Microblading Levels

Microblading Before and After Pic
Microblading LEVEL II- Before and After

“My brows aren’t bad enough for microblading.” 🗯

Perhaps not… but have you considered what adding extra volume to your brows will do for your face?

👉the EYES 👁👁

Full brows will bring attention to your eyes.  Therefore, your ideal brow colour should compliment your natural hair and eye colour. Your technician will blend a custom colour to create the best possible colour match.

👉the FACE 🙂

Microblading helps correct asymmetry caused by minor differences between your left and right brow. Your technician will take facial measurements to ensure the most flattering brow shape to frame your face shape.


3 Microblading Levels

Dérmica offers 3 microblading levels to help you achieve your dream brows.

1. LEVEL I – up to 30% additional coverage.

If all you’re looking for is a little extra volume, a LEVEL I is all you need.  LEVEL I clients have an existing shape in their brows, no major correction is needed. In other words, just some strokes here and there.  LEVEL I Microblading is often opted for by clients that want to correct minor mistakes such as over plucking of the tail or arch.

2. LEVEL II- up to 60% additional coverage.

If you want to thicken the shape of your brows, you most likely need a LEVEL II.

LEVEL II Microblading requires your technician to create a new shape using your existing brow shape. Multiple corrections are made on a LEVEL II procedure. Often, strokes are added to the bottom AND top of your existing brow line as well as adding strokes to the tails for a finished look from beginning to end.

3. LEVEL III- up to 100% additional coverage.

Clients who require a LEVEL III procedure have very little to no brow shape. Using geometry to take in-depth measurements, the technician creates a brow shape to last you 2-3 years.

Is Brow Lamination for me?

is brow lamination for me?

A new service for brows.

Brow Lamination gives you that “fluffy” look for full, thicker brows. It is a simple procedure and is generally done in 1 hour.

Is brow lamination for me?

Well, that depends…What is your desired look?

Brow Lamination is suited for those looking to achieve the appearance of bold/ feathery brows. Think back to that luscious 80’s Brook Shields, Madonna, and Cindy Crawford brow.

We must also ask, do you have enough brow to achieve your desired look?

Unlike microblading, brow lamination works solely with your existing brow hair. In other words, the service will look more voluminous on full brows than on thinner, sparse brows.

While clients with plenty of hair on their brows make the ideal candidate to achieve the “look”, this spa service will increase the width of any brow resulting in thicker brows.

In addition, some hair textures respond better to the perm solution. For example, coarse and stubborn brows may not see maximum results until their second lamination process, spaced adequately apart.

For many people, this may be the solution they need.

How long does brow lamination last?

On average this service lasts 4-6 weeks. Observe the following tips to maximize the wear:

  • Do not wear brow makeup the day of your appointment.
  • do not wet your brows 48 hours post-service
  • brush brows after washing your face

How does brow lamination work?

How does brow lamination work?
Brow Lamination can last up to 6 weeks.

Its all the about science.

How does Brow Lamination work?

A perm solution is applied which breaks the disulphide bonds that hold together the brow hair’s keratin.

Once the bonds have been broken, we are able to change the state of the brow hair thereby straightening unruly brows and redirecting the hair to reshape the brows for a thicker, fuller look.

We then apply a setting solution which neutralizes the perm process and reforms the disulphide bonds in their new and improved shape. This is what makes your brow lamination last up to 6 weeks.
