Eyelash Botox allows you to create the effect of extensions on natural hairs. An open, charming look of lush and strong eyelashes - this is the result you get immediately after the first procedure. This explains the extraordinary popularity of this service among girls who strive for a natural look in their image.

In addition, this procedure is recommended by cosmetologists because it helps to improve the health of eyelashes, improve their condition and growth, as well as eliminate the results of poor-quality cosmetic interventions. If you still haven’t felt the magical effect of Botox, it’s time to get to know it better and increase the thickness and strength of your hair.

Eyelash Botox – what is it?

Lash Botox has become increasingly popular lately. Let's figure out what this procedure is. When performing this procedure, a special drug, botulinum toxin, is applied to the hairs. It is also used to spasm and immobilize muscles, but in this case, Botox helps to achieve the desired structure of the eyelashes.

The substance used in the process of performing eyelash Botox contains various components that are actively used both in the cosmetology field and in the medical field:

Argan oil – moisturizes hair, promotes the absorption of tocopherol.
Citric acid – normalizes pH levels, protects tissues from negative effects.
Vitamin E – controls and normalizes body processes associated with oxidation and reduction.
Vitamin B and its varieties nourish and moisturize eyelashes.
Panthenol – eliminates possible inflammation and irritation.
Collagen – makes hair more elastic and resilient.
Hyaluronic acid – restores damaged villi structure and accelerates their growth.
Keratin - strengthens eyelashes, prevents their weakness and fragility.

Cost of the procedure

Average price of Botox and lamination in various cities of Russia:

Moscow. For many masters, the cost of the procedure starts from 5000-6000 rubles as standard. Sometimes you can find promotions and discounts, but it is important to ensure that high-quality and not expired materials are used. If a specialist has a positive reputation, and he provides all the information on the products he uses, shows them and does not hide anything, then you can safely work with him. You can find a master on popular resources with advertisements. Popular clinics include Adames Beauty Academy, GLOSS beauty studio, and Beauty Pro.
In St. Petersburg. The cost is not much different from Moscow, usually it’s the same 5-7 thousand.
In Irkutsk. The determining factor here is the location of the procedure. Salon services cost from 6-7 thousand, private specialists offer prices from 3-4 thousand. Here, as usual, it is necessary to monitor the qualifications of the master and the materials he uses. In this city, Lash Magic has gained a positive reputation among clinics. Offers from private specialists can be viewed on bulletin boards.
In Omsk. In this city, as in most others, clinics offer prices from 5-6 thousand, and private masters 4-5 thousand.

It should be noted that the price of private cosmetologists is much lower than in professional salons and clinics. To determine the quality of the master’s work, ask to see examples of work.

Many private cosmetologists maintain pages on social networks where patients follow and post photographs in their portfolio. Without a channel, you should take contacts of real patients and contact them with a question or attend a real procedure.

Eyelash Botox: pros and cons of the procedure

Of course, the eyelash Botox procedure has pros and cons. But this is not a reason to refuse it, because the advantages are much greater. Let's take a closer look at them.

Activation of dormant hair follicles.

After applying a special composition to the hairs, the dormant bulbs begin to awaken. After about a month, you will notice that your eyelashes have become noticeably thicker.

Nutrition of cells and hair structure with useful elements.

In addition to giving eyelashes an attractive appearance, Botox nourishes them with essential substances. Therefore, even after the visual effect of the procedure fades away, the hairs will still remain moisturized and healthy.

Long-term results.

The composition penetrates deep into the hair structure, due to which the effect lasts for a couple of months.

Neat and well-groomed appearance.

Eyelash extensions are visible to the naked eye. After Botox, they look very natural, because the composition is applied evenly along the entire length, without missing even the smallest bristles.

There are no restrictions after the procedure.

With Botox on your eyelashes, you can safely apply decorative cosmetics, including mascara, and lead your usual lifestyle. It is not prohibited to visit baths, saunas and swimming pools.

Natural result.

Many girls wonder how eyelash botox differs from other procedures. It's simple - your hair will look natural even without the use of tricky techniques. You don’t have to hide glued artificial buns, curl your hair with curling irons or dye it.

Noticeable effect after the first procedure.

When you open your eyes after a Botox session, you will immediately be able to evaluate the results. The skin is not injured during the process, which means there is no need to wait for wounds to heal.

