Trust the Process, Beautiful Results Are on the Way
The healing phase is where the magic truly happens. In the first few days after your treatment, your brows or lips may appear bold, dark, or more defined than expected — but this is only temporary.
As your skin naturally heals, the color will soften and settle into a beautifully natural finish that enhances your features without overpowering them.
At The Koa Studio, we believe in showing the real process — not just the final result.
Below you’ll see examples of what healing truly looks like, so you can know what to expect.

01
Brows Beforehand
Goals to address: Scar in front of brow + thinning through middle to tail.
02
Freshly Done
Brows right after procedure. Can look bolder, darker and warm initially. This phase lasts a few days. 20-30% fade will occur as the brows heal.


03
Healed + Perfecting Session
Healed at 6-8 weeks. Perfecting session included in upfront cost to touch up anything that is needed. Pigment only added in areas that it is needed.
04
1+ Year Healed
Long term healed results. Clients come in for a touch up when needed, ideally when the pigment is 50-60%+ faded to maintain natural results.


01
Lips Beforehand
Goals to address: Thin upper lip, loss of color around vermillion border. Soft nude/pink color.
02
Freshly Done
Lips will present bold the first couple of days until they shed. Can expect mild chapped lips through first week. Swelling occurs only right after appointment. Lips will soften and lighten over 4-6 weeks.


03
Healed + Perfecting Session
Healed at 8 weeks. Perfecting session included in upfront cost to touch up anything that is needed.
04
1+ Year Healed
