Microblading is a semi-permanent eyebrow enhancement technique that uses a manual tool with ultra-fine needles to draw hair-like strokes on the skin. The practitioner deposits pigment into the upper dermis layer, mimicking natural eyebrow hairs. At AMORJ in Gangnam, Seoul, we use our proprietary Soft Emboss technique to create extremely natural-looking strokes that blend perfectly with your existing brows. The procedure takes 2 hours including consultation and numbing time, and lasts an average of 1-2 years depending on skin type and aftercare.

Microblading in Seoul typically lasts 1-2 years depending on several factors including skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare routine. Oily skin tends to fade faster (6-12 months), while normal to dry skin retains color longer (1-3 years). AMORJ uses premium Korean + American pigments that prevent the blue or red discoloration commonly seen with low-quality pigments. Most clients book a touch-up within 2-6 months to perfect their results, then enjoy maintenance-free brows for years. Seoul's climate and skincare culture make proper aftercare essential for longevity.

Seoul, especially Gangnam, is recognized as a global hub for Korean microblading techniques and beauty innovation. Korean artists like those at AMORJ have perfected ultra-natural microblading techniques over more than a decade, serving celebrity clients and international visitors. You'll benefit from cutting-edge technology unavailable elsewhere, competitive pricing ($239 vs $500-800 in Western countries), and the ability to combine with a Seoul trip. AMORJ's Soft Emboss technique is specially designed for optimal one-session results, perfect for tourists who cannot return for touch-ups.

The Soft Emboss technique is AMORJ's proprietary microblading method developed by renowned makeup artists in Seoul over more than a decade. Unlike traditional microblading that can appear rough or fade to unnatural colors, Soft Emboss creates ultra-fine, feathery strokes that perfectly mimic actual hair growth patterns. This technique involves precise analysis of brow angle, natural hair flow, skin texture, and facial symmetry. Premium needles and Korean pigments ensure strokes stay crisp without bleeding or turning blue/red. This technique achieves optimal results in one session, making it ideal for international clients.

The most suitable technique depends on the current condition of your eyebrows, your skin type, your preferred style, and whether you will be able to return for a touch-up.

During your consultation, we will assess your natural eyebrows and discuss the look you would like to achieve before recommending the most appropriate technique.

If you have oily skin or are unlikely to be able to return for a touch-up, we may recommend Combo Brows or Shadow Brows, as these techniques generally offer better color retention.

Our microblading technique creates individual hair-like strokes by hand so that they blend naturally with your existing eyebrow hairs.

However, we often add a small amount of shading to improve color retention, especially for clients who may not be able to return for a touch-up.

If you are specifically looking for Nano Brows consisting entirely of hair strokes with no shading, we recommend contacting a studio that specializes in that particular technique.

Yes. It is possible to have only one session without returning for a touch-up.

However, because semi-permanent makeup heals differently depending on your skin type and individual healing process, the final color and shape may vary. A touch-up is normally recommended to fill in areas where the pigment has faded unevenly, refine the shape, and improve the overall result.

For international clients who may not be able to return for a touch-up, choosing a technique and design with better retention from the first session is especially important.

We will assess your skin type and the condition of your natural eyebrows and recommend an approach designed to achieve the most natural and stable result possible from a single session.

In general, Combo Brows or Shadow Brows, which include some shading, tend to retain pigment better than microblading alone. For this reason, these techniques are often recommended for clients who cannot return for a touch-up.

It may be possible to perform a new treatment even if pigment from a previous eyebrow procedure is still visible.

However, we first need to check the color, saturation, shape, and condition of the existing pigment. Please send us a clear photo of your eyebrows without makeup before making your appointment.

If you have existing permanent makeup from another studio, the procedure will be considered a new treatment, not a touch-up of work performed at our studio. Therefore, the regular treatment price will apply rather than the touch-up price.

We do not currently offer package discounts or additional discounts when combining two or more treatments.

Each treatment is booked and charged individually at its regular price.

Thank you for your understanding. We remain committed to providing high-quality service and results that you will be happy with.

Yes. Group reservations for three or more people are available.

However, our studio is operated by two artists, so we can perform treatments for a maximum of two clients at the same time.

For groups of three or more, appointments will therefore be arranged in separate time slots.

For example, if three people are receiving eyebrow treatments, two clients may begin at 11:00 AM, while the third client begins at 12:00 PM.

Each treatment takes approximately 2 hours, and for a group of three people, the total visit will usually take approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes.

Yes. We accept credit and debit cards issued outside Korea.

However, depending on your card issuer and card type, foreign transaction fees or currency conversion rates may apply.

For information regarding specific fees or exchange rates, please check directly with your card issuer.

This depends on the type of dermatological or aesthetic treatment you receive and the area being treated.

If you have received Botox or fillers around the forehead, glabella, eyebrows, or bridge of the nose, we generally recommend waiting approximately 2 weeks before having eyebrow permanent makeup. This allows the treatment results and treated areas to settle.

Treatments such as lifting procedures, lasers, acne treatments, and skin boosters may not necessarily interfere with eyebrow permanent makeup, depending on the treatment and the area involved.

However, if you are planning to receive any dermatological or aesthetic treatment, we recommend informing your clinic in advance that you are also planning eyebrow permanent makeup and asking whether there are any restrictions or recommended waiting periods.

If you have undergone laser removal of previous eyebrow permanent makeup, we recommend waiting at least 4 weeks before receiving a new eyebrow permanent makeup treatment.

If you have recently had any facial procedure, treatment, or surgery, please let us know the type of treatment and the date it was performed. We can then advise you whether it is appropriate to schedule your eyebrow appointment.

Please contact us as soon as possible.

If another appointment time is available, we will do our best to reschedule your booking.

However, if you arrive more than 20 minutes late on the day of your appointment, we may not be able to perform the treatment because it could affect the appointments scheduled after yours.

Whenever possible, please arrive on time for your scheduled appointment.

Light face washing and showering are possible on the day of your treatment. However, you should avoid rubbing the eyebrow area or allowing strong water pressure to hit the treated area directly.

For approximately one week after your treatment, please avoid activities that cause excessive sweating or prolonged exposure to heat and moisture, including saunas, Korean jjimjilbangs, swimming pools, and intense exercise.

Following the aftercare instructions provided by your artist is important to allow the treated area to heal properly and achieve the best possible pigment retention.
