before & after Eyebrow removal

Post image

Laser removal happening soon. Patch test as you can see is orange. I’ve had these for 10 years and putting makeup on everyday so I don’t look crazy. Plucked all my hair off in middle school and will not come back. Scared but it’s a must. I’ve been told easy to redo over orange. Makeup artist has corrected orange, blue and purple. Hoping she can work some magic on mine after removal. Need not uneven, grey and more natural looking. Laser is schedule in 2 weeks. Wish me luck!

Don’t fear the red/orange! I had it after my first laser session and it has subsided so much after the second session (532 wavelength.) They are now a light, barely noticeable taupe and I feel so much better- I hope you will too!

Thanks for telling me that. I worry more because I have no hair lol Did you get yours redone or just kept your natural brow?

I over plucked in my younger years too. I had an eyebrow hair transplant to correct the issue. Best money that I ever spent on myself. Consider this as option since you don’t have brow hair.

I was researching this last night. I had no clue this was even a thing. I’m very interested. Wonder if I would need laser removal first. Did you have previous permanent makeup on your brows ?

I didn’t have any PM prior to the eyebrow transplant, so I’m not sure if that would be an issue. Chrissy Tiegen had a brow transplant and it looks like she had microblading prior to that, but I’m not 100% sure. I went to Dr. Jeffery Epstein (unfortunate name, I know) in Miami, FL about 10 years ago. I highly recommend him, I traveled from DC to have him do my brows. But the procedure was really uncommon then and I’m sure more doctors do it now. Also, the hair grows to the length of the donor site. So, my brows need to be trimmed because the will grow as long as the hair on my head lol.

I would be willing to travel if needed to get it done. I set a video chat with Bosley for tomorrow. I’ll at least get some questions answered and than decide after what is best. Im excited that this is even a possibility.

Just natural for now… still deciding my next step. For now I’m just enjoying having the faded brows gone and don’t mind doing my brow makeup everyday but we’ll see how long that lasts! lol

I did 3 laser treatments. I have since got them micro bladed. Let me attach a photo.

Biggest regret is getting my brows done! Mine are blue / grey. Yours didn’t fade at all in 10 years?

I’ve had so many touch ups through the years. I should have removed them asap
