation
We explain the whole process and go over your health, allergies and medication before you decide anything.
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.
Allergy test
Before the treatment we check that your skin tolerates the pigments.
Approved pigments and single-use materials
Pigments approved for micropigmentation, and sterile, disposable needles and cartridges.
Aftercare and touch-up
You get written care instructions for before and after, and we check the result at the touch-up appointment.
Wake up with your eyes done
Come for an assessment and we will show you which eyeliner style flatters your eyes.
Frequently asked questions
Your questions about this treatment, your session and aftercare.
Is it safe to have micropigmentation so close to the eye?
+
Yes, with eye-specific pigments, sterile single-use material and a precise technique. We protect the eye throughout the session.
Will I lose any lashes?
+
You shouldn't. We work at the root without damaging the follicle.
Can I wear contact lenses?
+
Yes, but remove them on the day and don't wear them for 3–5 days afterwards.
How long does it last?
+
It is one of the longest-lasting areas: 2 to 3 years or more, as the eyelid gets little sun and friction.
Can I have lash extensions or a lash lift?
+
Yes, once the eyeliner has healed, from about 4 weeks.
Which colour is used?
+
Black for a more intense effect or dark brown for a softer result on fair skin and hair.
Does the eyelid swell?
+
It may look slightly swollen right after; this goes down within about 48 hours. You get written aftercare for those days.
Can it disguise droopy eyes?
+
Partly. The way the line is drawn can optically lift a drooping eyelid and brighten the eyes, although the eyelid allows less correction than the brows. We assess it in the design.
