Services
Permanent brows
Our permanent brows create natural-looking definition using simulated hair strokes or powdered effects. We utilize microblading and machine techniques to customize shape and density. Clients receive two sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart for optimal pigment retention and refinement.
3D areola tattooing
Specialized areola restoration creates realistic three-dimensional results for post-mastectomy clients. We use precise pigment matching and shading techniques to achieve natural aesthetics. This service requires advanced training and follows strict medical safety protocols.
Microdermabrasion
This non-invasive treatment exfoliates dead skin cells to improve texture and tone. We use diamond-tip or crystal technology to address fine lines, mild acne scars, and sun damage. Regular sessions promote collagen production for long-term skin health.
Skin care consultations
Customized assessments identify individual skin concerns and product needs. We analyze skin type, condition, and goals to create tailored home care regimens. Follow-up consultations ensure ongoing skin health optimization.
Chemical peels
Our chemical peels address hyperpigmentation, acne, and aging signs using medical-grade solutions. We offer VI Peel and PCA Peel options with varying strengths for different skin concerns. Treatments promote cell turnover for smoother, more radiant skin.
