How does it work?
Many people spend too much time grooming their eyebrows, whether it is waxing, plucking, or threading. This is why it is highly beneficial to consider a procedure known as microblading that is an illusion of the brows you have always wanted. Even though eyebrows tend to change over time, microblading can deliver semipermanent results.
Tiny hair strokes are made using a manual tattoo technique. During this process, pigment is deposited into the outer part of your skin. Since the pigment can fade over time, it is highly recommended that you go in for a touch-up every 1-2 years to keep your results nice.
What can I expect during my treatment?
You can expect up to 2 hours for the microblading process to be completed. Prior to the procedure, eyebrow mapping is completed which is when your technician will draw and measure the outline of your desired brow shape. Numbing cream will then be applied to the area. Your technician will then make tiny strokes to create a brow that is natural-looking.
Even though your technician will apply numbing cream, you can still expect to feel a bit uncomfortable. However, the process is well tolerable. After the procedure has been completed, you must avoid getting your brows wet for at least 10 days. This aftercare process will make washing your hair, and even showering extremely difficult.

The first several days following microblading, you can expect your brows to appear darker and bolder. Scabbing and flaking are expected within 4-5 days following the procedure. However, you should avoid picking the scabs or flakes since it can result in loss of color in those spots.
Additionally, you can expect the entire healing process to be completed within a month since it can take the skin 30 days to rejuvenate itself. You will be required to go in for a touch-up appointment 6 weeks after your first appointment so that your technician can make any needed adjustments.
Risks
