Eyebrow lamination involves securing the hair in an upward stroke pattern, then setting them into place with a gentle brow perming solution. This simple procedure is generally done in 1 hour and lasts 4-6 weeks.
Does eyebrow lamination cause damage?
Frequent perming of the brows can cause damage to your brows. We recommend waiting 6 weeks between appointments. Exposure to some perm solutions can also cause reactions to sensitive skin such as itching, redness, etc. Certain conditions or medications compromise the skin. In other words, while the perm solution may be safe, other steps in the lamination process make the service unsafe for some clients.
If you are new to Dérmica, your service provider will conduct a consultation through the use of an intake form. If you are a returning guest, please advise your service provider of any changes to your health or medications. This will help us ensure your service goes smoothly.

The best facial for anti aging can be found at Dérmica! Our facial menuoffers a variety of facials. Most of our facials include light extractions, a nourishing mask application, and Pressure-Point facial massage; All key players in the fight against aging.
How often should you have a facial?
We generally recommend booking every 4-6 weeks. However, this period depends on your age, skin type, and even work environment!
When we are young we tend to have oilier skin. This results in acne breakouts which we in turn try to cover up with cheap makeup. At least we were using cheap makeup back then!
Although our skin is tight and our pores are relatively small in our youth, years of this cycle make way for the changes we see as we age.
Environmental factors
There are certain environmental factors that will increase the rate at which your pores need a cleanup. Restaurant workers, particularly those in the kitchen, may see their skin become congested over time. This in part can be due to higher than normal temperatures. Those working outdoors during the summer may experience the same, due to similar reasons.
Do facials help with wrinkles?
Facials help with wrinkles to a certain degree: The exfoliation included in our facials will clear away your skin allowing products to be better absorbed. The pore extractions will clean your pores from within. The mask application will deliver anti-aging benefits through different key ingredients. The pressure-point facial massage will promote blood flow to your facial muscles.
However, for these effects to take place, facials must be a regular part of your routine. If facials have not been a part of your routine and you are looking to reverse some signs of aging, we recommend the ALISA photofacial.

Located on Whyte avenue in Edmonton, we offer brow lamination services in our full spa menu.
What does eyebrow lamination do?
To better understand this, think of the typical brow hair pattern. It grows upward at the beginning of the eyebrow, but then starts turning downward as we get closer to the arch. Once past the arch, the hair grows downward.
During your service, we achieve this by chemically straightening the brow hair and then neutralizing it in it’s new position.
How long does brow lamination last?
Depending on a few factors, your service could last up to 6 weeks. One factor to consider when estimating the life of your lamination is your brow hair density. Thicker brows are more likely to “fall” sooner. To clarify, by “falling” we mean the hair looses its new shape and returns to the original shape.
In addition, oily skin types may find the oil from their skin may cause the lamination to fall sooner. But don’t let this deter you from getting this service if you meet those two factors! The post-care instructions are simple to follow and should keep your lamination going strong all month long.
Plus, brow gel can help those thick and stubborn brows reach the full 6 weeks and possibly beyond.
Do brows go back to normal after brow lamination?
Yes, your brows will go back to normal. This is the main reason we don’t trim your brows during the lamination service. Instead of trimming, we teach you how to style your brows. That way, your brows won’t be awkwardly short when they fall.