No pain.

You will not feel any discomfort during the procedure, even though no anesthesia is used. During application of the composition, the skin may tingle slightly, but it is not painful at all.

Among the disadvantages of Botox, one can highlight the presence of a number of contraindications. We will get acquainted with them a little later. If there is at least one of them, the procedure is strictly prohibited.

Another significant disadvantage of eyelash Botox is the session time. The procedure lasts at least 2-3 hours. In fact, this is quite reasonable, because any interaction with villi requires care and scrupulousness.

Your favorite music on headphones or an audiobook will help you while away these hours.

Do you dream of long and thick eyelashes? We recommend paying attention to the eyelash botox procedure, which can revive damaged hairs even after extensions. However, first you need to familiarize yourself with a number of contraindications:

individual intolerance to components;
previous eye surgeries;
injury to the area around the eyes and the organ of vision itself;
eye diseases associated with infection;
ultra-high sensitivity;
increased tearfulness;
pregnancy period (high probability of unpredictable results due to changes in hormonal levels);
menstruation.

Remember that with Botox you can also strengthen your eyebrows. The procedure is recommended for those with thin and unnoticeable hair, as well as for those whose hair is unruly.

A special composition containing botulinum toxin will make the villi more elastic and strong, giving them a rich dark shade. You will no longer have to waste time styling your eyebrows, because after the session they will look neat and well-groomed. The result will last for a couple of months, after which the procedure should be repeated.

What is the alternative?

Are there any other similar procedures besides Botox? Of course yes. Some can be performed not only instead of Botox, but also together, comprehensively. This will not only have a beneficial effect on the health of your eyelashes, but will also enhance the beautiful effect of fluffy and long eyelashes.

Lamination

The lamination procedure also helps strengthen and grow eyelashes. The effect lasts quite a long time, the eyelashes look very beautiful, they become longer and thicker.
The big advantage of this procedure is that even after its completion, the eyelashes continue to grow. Lamination can be done with Botox or separately. Many masters recommend the complex for those whose hairs are weakened and whose eyelashes themselves are naturally light and not thick.

Building up

The effects of the two procedures are similar, but there are also significant differences. Extensions provide only a visual effect; often after completion of the procedure, the eyelashes may not look very healthy. Botox, on the contrary, ensures the health of our eyelashes. Even if you note that with eyelash extensions, eyelashes look much more voluminous, Botox provides a much longer lasting effect.

On a note. By the way, one of the differences between eyelash extensions and Botox is that eyelash extensions are much more finicky to care for. They need to be combed and not use certain products, and at night they can curl up.

Since with Botox the procedure is carried out specifically on natural eyelashes , they do not require any special behavior. But, unfortunately, the procedure is much more expensive than lamination or extensions.

What materials are needed to make eyelash botox?

The kit required for eyelash Botox procedure contains the following components:

Several rollers of different sizes - they fix and curl the hairs.
The dye is indispensable for light-colored fibers; it helps give them a rich tone.
Serum intended for application to hair. The manufacturer, at its discretion, can make the drug single-phase or acting in stages.
Degreaser – cleanses the villi from excess sebum. Some manufacturers do not include it in the kit.
Comb for eyelashes.
Brush for applying serum.

Don't forget about the additional materials you will definitely need:

cotton buds;
towel;
polyethylene film;
napkins:
cotton swabs;
foil.

All of the above components will make the procedure more effective.

Expert opinion

Irina Dorofeeva

practicing cosmetologist

These procedures are very similar, which is why they are often confused. They have similar techniques, so many ladies do not fully understand what the difference is between Botox and eyelash lamination. But I advise you to carefully study the features of these manipulations. The girl must understand what effect she expects. To achieve it, sometimes, for example, lamination alone is enough, and sometimes you have to combine these procedures.

Amy Bundy

plastic surgeon

The combination of these procedures gives amazing results.
Firstly, the curve changes, but this is the dream of many girls, and secondly, the eyelashes seem much longer. The hairs themselves become thicker due to the application of the composition, they are more manageable, they are strengthened. This is the real effect of manipulation. That's all the information that all those who are thinking about carrying out this procedure should know. You shouldn’t expect miracles from the technique, but you can give your eyelashes a well-groomed look, highlight them and save yourself from the need to constantly apply makeup this way.

