If you are looking for micropigmentation in Amman, this page gathers what you need to know before booking: what it is, what it costs, how long it lasts, how it differs from microblading, who it suits, and how the session goes at the Alaa Al Masri studio in Abdoun.
What is micropigmentation?
Eyebrow micropigmentation is a permanent brow technique, newer than microblading: very fine hair strokes that mimic natural hair, drawn one at a time by a fine needle on a machine, looking more natural than microblading strokes. The procedure is superficial and done under topical numbing.

Micropigmentation vs microblading
The key difference is under the skin: microblading opens an incision with a blade, micropigmentation does not cut the skin. No incision means no edges to spread, which is why it suits skin microblading does not, and lasts longer.
Who micropigmentation suits
- Oily or combination skin, where microblading strokes spread within months.
- A brow with previous work, once the old colour is lightened enough.
- Anyone wanting longer wear than the three to nine months microblading gives.
How a micropigmentation session goes
- Consultation: skin type, any previous work, and what you want.
- Measuring and mapping: I draw the shape on your face, and nothing begins until you see it in the mirror and approve it.
- Choosing the pigment to match your skin and hair.
- Topical numbing, then drawing the hair strokes with the machine.
- Instructions: ointment and written aftercare before you leave.
Micropigmentation aftercare
- Seven days: no water directly on the brow.
- Two weeks: no pool, sea, sauna or hard exercise.
- Do not pick the flakes, they pull pigment out with them.
In the first week the colour is darker than the final result, then it settles, softer and more natural, so do not judge the result before healing is complete. After a month you see something close to the final result — see a healed first micropigmentation session in Medium brown on Instagram.

Where to get micropigmentation in Amman
The studio is in Abdoun, Queen Zein Al Sharaf Street, Amman, open every day from 10:00 to 19:00. I started working on brows in 2013, and before that I was a portrait painter.
Many clients come from outside Amman. Approximate driving time: Zarqa 40 minutes, Salt and Madaba about 45 minutes, Irbid an hour and a half. The session takes about 90 minutes, so it is done the same day, with follow-up over WhatsApp.
To book or ask about your brows, message me on WhatsApp at +962797373015. Full details of the technique are on the micropigmentation page.
