Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Full Eyeliner.

Full Eyeliner commonly lasts one to three years depending on skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, and pigment choice. Touch-up sessions are recommended every 12–24 months to maintain intensity and shape. Individual results vary and will be discussed during consultation.

Most clients feel mild discomfort similar to tattooing; topical numbing is applied to reduce pain. Procedure time typically takes under two hours. Expect minor redness, swelling, and sensitivity for 24–72 hours; normal activities can usually resume quickly with proper aftercare.

Ideal candidates want consistent, bold liner and are in good general health. Contraindications include active eye infections, recent eye surgery, pregnancy, and some autoimmune conditions. A medical review at Elva Medical Aesthetics will determine your suitability and safe timing.

Color selection considers skin tone, natural lash and eye color, and desired intensity. During consultation we test pigment shades, discuss maintenance and fade patterns, and choose medical-grade pigments to achieve a natural, flattering, long-lasting result.

Aftercare includes keeping the area clean, avoiding makeup, swimming, saunas, and heavy sweating for 7–14 days. Apply recommended ointments and avoid sun exposure and lash treatments until healed. A follow-up touch-up is scheduled after healing to perfect the result.

Removal or lightening options include laser, saline, or specialized tattoo removal techniques, which may require multiple sessions and depend on pigment depth and skin type. A consultation at Elva Medical Aesthetics will assess options, timeline, and realistic expectations.
