Permanent makeup consultation in Kyiv

Choose the pigment before the needle.

A paid 45-minute session where we read your skin undertone, compare pigment swatches on paper, and talk openly about healing, fading and touch-up expectations. You leave with a written plan, not a procedure booking.

How the 45 minutes actually run

One paid session in Kyiv, no needle involved. Four fixed stages, in this order, every time.

  1. 01

    Intake and goal setting

    We start with your routine, makeup habits and what you want to change. You leave with a written summary of realistic options and no changes made to your skin.

  2. 02

    Style selection

    Brow, lip and eyeliner references are reviewed side by side. Shapes are compared against your face proportions until one direction is agreed, not guessed.

  3. 03

    Pigment discussion

    Cool, warm and neutral pigments are compared as flat swatches. Undertone, oxidation risk and how each line fades on your skin type are discussed before a choice is recorded.

  4. 04

    Procedure and maintenance briefing

    A walkthrough of the appointment, healing timeline, patch test and touch-up policy. Pricing, aftercare and the 18+ requirement are confirmed in writing.

The session is cosmetic and informational. Medical questions are referred to a qualified doctor.

Pigment library

What each pigment does once it heals

These are the codes we open on the table during a paid consultation. Healed color moves with skin type, undertone and aftercare, so the notes below describe tendencies, not promises of an exact match.

Table 04. Pigment codes, undertone, oxidation risk, expected fading and aftercare note
Pigment Undertone Oxidation risk Expected fading Aftercare note
C-04 Clay Ash Cool, slightly grey Low. Grey base stays neutral 18 to 24 months Lip line work. Touch-up reviewed at week six
L-07 Rosewood Cool berry Moderate. Can drift pink on warm skin 15 to 20 months Lip blush. Patch test 48 hours before the procedure
B-11 Warm Taupe Warm neutral Moderate. Sharpens warm over time 12 to 18 months Brow work. Keep healed brows off direct sun
N-09 Sand Beige Warm, yellow based High. Warms quickly on cool undertones 6 to 12 months Brow correction only. Needs frequent refresh
E-02 Charcoal Neutral cool Low. Stable black base 24 months and longer Eyeliner. Migration and MRI disclosures explained first

Fading ranges come from studio follow-ups, not from manufacturer claims. Pigment migration, allergic reaction and scarring are discussed before any booking. If you have a medical question about a healed area, ask a qualified doctor. Read the full pigment and risk notes.

05 Before you book

Five reasons to postpone the needling

The consultation is a conversation, not a commitment. Still, some conditions mean we wait, refer you to a doctor, or plan a different date. Read the list before you pay for a slot.

  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding

    We schedule permanent makeup after this period ends. Pigment behaviour and healing are too unpredictable to plan around.

  • Active skin irritation in the treatment area

    Eczema, psoriasis, cold sores, or a breakout at the brow or lip line mean rescheduling. The area needs calm skin first.

  • Blood thinners and some supplements

    Anticoagulants, aspirin routines, and high-dose fish oil affect pigment retention. Your prescribing doctor decides whether to pause anything.

  • A history of keloid or hypertrophic scarring

    Bring it up at the consultation. We discuss patch testing and whether a healed result is realistic for your skin.

  • Recent peels, laser, or isotretinoin

    Chemical peels, laser sessions, and retinoid medication need a waiting window. We confirm the timing together before booking a procedure.

Anything on this list is a reason to talk, not to cancel. Read the pigment and risk notes, or send the question through the studio contact form. Medical questions belong with a qualified doctor, not with us.

06 Aftercare

Healing in steps, fees in plain numbers

Permanent makeup is a two-stage result: the fresh pigment is not the healed colour. This is the timeline we walk through at the end of your 45-minute consultation in Kyiv, along with the patch test date and the products to pause.

  1. Days 1-3

    Redness and a darker tone

    Colour reads 20-30% stronger than the final result. Keep the area dry and skip makeup, sauna, pool and sun for the first week.

  2. Days 4-10

    Flaking, not fading

    Uneven patches are normal. Do not pick or scratch; itching settles on its own within a few days.

  3. Weeks 2-4

    Colour settles

    The healed tone is usually softer and cooler than on day one. We photograph it at your review so any adjustment is planned rather than guessed.

  4. Weeks 6-8

    Touch-up window

    Corrections happen after full healing only. The touch-up fee is quoted at the review, based on what your skin actually retained.

  5. Months 12-18

    Refresh advice

    Brows and lips fade first; eyeliner usually holds longer. Sunscreen and acid exfoliants shorten the life of any pigment.

Fading, pigment migration, allergic reaction, infection and scarring are all possible. A patch test is offered before every first procedure, and medical questions belong with a qualified doctor.

06

Before you book

Plain answers on risks, patch tests, age policy and holding a slot at the Kyiv studio.

Do I need a patch test?

Yes. A pigment sample is applied to your inner forearm at least 48 hours before any procedure, and the result goes into your record. If the skin reacts, we do not proceed.

What risks should I know first?

Redness and swelling usually settle in 24 to 72 hours. Colour fades and shifts over 12 to 18 months and needs a touch-up at 4 to 8 weeks. Less common: allergic reaction, infection, scarring, pigment migration.

Any skin condition on the brow or lip area should be checked with a doctor before you book. Our role stays cosmetic and informational.

Is there an age limit?

Strictly 18+. Photo ID is checked at the door and no parental consent changes this. Read the age policy.

Pregnant, breastfeeding or on medication?

We postpone. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, isotretinoin in the last six months, blood thinners, chemotherapy and active skin infections all rule out pigment that day. Bring your current medication list to the consultation.

Is the consultation the same as the procedure?

No. The paid 45-minute consultation is cosmetic and informational, with no needle. You leave with a style direction, pigment notes and a written aftercare plan, then decide later whether to book.

How do I book, and can I move my slot?

Use the booking form or call the studio. Reschedule at least 24 hours ahead so the slot can pass to someone else. Fees sit in the aftercare and pricing block.

What if I dislike the healed result?

Exact colour cannot be guaranteed, since undertone and skin type decide the final result. We correct inside the touch-up window and explain options honestly. If you want a match to a photo that is not realistic, we say so before you pay.

Still undecided? Send your question to the studio.
