★★★★★ — Elizabeth Tripp· via Google

Such a wonderful experience!! Very communicative the weeks prior to the appointment. They answered all of my questions, responses were very quick, a lot of reassurance and information. Their directions were totally accurate and it was easy to find. The service was one on one and not rushed. The eyebrows were designed to perfection and the numbing cream made the experience comfortable. I would come back again for sure!! Thank you Aya Seoul! 😁

★★★★★ — Kelly Freeman · via Google

From start to finish, this was a great experience. The communication before my appointment was good, and they left great directions on how to get to the place in Seoul. The lash technician was very patient and made my lashes look dramatic and wonderful. The lip technician was thorough, and my lips are vivid with color — just what I wanted.

/frequently asked questions/

Questions & Answers

  • A numbing cream is applied before and during your session, so most clients describe it as mild discomfort rather than pain — especially for brows. Sensitivity varies by area and individual.

  • PMU is semi-permanent. Brows typically last 1–3 years and lip blush around 1–2 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.

  • Yes. Color is chosen through undertone-based matching, and our work is designed for soft, realistic results across all skin tones — not a single "Korean" shade.

  • You can travel and go out, but expect mild swelling and light flaking for about a week, with color softening as it heals. We'll give you simple aftercare you can follow on the go.

  • Plan for about 2~3 hours including your 1:1 consultation, design, and treatment. We recommend keeping the rest of your day light.

  • Yes. A touch-up is possible from at least 5 weeks after your first session, once your skin has gone through its natural regeneration cycle.

    That said, many of our clients fly in from overseas and can't easily return for one — so we plan for that from the very first session. For visiting clients, we take extra time to build the pigment in fine, careful layers, more so than a standard local session, so that even a single visit reaches the most complete, polished result possible.

  • Because every brow, lip, and lash design is tailored to you, pricing is confirmed through a personal 1:1 consultation rather than a fixed price list. The final cost depends on the service you choose, the technique that best suits your features, and the condition we're working with — for example, whether there's previous PMU to correct.

    To get started, send us a photo on LINE, WhatsApp, or Instagram. We'll review your case, recommend the right approach, and guide you on pricing before your visit — so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Booking is through LINE, WhatsApp, or Instagram. Slots are 1:1, so we recommend reserving ahead — especially to lock in your travel dates.
