Microblading
If you’ve been seeking microblading in Kitchener or eyebrow shading near you, we can help you achieve those perfect filled-in and full-looking brows. Microblading is a form of cosmetic tattooing where pigment is deposited directly into your skin using a specialized technique. The experts at Waterloo Medical Cosmetics will mimic the movement of your natural hair and lay down lines of pigment to fill in the lighter parts of your eyebrow.
Eyebrow Lamination
We understand that people have different tastes and preferences, which is why we work on understanding your needs and shape your brows exactly how you want them. Let us help you achieve your brow goals.
Brow lamination in Waterloo is probably the simplest way of achieving lush, brushed-up brows. While performing this service, our experts manipulate your existing brow hairs to cover the sparse patches for a more even effect. Then, we use a lifting cream to ensure the hair stays put in the new position.
This semi-permanent treatment lasts for about six to eight weeks and is completely non-invasive. We recommend pairing it with our brow tinting service for exceptional results.
Common Questions
What is a laser and how do they work?
Lasers use specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin or hair follicle. By adjusting the wavelengths of the light, the intensity and the surface area affected, our Skin Specialists can cause a wide range of changes to the skin.
Are these treatments safe?
We understand it is natural to worry about any treatments that take place around the eyes, be it lash lifts, extensions, or even microblading. At Waterloo Medical Cosmetics, our experts take utmost care to ensure our procedures don't harm your eyes. We also use proven products which don’t damage the sensitive skin around your eyes.
What does it feel like and are there side effects?
Although our laser’s have a large range of uses, there can be side effects. Post treatment you may notice some mild burning/tightening sensation, redness, swelling, which is completely normal. It would be unusual for pain to linger or for blistering to occur, occasionally the laser can cause cold-sores to flare, we will not work on an area with active cold-sores, this will be discussed during your consultation.
The sensation during the procedure has sometimes been compared to a light rubber band snapping against the area that becomes less noticeable after a few minutes, we offer numbing and cooling for patient comfort, but most clients say it is quick and painless. In particular, our Coolpeel laser, is used for skin resurfacing to create glowing skin, it was specifically designed for minimal discomfort and downtime, creating only a mild “sunburn-like” redness for a day or so and leaves you with the smoothest, glowing skin.
To reduce the chance of complications, we’ll send you home with post-treatment instructions and a list of do’s and don’ts. In particular, you’ll want to avoid touching the area, certain medications like retinol and strenuous activities for a few days. Not to worry, our Skin Specialists will guide you through the entire process, so you know what to do!
