Permanent Makeup Removal Before Nano Brows or Avalon Brows: Why It Is Essential

If you have old permanent makeup and are considering Nano Brows or Avalon brows , removal or lightening of previous pigment is often the most important first step. This ensures your new brows heal beautifully, with the correct colour, shape, and definition.

Many clients are unaware that working over old permanent makeup can compromise results. Professional removal creates the ideal foundation for modern, natural-looking brows.

When previous permanent makeup on the eyebrows is already highly saturated, adding more pigment over the existing work is not recommended. The skin in this area has reached a high level of colour density, and introducing additional pigment can oversaturate the tissue.

As a result, the healed outcome may not appear fresh, soft, or natural. Instead, it can look heavy, uneven, or dull. Furthermore, the longevity of the new application is often reduced because the skin cannot properly retain additional pigment in an already saturated area. This means the enhancement may fade irregularly and quickly lose its intended appearance.

For these reasons, performing a new brow treatment over very saturated permanent makeup can cause the brows to look older much sooner, rather than achieving a refreshed and long-lasting result.

In such cases, alternative approaches such as, gradual lightening, or removal are usually recommended to achieve the best possible outcome.