The 8 weeks of results declared by marketers can still only be dreamed of, but even the figure of 4-6 weeks is completely justified.

Reviews

MARINA, 24 YEARS OLD, MOSCOW:

“I can’t say that I have naturally bad eyelashes.
But, like any other girl, I always want to look better and more beautiful. I generally don’t like to experiment with my appearance and I simply don’t sign up for any dubious procedures. But when I found out what Botox and lamination are, I really caught fire. I have already done eyebrow tattooing, or, as it is now beautifully called, microblading, and I have already appreciated the joy of permanent makeup.

Having sparse eyebrows by nature, with not the best shape, I was forced to paint my eyebrows every day and it really froze me out. In the morning you get up to study, your face is swollen, you try to draw something there, it turns out crooked, sometimes it’s unnatural, but you can’t put on makeup - it’s also terrible, in general, tattooing has become a salvation for me.

And now you can make it so that you don’t even have to paint your eyelashes! I looked at the photo online, it looks very attractive, the price is a bit expensive, but you always have to pay for comfort.

I made an appointment at the salon, everything was clean and sterile, they did the procedure with gloves, all the instruments (except for eyelid pads) were disposable. The effect, of course, is far from being as promised, but even with such eyelashes there is no need to apply makeup. Looks beautiful. It started to go away after the 4th week.”

IRINA, 32 YEARS OLD, KALUGA:

“I immediately noticed the difference between false eyelashes and laminated ones.
Botox not only eliminates the need to wear makeup every day, but also gives a natural look. As for me, the price for this is too high, there’s not much you can do every 2 months, but if the financial issue is not pressing, then this is simply a brilliant solution.”

How is eyelash botox done: stages of the procedure

One Botox session lasts about two hours. Do not be afraid of such a duration, because at this time you are lying on the couch in a relaxed state. Depending on the client’s preferences, before applying the serum, it is possible to color the eyelashes in the desired tone and curl them using a curling iron.

How is the eyelash botox procedure done? Let's consider the correct sequence of actions:

Cleaning the work surface. Decorative cosmetics must be removed, after which a degreaser is applied.
Gluing the hydrogel backing onto the eyelashes of the lower eyelid. Hair should be clean and dry.
Giving the upper eyelashes a graceful curve using a roller. It is important to secure the hairs along the entire length, starting from the very base.
Applying the curling compound.
Eyelash coloring with high-quality dye intended for professional use. The shade is selected based on the client's preferences. Favorites are black and brown paint tones.
The previous actions are consolidated by applying Botox to the hairs. It also helps restore and strengthen eyelashes.

Each product used during the procedure must be left on for about 5–10 minutes, and then removed with a cotton pad.

Keep in mind that if you use foil or plastic wrap, your Botox results will be more effective. Heat promotes the penetration of nutrients deep into the hair structure.

It is quite possible to give your eyelashes a healthy shine and a beautiful shade, make them strong and voluminous, you just need to strictly follow the sequence of actions of the Botox strengthening procedure.

The session lasts about two hours. Of course, this is an approximate time, because everything depends on the current condition of the hairs and their length. In some cases, the procedure can take up to three and a half hours. During this time, the master will curl, color the eyelashes and apply a special composition to them. The most difficult stage is securing the hairs to the roller. In order for the result to exceed all expectations, you need to carefully untangle the eyelashes and stick them in such a way that the curve turns out to be really beautiful.

Question answer

The duration of the effect directly depends on the patient’s metabolism, the general condition of the eyelashes, and the amount of eyelashes that fall out. The average duration of the effect is 4-5 weeks. Sometimes this figure is slightly lower, in rare cases higher.

Indeed, often girls go to specialists who perform bio-perms and dye eyelashes, but pass off their actions as expensive procedures - lamination and Botox. Unfortunately, the woman does not see the session itself and cannot monitor the correct execution. The only way out in this situation is to visit salons with a good reputation. It is easy to understand that you have been deceived: the effect of a bio-perm will last a maximum of 1-2 weeks.

A person gets an instant result that lasts for a long period. The session itself is easy, which is a plus for both the client and the specialist. The woman does not feel pain; these procedures are completely safe. The result is an amazing effect, saving time, which is very convenient.

