        • Areola reconstruction

          04 of 05

          Areola reconstruction

            Offered free of charge to women affected by breast cancer, this dermopigmentation procedure aims to restore the natural appearance of the areolas after a mastectomy. Josée Gagnon combines medical technique and artistic sensitivity to help women regain confidence, femininity and dignity.

          • Microblading / Nanoblading

            05 of 05

            Microblading / Nanoblading

              Microblading is a manual pigmentation technique that draws ultra-fine hairs to structure the brows naturally. Ideal for filling in sparse areas or redefining the line, it is meant for people who already have a good base of brow. Combined with nanoblading — used for more precision on dark or hairless skin — the result is harmonious, natural and long-lasting.

            • A personalized assessment before every session

              Before every procedure, a complete assessment defines the ideal shape, the right pigments and the technique suited to each face.

            • A balance of art and technical precision

              Every line combines the rigour of a medical approach with artistic sensitivity, ensuring a result that is both harmonious and lasting.

            • Pigments renewed regularly

              Natural pigments renewed every 4 to 6 months to guarantee freshness, performance and colour stability over time.

            • Aftercare advice for an optimal result

              Care does not stop after the session. Clear recommendations ensure optimal healing and prolong the life of the makeup.

            Information

            Questions & Answers

            Here are the answers to the most frequent questions, to help you understand our services better and make an informed choice.

            Is there any risk in getting permanent makeup?

            The danger is practically nonexistent. The tools used are single-use or sterilized. In addition, a health questionnaire is completed to make sure you are eligible to receive permanent makeup.

            Can vitiligo be treated?

            Beyond vitiligo, you can have scars camouflaged, baldness camouflaged, hairlines corrected and alopecia treated — as well as asymmetry corrected and breast reconstruction (reproduction of the areolas).

            What happens during a permanent makeup session?

            First, the technician talks with you to understand your needs and determine the expected result, taking your face, its shape and your complexion into account. A topical anaesthetic is then applied to the area to make the session more comfortable. The length of the treatment varies with the area treated, but averages 1 hour.

            How long before I can get back to my activities?

            You can get back to your activities the same day. Do keep appearances in mind, though: in some cases the makeup looks darker at first, which fades within a few days.

            Do I need to prepare my skin before the treatment?

            No, all of that is done at the salon. After the session, however, you will need to apply vitamin E to the treated area for at least a week to help it heal. Also avoid makeup for a few days. You can go back to your beauty routine afterwards.

            Is permanent makeup painful?

            Although slight discomfort may be felt, the anaesthetic applied before the treatment makes the procedure entirely bearable.

            Could I have an allergic reaction after the session?

            As with any procedure, we cannot guarantee there will be no reaction. Reported cases are very rare, however, since when in doubt an allergy test is done beforehand.

            Are there contraindications to permanent makeup?

            Severe medical conditions, anticoagulant medication, or drinking just before the treatment. In addition, the pool is off limits for a few days after the session to avoid any source of bacteria. Laser treatments are to be avoided on areas treated with permanent makeup.

            Can I choose my colour?

            Of course. The technician will show you the full range of colours; the choice is almost unlimited. Rest assured: if you are unsure, the technician will be happy to advise you. A test is always done before the final procedure.

            How long does permanent makeup last?

            The life of your makeup depends on several factors: light, the colour chosen and above all your skin's ability to eliminate the pigments. As these are of plant and mineral origin, they are known for their aesthetic qualities. Generally, the makeup stays in place for several years. A colour touch-up is strongly recommended after a few years.

            Is permanent makeup the same procedure as a tattoo?

            Although very similar, permanent makeup uses a slightly different technique: the pigments, the needle gauge and the depth of implantation. The lifespan is different as well.

            How much does a permanent makeup session cost?

            The consultation is free and lasts about 20 minutes. Then, if you decide to proceed, it costs $500 on average, depending on the area treated. The consultation and the treatment can be done in a single session. Accepted payment methods: cash, Visa, MasterCard. The cost depends on several factors: the distance travelled by our technician, the client's skin type and the treatment chosen. Permanent makeup lasts about 5 to 15 years. Contact us for more details.

            Is there any risk in getting permanent makeup?

            There is practically no risk, because every instrument our technicians use is single-use or sterilized. After going through the health form you will have duly completed, they make sure you are a candidate to receive these treatments safely.

            What factors influence how long permanent makeup lasts?

            Light, the colour of the pigment chosen at the start, and your body's ability to eliminate the pigments.

            What are the pigments made of?

            They are of plant and mineral origin.

            What is the difference between permanent makeup and a tattoo?

            The pigments, the technique, the needle gauge, the depth at which the pigments are implanted, and the lifespan.

            Is the treatment painful?

            No: most clients tell us they felt practically no pain. A topical anaesthetic is applied.

            What colour choices are there?

            The choice of colour is unlimited and made according to your needs.

            Are laser treatments harmful to permanent makeup?

            If your laser treatments are in professional hands, they will know how to guide you — because yes, most lasers must not be used on an area treated with permanent makeup.
