Gitte's Story

After recovering from MOHS surgery in 1995 to remove Basel Cell skin cancer from my face, including skin graphs to close a gaping hole, I was left with a scar, and no hair in middle of my left eyebrow. 

For the next few years following I went through a series of hair transplants that allowed me to gain several hair follicles in the area, but with limited results.

For ten more years I struggled with trying different approaches to filling in the affected eyebrow. Cosmetic pencils didn't apply well to the scar tissue.

I had great difficulty drawing in the eyebrows, trying to follow a specific shape, and therefore never achieving two eyebrows that looked at all the same. Every morning I spent an extra half hour preparing the eyebrows alone.

After much consideration and research, I found Lisa Jewell who offered the solutions I had searched for, for all these years.  As an expert colorist and cosmetic tattoo specialist Certified Micro Pigmentation Practitioner), Lisa gave me new eyebrows that define shape, color and coverage with a natural look.

This has changed my life in so many ways. With the decreased amount of maintenance time in the morning I'm able to get ready faster and go. As a sole business owner and mother, this gained time has proven to be very valuable. I am able to swim and be athletically active with out smudging and loss of color to the brows.

There is no longer the need for cosmetic pencil and with my increased self-confidence I couldn't be  happier. When a person goes through this type of health experience, and looks for cosmetic solutions such as plastic surgery or cosmetic implementations,  they must be very careful to choose the right solutions and professionals to look after them. 

I highly recommend Lisa Jewell and sincerely advise that every potential client of hers is in excellent hands. Not only is she an experienced professional and an educated expert of her field, she is a person of flexibility, sensitivity and is a pleasure to work with.
