The 1207F is a seven-needle flat shader on a 0.35 mm taper — the widest flat in the range. Seven needles in a straight row lay a broad, even band of colour with a defined edge, making it the cartridge for shading large areas fast: full powder brow bodies, complete lip fills and any work that needs even coverage quickly.

At a glance

• Configuration — 7 Flat Shader (7F)
• Needle diameter — 0.35 mm

• Pack size — set of 10
• Fitment — Elite PMU Machine
• Hygiene — filtered cartridge with a back-flow membrane, single use, individually sealed

Why seven needles in a row

The seven-needle flat is about coverage with control. The wide straight row shades a large area in far fewer passes than a smaller cartridge, while the flat arrangement keeps the colour even and the edge defined — you get speed without losing structure. It is the workhorse flat for the body of a powder brow and for full lip colour.

For tighter areas or more delicate structure, drop to the five-needle 1205F; for a finer, softer band, the 0807F at 0.25 mm. When you want the edges to disappear into a soft ombre, move to a curved magnum (0807U).

Where the 1207F sits in the range

All Elite cartridges share the same body and membrane; the needle arrangement sets the job.

• Flat shaders (F) — 1205F (5 needles) and 1207F (7 needles) at 0.35 mm; the finer 0807F (7 needles, 0.25 mm).
• Curved magnums (0805U, 0807U) — softer, diffused gradients.
• Round shaders (1003RS) — feathered shading in tight, round areas.

Step down to the 1205F for tighter work, to the 0807F for a finer band, or across to a magnum for a borderless fade.

Working with it

A wide flat exposes technique instantly. Keep the full row flat to the skin so all seven needles seat evenly — any tilt streaks across a wide band. Work in even, overlapping passes and build in layers; seven needles at 0.35 mm move a lot of pigment, so a light, patient hand heals far cleaner than a heavy one. Feather the pressure at the edges.

Hygiene and disposal

Every cartridge is a single-use, individually sealed unit with a filtered back-flow membrane that keeps pigment and fluid out of the machine grip. Check the seal before you open it; if the blister is compromised, discard it. Dispose of used cartridges in a sharps container in line with your state's requirements — in California that means an approved sharps waste container, never household waste.