Rules of care after the Lash Botox procedure for eyelashes

Another advantage of Botox eyelash enhancement is that there is no need for special care after the procedure. But we still recommend adhering to some rules:

Wash off your makeup before going to bed. This is necessary so that your eyelashes and sensitive eyelid skin can breathe at night. Otherwise, you may experience premature aging changes on your face.
Carry out the makeup removal procedure correctly. Do not rub your eyes and eyelashes. Your movements should be smooth. Follow the direction from the bridge of your nose to your cheekbones. Ignoring this rule will lead to hair loss.
Makeup removers should not contain alcohol or other alkaline components. Their use will disrupt the natural pH environment of the skin, causing the eyelashes to become thin and weak.
Additionally, apply plant oils to your eyelashes, such as castor or burdock. They are in perfect harmony with Botox. Their regular use helps strengthen hairs and accelerate their growth.

We recommend performing the Lash Botox procedure from a cosmetologist with medical education and certification. You can go to beauty salons or find a specialist who works at home.

In the latter case, the cost of the session will be lower, but do not forget to ask the specialist for a certificate. In its absence, be prepared for the fact that if a conflict situation arises, the master will relieve himself of all responsibility.

The drug used in the process of strengthening eyelashes with Botox can be purchased at a cosmetic store or ordered online. Of course, you can try to apply Botox yourself, but keep in mind that even for an experienced specialist this is not an easy task.

Advice from experienced cosmetologists

Cosmetologists advise girls who have undergone a keratin procedure to care for their eyelashes as follows:

On the first day, allow the keratin to absorb into the eyelid hairs throughout the day. You can’t paint them, wash your face with water so as not to get them wet.
You cannot use mascara that contains alcohol and acid, which reduce the effect after lamination.
Peach or castor oil should be applied to your eyelashes three times a week. This procedure is done before bedtime in order to wash off dust and dirt from them. During the cleansing process, be careful not to get the oil into your eyes.
When using scrubs and masks, you need to do it carefully so as not to damage your eyelashes.
It is recommended to comb your eyelashes in the morning. For this, special brushes are used.

Cosmetologists can make eyelashes beautiful. For the effect to last, the girl herself needs to take care of them and follow all the recommendations of specialists.

How often can you do eyelash botox and how long does it last?

Eyelashes are renewed every two months, which means Botox does not accumulate in them. The treated hair falls out, and along with it the result of the procedure is reduced to nothing. Therefore, experts recommend repeating a Botox strengthening session every 1-3 months or conducting it in courses of 5 sessions at intervals of a couple of weeks.

In the latter case, after applying Lash Botox several times in a row, keep in mind that the hairs need rest. Take a break for a couple of months and wait for them to update.

Botox on eyelashes lasts about one and a half to two months. Of course, this period is individual, because everything depends on the intensity of their growth. After the eyelashes are completely renewed, the effect of the procedure will be completely unnoticeable.

What effect should you expect?

What marketers say: “After performing the Botox procedure and lamination of eyelashes, they will become pronounced, highlighted, 2 times longer, curled, and well-groomed. This effect will last up to 8 weeks.” What's actually happening:

firstly, the effect does not last for 8 weeks. The maximum period that has been recorded is only 6 weeks. This is explained by the simple regenerative abilities of the body - in 6 weeks the eyelashes have time to fall out for the most part and are renewed, as a result of which the result fades to nothing;
secondly, you should not expect any “2-fold lengthening” - eyelashes do not have the ability to stretch by more than a few percent. The lengthening effect occurs due to the coloring of faded and thin ends of eyelashes;
thirdly, the real effect of Botox and lamination is the coloring of eyelashes, their obvious highlighting, the look really becomes expressive. There is no need to use mascara with such quality eyelashes, and, frankly, it won’t work.

After the procedure, the eyelashes slightly change their structure, because the enveloping composition affects the quality of the hairs - they become thicker and smoother. For this reason, when applied, mascara begins to stick together and roll into lumps.

Eyelash Botox, lamination, corduroy and extensions: what is the difference

Eyelash Botox and lamination.

Many girls wonder what is better – Botox or eyelash lamination. Let's look at this in more detail.

In the fight for beautiful and voluminous eyelashes, the following cosmetic procedures will be your faithful assistants:

extension;
lamination;
Botox.

The first option is not suitable for everyone, because the effect of the extension lasts for about a month, while the natural hairs become thinner. In order to return them to a healthy appearance, you need to make a lot of effort.

