What Are Nano Brows?
Nano Brows is an advanced permanent makeup technique that uses a digital machine and an ultra-fine needle to create realistic hair-like strokes within the brows. Unlike traditional microblading, Nano Brows offers greater precision and is often gentler on the skin.
The result is beautifully shaped eyebrows that closely resemble natural brow hairs while providing long-lasting definition and fullness.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Nano Brows?
Nano Brows suits most skin types, but not everyone. These are the conditions we check in the consultation, before any pigment is opened.
Nano Brows is for you if
- Your brows are sparse, thin, or were over-plucked in the past
- You want individual hair strokes rather than a shaded, makeup-like finish
- You have sensitive skin: the nano needle causes less trauma than a microblade
- You want a defined shape you do not have to draw every morning
- You can keep the area dry and product-free for the first 7 to 10 days
Nano Brows is not for you if
- You are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, or currently using isotretinoin. This is refused at both studios, with no exception
- You take blood thinners, have an autoimmune condition, or a history of keloid scarring. These need written clearance from your doctor first
- You have very oily skin: strokes blur faster, and Powder Brows holds better
- You want the fullest, most makeup-like brow. That is Nano Combo, not Nano Brows

How the Nano Brows Procedure Works
Every Nano Brows appointment begins with a personalized consultation. We carefully evaluate your facial structure and discuss your desired outcome before designing the ideal brow shape.
The procedure generally includes:
- Consultation and brow mapping
- Selection of pigment color
- Application of topical numbing cream
- Creation of realistic hair strokes using advanced nano technology
- Review and refinement of the final result
Most appointments take approximately 2 to 3 hours from start to finish.
Nano Brows Healing Process
Healing is not a straight line: the colour looks darkest before it looks right. Knowing the order stops people from panicking in week one.
| When | What you see |
|---|---|
| Right after | Slight redness around the strokes |
| First few days | The brows look darker and sharper than the final result |
| During healing | Mild flaking over the treated area |
| Following weeks | Colour softens gradually to its true tone |
| 4 to 6 weeks | Fully healed. This is the result you judge |
| 6 to 8 weeks | Perfecting session, already included in the $650 |
Aftercare decides how much pigment stays. The full routine is on the aftercare page.
What Does Nano Brows Cost?
Nano Brows costs $650 at both the Wilmington, MA and Salem, NH studios. That price already includes the perfecting session scheduled 6 to 8 weeks later, so there is no second invoice to finish the work.
| What you pay for | When it happens | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Consultation | Before booking, in English or Portuguese | $50, credited |
| Nano Brows, first session | Day of the appointment, 2 to 3 hours | $650 |
| Second session | 6 to 8 weeks later, once healing finishes | Included |
| Yearly Touch-Up | About 12 months later, to refresh colour | From $300 |
The second session is not the same appointment as the Yearly Touch-Up: the second session corrects patchy or light spots and is already paid for, the Yearly Touch-Up refreshes colour a year later and is billed separately. Payment can be split into 4 interest-free instalments with Cherry. see the options. Full list on the price page.
How Long Do Nano Brows Last?
Nano Brows can last between 1 and 3 years depending on several factors, including:
- Skin type
- Lifestyle
- Sun exposure
- Skincare products
- Individual pigment retention
Periodic touch-ups are recommended to maintain optimal color and definition. See our yearly touch-up options.
Nano Brows or Another Brow Technique?
Five brow techniques are performed at both studios. They are not interchangeable: the tool, the finish and how long they hold are different. This is the comparison we would make with you in the consultation.
| Technique | Tool | Finish | Holds | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nano Brows | Ultra-fine needle, digital machine | Individual hair strokes, most natural | 1 to 3 years | $650 |
| Nano Combo | Nano needle plus shading | Strokes and shading, fullest | 1 to 3 years | $600 |
| Microblading | Handheld blade, by hand | Hair strokes, slightly crisper | 12 to 24 months | $550 |
| Powder Brows | Digital machine, shading | Soft powdered, makeup-like | 1 to 3 years | $550 |
If you are not sure which one fits your skin, book the consultation: the technique is decided with you, after Adriana looks at your skin type and your brow hair. Prices shown are the current published prices for both studios.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most clients experience minimal discomfort thanks to the use of topical numbing agents throughout the procedure.
Nano Brows is often preferred because it creates highly realistic hair strokes while causing less trauma to the skin.
Most clients heal within 4 to 8 weeks, although initial healing occurs much sooner.
It can be, with a caveat: on very oily skin hair strokes blur faster, so Powder Brows usually holds better. Your artist confirms which technique suits your skin at the consultation.
Absolutely. Our goal is to create soft, realistic hair strokes that blend seamlessly with your natural brow hair.
Nano Brows costs $650 at both studios, and that price already includes the perfecting session scheduled 6 to 8 weeks after the appointment. The consultation, the mapping and the topical numbing are part of it as well. A yearly touch-up, from $300, is a separate visit about 12 months later. Every price is published on the price list.
Yes. Cherry offers 4 interest-free payments, or a longer plan of up to 24 months with interest. Checking your options takes about a minute and uses a soft credit check, so it does not affect your credit score. Cherry is an independent financing provider: it sets approval and rates, not the studio. See how the payment plan works.
The perfecting session exists for exactly that. It is scheduled 6 to 8 weeks after the first appointment, once the skin has healed, and it is included in the original price at no extra charge. Pigment settles differently on different skin, so the second pass is part of the procedure rather than a repair you pay for.
Most clients book a colour refresh every 12 to 24 months; how long the pigment itself lasts depends on the technique and your skin (each service page gives its own range). After that, a yearly touch-up refreshes the colour from $300, priced by how much pigment is left rather than at a flat rate. That is a separate visit from the perfecting session, which is included in the original price and happens in the first weeks.
Yes. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, being under 18, and current isotretinoin use are refused at both studios, with no exception. Blood thinners, autoimmune conditions and a history of keloid scarring need clearance from your doctor first. The full list is published in the contraindications guide before you book, not after.

