Lash Liner
Otherwise known as lash enhancement or invisible eyeliner, lash liner permanent makeup is a very popular
treatment. Our aesthetician applies pigment in an ultra-thin line along your lash line to create a fuller, darker lash appearance. Many who receive this treatment express that the liner creates a natural eye-opening effect.
This permanent makeup solution can save you time in your daily routine applying eyeliner, and it can also
make you appear more youthful.

Lash Liner After Care:
- Ice packs protected with a cloth may be applied as necessary to reduce swelling. Sleeping elevated helps alleviate swelling sometimes seen the morning after the procedure.
- Infection is very unusual. Wash your hands before touching the treated area. A cotton tipped applicator may be used to gently cleanse the eye area. Do not expose the area to dirty or unsanitary conditions.
- Wearing glasses outdoors is a good way to protect new eyeliner from dust, etc.
- You should expect a certain amount of mattering around the eye lashes and/or bruising around the eyelid margins the morning after the procedure.
- Some itching is normal. DO NOT PICK, PEEL, OR SCRATCH the treated area or your color may heal unevenly, and you risk scarring and infection.
- After the procedure, do not apply eye makeup for three days. Eyeliner is not to be used for the first 2 weeks. Do not use eyelash curler for two weeks. After two weeks all regular makeup can be resumed without fear.
- You will use bacitracin for the first day. After the first day, apply A&D ointment in the morning.
- Do not expose your healing skin to direct shower spray, skin creams, ointments, or lotions other than what you have been instructed to use for at least 3 days following the procedure
- For the first 24 to 48 hours, it is not unusual to experience some light sensitivity. The use of sunglasses is permitted and recommended.
- After two weeks all shedding should be complete. During this time the tattoo may appear vanished, this is a normal part of the healing process, and the pigment will re-emerge.
- Schedule your touch-up appointment five weeks after the treatment.
- There can be pain even after the topical anesthetic has been used. The effectiveness of local anesthetics can vary among patients.
- Topical anesthetics are used to numb the area to be treated. A mixture of Lidocaine, Prilocaine, Benzocaine, Tetracaine, and Epinephrine in a cream or gel form is typically used. If you are allergic to any of these, please inform your provider at this time.
- MRI: Pigments used in permanent cosmetic procedures contain inert oxides which may interfere with an MRI imaging. You must inform your technician of any tattoos or permanent makeup/cosmetic procedures prior to scan.
- Allergic Reaction: There is a small possibility of an allergic reaction with this procedure.
