Microblading is a highly popular and effective technique within the realm of cosmetic tattooing. This semi-permanent procedure involves the use of a specialized handheld tool that resembles a sloped blade, equipped with tiny needles. These needles are skillfully used to create hair-like strokes, seamlessly blending with your natural brow hairs. The pigment is carefully deposited into the upper region of the dermis, resulting in the appearance of fuller and more defined eyebrows. Results typically last between 1 to 3 years, although the longevity may vary depending on factors such as skin type and lifestyle. It is important to note that immediately after the procedure, the brows may appear darker than their desired shade. However, this effect is temporary, lasting for about a week.
During the initial healing period, it is crucial to avoid getting the brows wet and to refrain from applying makeup to the area. By following these guidelines you can ensure optimal healing and achieve the desired outcome of beautifully enhanced eyebrows.
While it is generally safe and well-tolerated, there are specific circumstances in which Microblading may not be recommended:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active skin infection
- Blood-thinning medications
- Recent chemical peels or laser treatments, Botox needs to have a 10-day waiting period prior to having Microblading
- History of keloids or hypertrophic scarring
