NANO MACHINE STROKES - NANO BROWS
Nano is a technique also referred to as machine strokes, nanoblading, microblading or nano brows. But what is it really? A tattoo cartridge composed of 1 or more needles is used to create tiny pixels. Together those tiny pixels are combined making hair strokes, shading and fine details. All together you are left with a soft, hyper realistic brow. Nano is suitable for all skin types, whereas microblading isn’t ideal. All skin types that are candidates for pmu are able to have nano done as well.

What to Expect?
If you are pregnant, you cannot have permanent makeup done, and you will be rescheduled.
Consider waiting to take any blood thinners the morning of your appointment, you may resume after your appointment. Blood thinners include Aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, omegas, vitamin E, and more. Non-anticoagulant pain relievers, such as Tylenol, can be taken.
You must be off any antibiotics for at least 2 weeks before your appointment. Do not discontinue any medications prescribed by a physician or any necessary for your health (but some medications may be a contraindication with receiving permanent makeup).
Do not exercise the day of your appointment. This can increase your blood flow and affect your results and retention.
Do not consume alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment.
Do not consume any caffeine for 8 hours before your appointment. This includes de-caffeinated teas and coffee, caffeinated soda, most pre-workouts, and some supplements. Alcohol and caffeine will increase your blood flow and affect your results and retention.
Avoid any brow hair removal (tweezing, threading, waxing, etc.) before your appointment*. As long as possible is recommended, but at least one week is required. It is best to see how your brows naturally grow to blend the permanent makeup with your brows seamlessly and keep your brows as low maintenance as possible. *This mainly goes for initial appointments and color boosts.
Botox and any filler/injections anywhere near your forehead or eyes needs to be avoided for at least two weeks before and after your permanent makeup brow appointment to avoid altering the shape or location of your brow pigment.
Skin treatments such as Retina-A, Retinol, or Glycolic Acid thin the skin and must be discontinued 30 days prior to your brow appointment. Accutane users must be off Accutane for at least one year.
Permanent makeup cannot be performed within six months of any chemo or radiation treatments.
Permanent makeup cannot be performed over sunburns or freshly tanned skin, including from tanning beds or natural light. You will be rescheduled if you arrive for your appointment with a sunburn or freshly tanned face.