The other two options are similar to each other, and many consider them identical. Let's figure out how Botox differs from eyelash lamination:

Compound. The drugs used during the procedures contain different components. For example, the lamination product contains keratin, chamomile, hops and yarrow, and with Botox an additional volume of keratin is used.
Duration of eyelash lamination and botox sessions. The difference is not very significant and is about half an hour. Strengthening with Botox takes from one hour to an hour and a half, and lamination takes on average no more than 50 minutes.
Price. Lamination and Botox of eyelashes differ in price - the use of Lash Botox and keratin from another company help to increase it.
For a more thorough effect of keratin on the hair structure, heat is necessary. To do this, use plastic film or foil to cover the work surface. The use of additional volume of keratin makes the eyelashes thicker and smoother, sealing all damage. The results of eyelash lamination and Botox in the “before and after” photo are impressive, but the effect will last for a long time (up to about 1.5 months) only if a high-quality composition is used.

Indeed, these two procedures are very similar to each other. But which one should you choose? Experts say that the effect of Botox will last longer due to the fact that the substance penetrates deep into the structure of the hair. Keratin used for lamination is washed out much faster.

Maybe it makes sense to do eyelash lamination and botox at the same time? Let's figure it out. Let's start with the fact that the purpose of the first is the attractive appearance of the eyelashes, and strengthening with botulinum toxin is aimed at restoring the structure of the hairs. Moreover, both techniques are absolutely safe and will not cause any harm. This means that it is quite advisable to combine them.

Undoubtedly, the procedures are very similar in their effect. They are interchangeable, and alternation is allowed. There is nothing critical about doing eyelash Botox after lamination. In any case, you will be satisfied with the attractive appearance of your eyelashes.

There is probably no point in further comparing these two popular cosmetic procedures. Eyelash Botox without lamination will make the hairs thicker, but will not give them the desired shade. Without strengthening with botulinum toxin, it will not be possible to add volume to sparsely growing villi. The right solution lies in combining techniques with each other.

Don't worry, combining procedures will not affect the final result in any way. The Lamination Plus Eyelash Botox complex lasts about an hour and a half. The hairs are first degreased, after which one composition is applied, and then another. The components of Botox and lamination serums are in perfect harmony with each other.

As a result of the complex procedure, you will leave the cosmetologist with long, thick eyelashes of a rich shade, which at the same time look very natural. Visually, it seems as if the hairs are painted and curled. I can't help but rejoice at the lack of restrictions after the session. Do what you are used to, for example, wash your face in the usual way or sleep with your head buried in a pillow.

Botox eyelashes and corduroy.

These two procedures are also often confused with each other.

Their main difference lies in the composition of the drug used. The corduroy procedure helps give the bristles the desired shade and curve, and also helps speed up their renewal. The resulting effect will last for three months.

Keep in mind that in order for hair growth to accelerate after the procedure, time must pass.

Botox for eyelashes lash botox and extensions.

Eyelash extensions are gaining popularity at an accelerated pace. Its advantage is that in a short time you can make your look more expressive. During the procedure, bundles of artificial hairs are used, which are attached to the natural villi using special glue.

Thanks to eyelash extensions, you can experiment with your look. Bunches can be of different lengths, thicknesses and even colors. Undoubtedly, this effect cannot be achieved with Botox, but keep in mind that with regular application of the serum, the eyelashes will become longer and more beautiful after just a few sessions.

Is it possible to dye laminated eyelashes?

How to properly apply mascara to eyelashes

After lamination, eyelashes become thick, natural and long. This is exactly what every woman dreams of. The very first question clients ask cosmetologists is, is it possible to dye laminated eyelashes?

Is it possible to dye laminated eyelashes?

During the first twenty-four hours, mascara should not be applied under any circumstances. In addition, it is not recommended to use cosmetics at all, or wash your face with water. After just a day, you can safely use cosmetics.

Important! You don't have to put in a lot of effort to color lashes that have undergone a keratin treatment, as they are curved and only require a light application of color.

After lamination, you need to paint your eyelashes from roots to tips using slow and even movements. Natural henna can be used as a dye. You should not press the brush too hard on the laminated hair; you can only twist it slightly. Mascara is applied only once. Otherwise, the eyelashes will become heavy.
