What is Microblading and How Does it Work?

Microblading involves using a handheld tool with small needles to deposit pigment into the skin in fine, hair-like strokes. The result is a fuller, more defined brow that can last anywhere from one to three years.

The process begins with a consultation with the technician, during which you can discuss your desired outcome and ensure that microblading is the right procedure for you. The technician will also examine your skin type and existing eyebrow shape to determine the best approach.

On the day of the procedure, the technician will apply a numbing cream to the area to minimize any discomfort. Then, using a small handheld tool with sterile, disposable needles, they will begin creating tiny, hair-like strokes in the skin. The pigment is deposited into these strokes to create the appearance of fuller eyebrows.

The technician will work with you to ensure that the shape and color are to your liking, and the process usually takes about two hours. After the procedure, the treated area may be slightly swollen and red, but this should subside within a few days. It's important to follow proper aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results. This includes avoiding getting the area wet for at least 24 hours, applying a healing ointment as directed, avoiding sun exposure, and not picking at or scratching the treated area.

Overall, microblading can be a great option for anyone looking to enhance their eyebrows or who has sparse or uneven brows. With proper care and touch-ups as needed, the results can last for years and provide a more confident, polished look.
