Eyebrow Micropigmentation: The Truth About the Most Common Fears

Micropigmentation (PMU) is the treatment we get the most questions about — and the most fears. Lesea Curtoglo, founder of MY MARAFET STUDIO and a permanent makeup master whose loyal clients have been with her for over 5 years, hears them every day. Here are the honest answers.

“Does it hurt?”

We work with a topical numbing cream. Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort rather than pain — many even doze off during the 2.5-hour procedure.

“Will I be left with black, tattooed eyebrows?”

No. The modern powder brows technique uses mineral pigments that fade naturally within 1–2 years, in shades chosen precisely for your skin and hair. The effect is that of softly made-up brows, not a tattoo.

“What if I don’t like it?”

The shape is drawn and approved TOGETHER before any pigment is applied. Nothing happens without your OK, and the touch-up at 4–8 weeks (1,800 lei) refines the result.

“I have an ugly old tattoo — can it be fixed?”

Yes — we remove it with a pigment remover (from 1,200 lei) and, once the skin has healed, create fresh micropigmentation.

Eyebrow micropigmentation at the studio starts at 2,800 lei, at 6 Constantin Negruzzi Blvd, Chisinau. See all PMU treatments or book your appointment with Lesea.
