My brows have always been "off" and not quite symmetrical. I have patches where hair hasn't grown in and it's always bothered me. So, I've been researching permanent eyebrow tattooing and have been stalking Heidi Carney's work for about 2 years. Then I realized she does her work at Dr. Connors office, where I've had work done in the past and knew she'd be the best person to do this.

She uses a micro blading technique and spends plenty of time discussing the process from the beginning to 8 weeks out. I've never had a tattoo of any type so this was great.

My mom was so impressed by her work, she flew in to Atlanta to have hers done too!

She numbed me, pain is about 4-5/10. It was quick though. About 20 min.

Will update post later today!

I really look forward to seeing your after photos, thanks for sharing your journey! What’s the best piece of advice you would give to someone considering this procedure?

Yeah! Where are the "after" pictures? , it will be nice if you share those with us, I'm considering that technique for my already tattooed eyebrows.

Best advice would be so your homework! This is permanent makeup on your face. Find someone and a practice you're comfortable with and have multiple satisfied patients and understand the look you're wanting to acheieve. Also, follow their instructions! I didn't drink alcohol or have ibprofen 24 hours before or after and didn't have much swelling. I've stayed out of the sun and haven't worked out heavily since then to avoid sweating.

I love them!

Go to someone with proven results! This is your face we are talking about! I wouldn't trust anyone other than Heidi.

I'm really happy for you. I'm eager to see your updates here and would love to know your overall opinion of the mircroblade look after it's all healed. I've been thinking about this, but as a guy, I'm bit more skeptical because I can't really get away with it. It's just not as socially acceptable for me. So I'm really curious as to how natural they look.

Mine look completely natural. Literally my best friend didn't even know. After I told her (we were swimming at the beach) she thought I was using some new baller waterproof eyebrow pencil .

Very pleased. Not much "itching" as I had heard was common afterwards. I noticed major flaking today which kind of freaked me out at first but my brows are still there :)

There's a small spot on my right side that she didn't cover because she wanted to wait and see how my brows grew out a bit more. I'll have it touched up at my follow up appointment in 4 weeks if it's noticeable.

I'm also posting a before and after of my mothers results with Heidi. Simply amazing.

Wow your results are remarkable! Now I want to get mine done. I see so many bad eyebrows but your Dr made yours look natural.

Heidi is the best. Make sure you go to someone with a proven track record! She matched my color very carefully and was extremely diligent.
