What You Should Know Before Microblading?

Consultation is Key: Before your appointment, you'll meet with a professional to discuss your desired look and any concerns.
It’s Semi-Permanent: Microblading results typically last between 1 to 3 years, but touch-ups may be needed for maintenance.
Pain Level: Some discomfort may occur during the procedure, but topical anesthetics are applied to minimize pain.
Aftercare: Follow post-treatment instructions closely to avoid infection and ensure optimal results. This includes avoiding makeup on the brows for a few days.
Consider Skin Type: Oily skin can affect the longevity of the pigment. Consult with your technician to determine the best options.
Healing Time: Expect some redness or swelling right after the procedure, but most healing occurs within 1-2 weeks.
Permanent, But Fades Over Time: The color will naturally fade, so periodic touch-ups are recommended for long-lasting results.
