Eye Enhancements

Wake up with makeup

The eyes are said to be ‘the windows to the soul’ and are the most focal feature upon the face. Permanent cosmetic eye enhancements are a convenient and maintenance-free alternative to conventional makeup. This treatment emphasises and defines the eyes creating the illusion of larger, brighter, more prominent and youthful eyes, as well as thicker eyelashes from the moment upon waking, every morning.

A variety of eyeliner styles can be created for the eyes. For example, a soft, natural Eyelash Enhancement, the subtlest of the liners, giving the illusion of much fuller eyelashes. There are also varying eyeliner thicknesses and lengths, such as a Fine Eyeliner, a Thick Eyeliner and a Super Thick Eyeliner, of which a Latino flick can be added for a more feline, dramatic look. Teamed with an selection of suitable eyeliner colour options, it is possible to create a perfectly applied, beautiful, long lasting look for the eyes.

Clinique Allure is committed to creating lasting, natural eye enhancements that meet the requirements and desires of clients.

Consultation

Prior to treatments a comprehensive consultation will take place which includes the completion of a medical history assessment questionnaire, essential for determining treatment suitability, along with product patch testing. A thorough discussion of the client’s requirements and expectations will be established in order to determine the best treatment solution.

During the consultation the Eye Enhancement template design and pigment colours will be determined with equal input from both the client and practitioner. Taking into careful consideration placement, shape, size and colouring. Only when the client is completely satisfied and confident with these choices, will the treatment commence.

Treatment Plan

The treatment is a 3-part process that is typically completed within 2 appointment sessions 4 – 6 weeks apart. The first appointment will consist of the consultation and the treatment procedure. The second appointment will be repeat perfecting session of the initial treatment procedure. The full treatment requires these 2 treatment sessions in order to carefully layer the pigments into the skin so as to achieve maximum retention of colour and shape.

A work of art cannot be rushed! Treatment durations vary depending upon how advanced or detailed the required results are. The priority is to achieve the best possible result and to do this, it is necessary to allow sufficient time to complete the procedure. Please allow up to 2 – 4 hours for your initial Eye Enhancement treatment appointment.

The initial treatment price is inclusive of these 2 treatment sessions. If required, any additional sessions are charged separately, per session.

Following Treatment

Normal activities may be resumed immediately following the procedure. There will be slight tenderness, swelling and redness to the treated area which will generally subside within 24 hours.

The intensity of the colour will be significantly darker immediately following the procedure. This will reduce and soften during the healing process to deliver a more subtle, natural look.

The healing duration will take approximately 5 – 10 days, during which some fine crusting will occur which will naturally flake away during the healing period. It is crucial to the final results of the cosmetic enhancement, that this crusting is not touched or removed prematurely whilst healing, and that the additional aftercare guidelines are adhered to for sufficient healing and to avoid any post treatment complications.

Full aftercare instructions will be provided both verbally and in hard copy following the procedure, together with an aftercare healing balm.

The longevity of permanent make-up is variable from person to person based upon factors such as skin type, age and general lifestyle. It is recommended that cosmetic enhancements be periodically maintained in the form of a ‘colour-boost’ re-touch to keep them looking fresh and at their optimum shape and colour. Generally, colour-boost sessions are recommended for every 12 – 18 months following the initial procedure.
