About Lash Lift

Overview

A lash lift is a semi-permanent procedure designed to enhance the appearance of fuller, thicker eyelashes. This treatment elevates the natural lashes from the root, resulting in a lifted and lengthened effect.

By opting for a lash lift, individuals can avoid the inconvenience of clumpy mascara and the hassle of false eyelashes. Additionally, one can enjoy the benefit of waking each morning with naturally long and voluminous lashes.

Many individuals also choose to have their lashes tinted to a darker hue in order to further enhance the overall effect. This procedure may be likened to a perm, but specifically tailored for the eyelashes.

Advantages

Lash lifts come in various types, each offering different longevity for the results.

  • A keratin lash lift typically lasts for over six weeks, while a length-volume-lift (LVL) treatment may return lashes to their natural state in about six weeks.
  • The Yumi lash lift employs a keratin treatment, utilizing a silicone rod to lift lashes from base to tip, which takes around 45 to 60 minutes to complete.
  • In contrast, the LVL treatment curls and volumizes lashes using a lifting balm and tint, also taking about 45 minutes.
  • Many people opt to combine keratin treatments with LVL lifts for a more natural and wispy appearance.
What to Expect

Lash lifts are quick, painless procedures that require little preparation.

  • A patch test is often performed beforehand, and avoid wearing makeup on the treatment day.
  • It’s also advisable to remove contact lenses for comfort and refrain from curling your lashes or using waterproof mascara in the days leading up to your appointment.

During the procedure the aesthetician will:

  • Separate the lower lashes and apply a serum to lift and lengthen the upper lashes using a silicone rod.
  • Possibly adding a volumizer and tint as well.
  • The entire process takes about 45 minutes, during which you simply need to relax with your eyes closed.
Recovery

To ensure the longevity and proper setting of your lash lift, it is imperative to refrain from exposing your lashes to moisture for a period of 24 to 48 hours following the procedure.

Additionally, it is advisable to limit the application of cosmetic products around the eye area after the lash lift, as excessive use may diminish the results of the treatment.

An aesthetician may also recommend specific serums and conditioners to maintain the moisture and health of your lashes in preparation for your subsequent lash lift.

Results

Eyelashes naturally shed and regenerate every 4 to 6 weeks, so there’s no need to be concerned about long-term damage. The duration of a lash lift can vary based on the specific type you opt for and the aftercare you follow.

Typically, a lash lift lasts between 4 to 6 weeks. However, some individuals may notice the effects extending slightly beyond 6 weeks. Proper care can help maintain the results for as long as possible.

Safety Profile

Although lash lifts are generally considered safe procedures, it is imperative that they be conducted by a qualified professional.

Should the treatment be left on for an excessive duration or applied improperly, the results may be suboptimal, potentially leading to uneven or damaged, bent or disheveled lashes. 

Cost

The cost of a lash lift may vary based on geographic location and the providers experience. On average, a lash lift typically ranges from $75 to $200.
