Permanent Brows
Beautifully defined brows, built to last.
Powder Brows and Combination Brows — semi-permanent brow treatments designed to enhance your natural shape, add definition, and reduce your daily makeup routine.
A £30 consultation and patch test is required before all permanent brow treatments. This fee is fully redeemable against your treatment cost.
What are Permanent Brows?
Permanent brow treatments use specialist pigment and fine needlework techniques to create the appearance of fuller, more defined brows. At The PMU Clinic, we offer two techniques — Powder Brows and Combination Brows — both tailored to your individual face shape, skin type, and aesthetic goals.
With over 8 years of experience in the permanent makeup sector, Zoe brings a meticulous, clinical approach to every brow treatment. Results are natural-looking, long-lasting, and designed to complement your features — never to overpower them.
All treatments begin with a £30 consultation and mandatory patch test, fully redeemable against your treatment cost. This appointment allows us to assess your skin, discuss your goals, and design a brow shape bespoke to you before any pigment is applied.
Treatments & Pricing
All treatments require a £30 consultation and patch test, fully redeemable against your treatment cost.
Powder Brows
Soft & DefinedPrice on consultation
Powder Brows use a stippling technique to deposit pigment in a soft, powdered finish — similar in appearance to brow powder or pomade. The result is a filled, defined brow with a gradient effect that is softer at the front and more defined towards the tail. Ideal for those who want a polished, makeup-like finish that lasts.
Suitability: Suitable for all skin types, including oily skin. Particularly well-suited to those who already fill in their brows daily and want a longer-lasting alternative.
Combination Brows
Natural & FullPrice on consultation
Combination Brows blend two techniques — fine hair strokes at the front of the brow to create a natural, feathered appearance, combined with a powder effect through the body and tail for depth and definition. The result is a fuller, textured brow that mimics the look of real brow hairs.
Suitability: Suitable for most skin types. Ideal for those who want a natural-looking result with added fullness and definition, or those with sparse or over-plucked brows.
How It Works
Consultation & Patch Test — £30
All clients begin with a £30 consultation, fully redeemable against treatment. We discuss your goals, assess your skin type, review your medical history, and perform a mandatory patch test. We also design your brow shape at this stage, so you can see and approve the proposed result before your treatment appointment.
Brow Design & Mapping
At your treatment appointment, we begin with a thorough brow mapping session — using precise measurements and your facial structure to create a symmetrical, balanced shape that suits your features. You approve the design before any pigment is applied.
Treatment
A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment to minimise discomfort. The treatment itself typically takes 2–3 hours. You may experience mild redness and tenderness for 24–48 hours afterwards, and the brows will appear darker initially before softening as they heal.
Healing, Aftercare & Top-Up
Full healing takes 4–6 weeks. We provide written aftercare instructions and schedule a top-up appointment at 6–8 weeks to assess retention and make any refinements. Annual colour boosts are recommended to maintain vibrancy as the pigment naturally fades over time.
