Microblading

 

Microblading is a form of permanent makeup that creates beautiful, natural looking eyebrows with a handheld microblade. It’s perfect for people who have over-plucked brows or for those who want to define, darken or reshape their eyebrows.

 

Benefits of  Micro blading

  • Spend less time getting ready in the morning – your eyebrows are perfect every day!

  • No makeup touch-ups required during the day since the pigment will not smudge or smear

  • Lasts between 1 to 3 years, on average

  • Safe when performed by an experienced microblading artist

 

Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo procedure used to replace lost brows or make eyebrows appear fuller. Our trained aestheticians use a combination of hair-like strokes and shading to create a natural looking brow. Although this technique is a tattoo, the pigment is placed closer to the surface of the skin allowing for the tattoo to naturally fade over a two year time period. This gives us the opportunity to customize and change brow shape and color as you age.

 

 

Our aestheticians perform this semi-permanent procedure by using fine deposits of cosmetic tattoo pigment matched to you're specific color to artistically place hair-like strokes to form a natural looking eyebrow. This procedure is used to partially replace missing or thinning eyebrow hair. Our aestheticians have been fully trained so that only the most discerning eye will know it is not you're real hair.
 
As we are building brows, this is a series of appointments.  You're first appointment is about 2 1/2 hours.  The first 45 minutes is all about designing and customizing you're brows.  The next 1 and 45 minutes are spent performing the procedure, placing precise hair strokes.  Four to six weeks later, we will see you for you're perfection appointment.  This is where we build on the inital strokes to add depth and dimension.  Healing and recovery are unique to every patient.
 
Different skin types retain pignment in different ways and for different length of time.  Some patients may require a touch up after 6 months.  Others may not need a touch up for 2 years.

Am I a candidate for Microblading?

During an initial consultation our aestheticians will listen to you're concerns

 and discuss the risks and benefits of Microblading.  You cannot be pregnant

or breastfeeding at appointment times.

 

Is Microblading painful?

This procedure can be slightly uncomfortable. We will discuss numbing

options with you.  The sound of the tattooing process is typically what bothers

patients so we suggest bringing some headphones.

 

What are the side effects of  Microblading?

Most patients experience slight inflammation immediately following the procedure. The area may slightly and lightly scab. You're eyebrows may appear darker immediately following the treatment however will fade over a 2 week period to reach you're desired result. Patients are encouraged to visit the office after one month for a touch up treatment. Tattooed brows will last 6 months to 2 years depending on the skin type and care.

​

Microblading post-care is very important to the appearance and longevity of your new eyebrows. Do not let any water, lotion, soap, or makeup touch your eyebrow area during the first 7 days after your procedure.

After 5-7 days, make sure your hands are completely clean and gently apply the post-care ointment with clean hands.  This can be done once at night time, but be sure to use the ointment sparingly as your skin needs to heal itself.  Please continue to apply the ointment for 7 days.

The following must be avoided during all 14 days post-microblading procedure:

  • Increased sweating

  • Practicing sports

  • Swimming

  • Hot sauna, hot bath, or Jacuzzi

  • Sun tanning or salon tanning

  • UV/UVA Rays or chemicals as they have been known to cause a shift in color and premature fading

  • Any laser or chemical treatments or peelings, and/or any creams containing Retin-A or Glycolic acid on the face or neck

  • Picking, peeling, or scratching of the micro pigmented area in order to avoid scarring of the area or removal of the pigment

  • Performing tasks related to heavy household cleaning such as garage or basement cleaning where there is a lot of airborne debris

  • Drinking alcohol in excess, as it may lead to slow healing of wounds

  • Driving in open air vehicles such as convertibles, boats, bicycles, or motorcycles

  • Touching of the eyebrow area except for when rinsing and applying the post-care cream with a cotton swab

Please wash your face carefully around the eyebrow without getting water on the treated area.  During the shower, keep your face away from the showerhead or take a bath.

Itching and flaking may appear during the first seven days post-microblading procedure.  However, experience has shown that by following these after-care instructions, these symptoms may quickly disappear.

​

If you have any unexpected problems with the healing of the skin, please contact Fab Skin Center immediately, to discuss further instructions.

Contact a physician if any signs or symptoms develop such as the following: fever, redness at the site, swelling, tenderness of the procedure site, elevated body temperature, red streaks going from the procedure site towards the heart, and/or any green/yellow discharge that is foul in odor.

​

What to Expect During and After Your Microblading Session

Entire healing process will take from 4-6 weeks depending on your body regeneration and age. Your new eyebrows will go through several phases during the healing cycle.

The pigment will appear very natural looking immediately after the procedure. The color of the pigment will appear much darker the next day.

Note that because of natural skin regeneration, after recovery period (peeling), brows might appear lighter than original. This might give you the impression that color is fading too quickly. Often even with proper care, clients may lose original hairstrokes which make brows look uneven. It is absolutely normal. That’s is the reason why most clients need a touchup after 6 weeks.

Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes or dry skin. However, this is just superficial color and dry skin being naturally removed from your eyebrows.  The final look of your eyebrows will be apparent approximately 30 days after your procedure.

Never rub the treated area as it will disturb the skin from natural healing.

Once completely healed, always apply a layer of sunscreen SPF 30 up to SPF 50 on your eyebrows when exposed to the sun.  Sun exposure might cause the color pigment to fade away more quickly. When using foundation, be aware when applying to avoid your healed eyebrows. If foundation covers healed brows, your eyebrows will appear lighter.

You can now enjoy your beautiful new temporary eyebrows.  You will simply love your new gorgeous fresh look!
