By Laurelle

Laurelle Mathis runs this studio from Renovaré Salon, which she co-owns, and she also owns By Laurelle. Treatments take place in a private room with the door closed, and consultations are held one-on-one, with client details and photos kept confidential. Clients are drawn from across the Santa Clarita Valley, including Valencia, Newhall, Canyon Country, Stevenson Ranch, Saugus and Castaic, as well as nearby communities.

The permanent makeup menu covers powder brows, microblading, nano brows, combo brows, eyeliner and lip blushing. Nano brows are created with a digital machine that makes ultra-fine, hair-like strokes. Eyeliner can be done as a lash line enhancement, a classic liner, or a soft wing where it suits the eye shape. Microblading and nano brows include one complimentary touch-up visit about 4-6 weeks after the first appointment, while powder brows, combo brows, eyeliner and lip blushing include a touch-up 6-8 weeks out. Microblading, nano brows and combo brows typically last 1-3 years, permanent eyeliner 2-5 years, and lip blushing 2-3 years.

Paramedical restoration includes 3D areola restoration for people healing after surgery or experiencing areola changes for medical or aesthetic reasons, including after mastectomy and gender-affirming top surgery. The process begins with a consultation, then a custom design and color match, topical numbing, micropigmentation and 3D shading, with one initial session and a perfecting session at 6-12 weeks. Results are semi-permanent and typically last 2-5+ years. Surgical scar blending and stretch mark blending are done in sessions of 1-3 hours, with a perfecting session at 6-10 weeks. Scar blending is best booked once scars have fully matured. Stretch mark blending suits mature, lighter marks, while newer red or purple marks are treated once fully healed. Support persons may attend scar blending appointments, and mirrors are optional. Topical numbing is available for both scar and stretch mark blending. The business describes this work as trauma-informed, with consent at every stage.

Fine line tattoos, including tiny and micro designs, can include initials, names, dates, handwriting, symbols, florals, birth flowers, butterflies, small animals, meaningful words and custom small pieces. The business advises that design size and placement affect how long a fine line tattoo stays clear, since friction, sun exposure and constant movement can cause fading, so clients are helped to choose a size and placement suited to a well-healed result. Aftercare instructions are provided. Hygiene practices include single-use sterile needles, medical-grade disinfectants, and tools opened in front of the client. The facility is registered with the County of Los Angeles Public Health Environmental Health Division under facility number FA0222816. A free consultation is offered before booking.

Each service is tailored to the client's needs, and paramedical work is described as trauma-informed, with consent at every stage. Custom pigment blending is used for all skin tones, with extra care for deeper skin tones.

Treatments take place in a dedicated, closed-door room inside Renovaré Salon.
