SKIN Xtreme Lash - Eyelash Extensions
Skin Medispa is offering a revolutionary way to achieve beautiful, full lashes that look natural. Xtreme Lash eyelash extensions are strands of synthetic lashes that can be applied to your own lashes. Each extension is applied to an individual natural lash, avoiding the look of clumpy, false lashes.
The Application
Prior to beginning the application process, the medical aesthetician will have a brief consultation with you regarding the look you wish to achieve. The shape of your eyes as well as other facial features will be taken into consideration prior to selecting the appropriate length, thickness, and curvature of the lashes.
The application takes approximately 2 hours to complete depending on the number of lashes required to meet your aesthetic goal. During the application process, you will be reclined comfortably with your eyes closed. Contact lenses should not be worn during the application process and you will be asked to not curl your lashes or wear any mascara. Both your eyelids and lashes must be completely clean and dry during the procedure.
Each extension is placed at a slight distance from your eyelid so that the material is not touching your skin or sticking to one another. The adhesive used for this application is both safe and long lasting. Its primary ingredient is the same ingredient found in the bonding agent used to close wounds without the use of sutures.
Following the application, you will be instructed to refrain from activities resulting in the eyelashes getting wet for 48 hours. This is in order for the adhesive to fully cure.
Activities that should be avoided during this time include:
- Showering
- Insertion and removal of contact lenses
- Steam baths and saunas
- Tanning
- Applying heavy creams or serums
- Applying eye cosmetics
Scheduled Refills
Should you wish to maintain the look achieved by your new lashes, a refill can be scheduled every 2-4 weeks. Refills are required due to the eyelash growth cycle. Most individuals lose a few lashes daily, but the loss often goes unnoticed as a result of another eyelash replacing it almost immediately. The extension will remain on your eyelash until the eyelash reaches maturity and falls out. Without scheduled refills, your lash extensions will gradually dissipate over a period of up to 4- 6 weeks.
Caring for your Lashes
Avoid using any oil based or waterproof products on or around your eyelash extensions. These products dissolve the adhesive bond and will shorten the life length of your extensions. Water-based or gel-based products are a safe alternative. You should always be gentle when removing eye makeup, being careful not to excessive rub or pick at your eyelashes.
In order to enhance and fortify your eyelash extensions, we recommend using the following Xtreme Lash Products, available at SKIN Medispa.
Xtreme Length Mascara™
Your lash extensions will provide you with so much volume and length that you may feel mascara to be unnecessary. If you do wish to achieve an every more dramatic look, Xtreme Length Mascara can be applied. Working to thicken and lengthen your lashes, this mascara is specifically formulated for use on both eyelash extensions as well as natural lashes. Xtreme Length Mascara is even gentle enough for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
Xtreme Protective Coating™
You can help extend the life of your lash extensions by using Xtreme Protective Coating. Simply apply once or twice each week to continually seal the area where your extension and your lash meet. The protective layer it forms helps safe guard your lashes from oil, dust, and debris. Xtreme Protective Coating also works to hold curled lashes in place while adding a subtle sheen!
Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover and Facial Cleanser™
Specially formulated for use on both eyelash extensions and natural lashes, Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover and Facial Cleanser™ gentle cleanses and moisturizes the skin while removing the day’s makeup and impurities.
Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover and Facial Cleanser is ideal for all skin types. |
