About

Elevation Beauty Ink is a cosmetic tattooing and facial studio in San Diego's University Heights neighborhood, occupying Suite A at 1730 Monroe Avenue in the 92116 ZIP, one block south of the main Adams Avenue commercial strip. The studio specializes in ombr' powder brows — a machine-based semi-permanent tattoo technique that deposits pixelated pigment to mimic the look of softly shaded pencil — and extends into clinical facials built around KRX Carboxy Therapy, an advanced Korean oxygen protocol that boosts circulation and cell renewal through CO2 infusion. That dual focus on semi-permanent brows and results-driven facials makes the studio a single stop for clients who split their aesthetic maintenance between pigment work and skin texture — the same clients who book full-spectrum hair color at Salon Bordeaux on Adams Avenue. Cover-up corrections for brow work originally done at other studios round out the cosmetic tattooing side, with color-boost appointments for existing clients maintaining pigment saturation through seasonal fading cycles. Dermaplaning, pumpkin enzyme peels, and V-Tox lifting treatments fill out the skincare menu, each paired with a sculpting and lymphatic-drainage massage, scalp massage, and SPF finishing products. Park Blvd intersects Monroe Avenue and runs south into Balboa Park, placing the studio within a five-minute drive of the San Diego Zoo for visitors who schedule beauty appointments before or after a day at the park. University Heights's walkable grid also connects the studio to the Pilates and yoga studios on the Park Blvd corridor, including Beyond Pilates Studio, Kensington, where post-workout clients book same-week brow or facial appointments. The 90-minute signature facial layers a double cleanse, enzyme exfoliation, custom hydrating mask, and a 30-minute facial sculpting massage into a single session designed to prep skin before a powder-brow procedure or maintain texture between pigment refreshes.