This was my first time doing a nanobrow. I did a lot of research on where to go and I saw the reviews that Adriana’s permanent makeup caught so I felt comfortable going there. The office was very pretty and clean. Adriana was absolutely amazing! She was meticulous in drawing out my brows and measuring them before the procedure. The results are amazing and I am so happy with them. I’ve already gotten multiple compliments. I would absolutely recommend going to Adriana’s Permanent Makeup in Wilmington, MA or Salem, NH.

What Should You Check Before Booking Permanent Makeup Anywhere?
Open the checklist
Six things are worth verifying with any permanent makeup artist before you book: their licence number, who trained them, what the price includes, whether a price is published at all, what they refuse to do, and whether the technique actually suits your skin.
| What to check | What to ask any artist | The answer here |
|---|---|---|
| Practitioner licence | Ask for the licence number and check it yourself with the state or the town, instead of taking a badge on a website at face value. | New Hampshire Body Artist licence 4283, valid through 18 July 2028 and searchable at the state’s own public lookup. Town of Salem BODA-10 and BODE-4. Body Art Practitioner licence from the Town of Wilmington Board of Health. |
| Who trained them | Ask who certified the artist, and whether that credential can be checked with the body that issued it. | AAM Diamond Certified Trainer, the American Academy of Micropigmentation’s highest level of instructor recognition. |
| What the price includes | Ask whether the perfecting session is included or billed later. This is where quoted prices most often stop matching the final bill. | The perfecting session, 6 to 8 weeks after the appointment, is included in every original price. The yearly touch-up, from $300, is a separate visit about 12 months later. |
| Whether the price is published at all | The consultation costs $50, credited toward the service. A studio that will not name a range before seeing you is not comparable to one that will. | All 13 services are published with their prices, from $250 to $850, on the price list. |
| When they say no | Ask what would make them refuse to perform the procedure. An artist who never refuses is a warning sign. | Pregnancy, breastfeeding, under 18 and isotretinoin are refused at both studios with no exception. The full list is in the contraindications guide, published before you book rather than after. |
| Whether the technique fits you | Ask which technique suits your skin type, and what they would recommend if this one does not. | Nano strokes are machine-drawn and suit most skin types, which is why they cost more than microblading here ($650 against $550). This is settled at the consultation, in English or Portuguese. |
