Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, but every skin is unique. That's why we begin with a consultation to tailor treatments and product selections that respect your skin's rhythm and sensitivity.

How often should I do this treatment?

For best results, we recommend starting with a monthly session, which can then be adjusted based on your skin's response and goals. Consistency, not frequency, is key.

Will there be any downtime or side effects?

These treatments are non-invasive with minimal to no downtime. Some clients may experience mild redness or tingling that resolves within hours.

Can I combine this with other Sambrow services?

Absolutely. In fact, pairing skin treatments with our lymphatic massages or aromatherapy rituals enhances both physical results and emotional wellbeing.

How soon will I see results?

Many notice brighter, more hydrated skin after just one session. Long-term transformation occurs over several treatments, especially when paired with at-home medical-grade products.

Is this safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

We offer modified protocols for expectant or nursing mothers. Please inform us in advance so we can adjust your treatment safely.

Semi-Permanent Makeup

Semi-permanent makeup at Sambrow is a category of cosmetic tattooing — including brow embroidery, eyeliner enhancement, and lip blush — that deposits hypoallergenic pigment into the upper layers of skin to enhance the natural shape of brows, eyes, and lips. Results typically last one to three years depending on technique, skin type, and aftercare; touch-ups are recommended around the two- to three-month mark to refine colour and longevity. Every Sambrow session runs 2.5 hours and begins with a full-body lymphatic massage before any facial work — a foundational principle of the Japanese skincare approach that prepares the body before the face. Services are offered in English and Mandarin Chinese at our Markham, Ontario studio (280 Shields Ct Unit A), founded by Sam Liang after years of training in Tokyo.

A gentle return to yourself, stroke by stroke.

At Sambrow, we believe beauty is not something you chase—it's something you reawaken. Our semi-permanent beauty rituals are more than aesthetic enhancements; they are slow, mindful practices designed to honor your natural features and restore quiet confidence. We approach every brow, lip, and lash line with reverence, infusing technique with tenderness, and precision with intention.

Our Philosophy

We don’t draw on faces, we draw out essence.
Each treatment is a pause. A breath. A quiet act of devotion. Through slow gestures and curated pigments, we help you remember the elegance that was never lost only waiting to be seen again.
We honour beauty as a soulful ritual; not a fix, not a trend, but a return.

In our care, beauty becomes a soft rebellion against the rush, a celebration of who you truly are beneath the surface.

Brow Artistry & Definition

Framing your expression with elegance through soft strokes, shading, and bespoke shaping.

3D Brow

Want to achieve that 3D, super-cool gradient brow that no one can tell you’ve done? 3D brow is a technique of eyebrow embroidery that uses strokes, shading and pointillism to create dimension, depth and realism. It mimics natural eyebrow hair patterns with artistic precision, resulting in a soft yet lifted appearance.

Shadow Brow

As inspired by “Shadow”, a deeply contemplative film by director Zhang Yimou, our unique Shadow Eyebrow technique blends softness with strength. It’s ideal for those who prefer a fuller, more powdered look with dimension.

Tokyo Lip Colour Define

Why bother with expensive and potentially dangerous collagen filler treatments when you can achieve the same luscious lips via our signature Tokyo Lip Colour Define treatment? The essence of our concept is distilled from the hyper-feminine stylistic aesthetic of the modern Japanese woman who achieves perfection through natural expressions of colour and vibrance in her beauty. Our creative director, Sam, underwent intensive training in Tokyo for years and through his research has concocted this lip treatment which boils down that very aesthetic into creating an effervescent, moisturized lip that lustres morning to night. Each shade is customized to match your lip colour and what you want. Let your lips do the talking and make them stand out!

Lip Liner

Electrify your lip look and go bold with our lip liner treatment. Utilizing a single stitch method to outline the shape of your lips, our advanced technique will make your lips appear more balanced and symmetrical. With that added dimension to the definition of your lips, the presence of fine lines will be minimized and you will look fresher and more youthful!
