microblading

Microblading/3D Brows has been a very popular and successful procedure in Asia and Europe for many years. It is a process where mini-hair like strokes are made in the eyebrow creating asolution to beautiful, natural looking brows that last up to 2yrs!

Immediately after treatment, the color will appear darker then it will eventually be. This is because the pigment takes around seven days to enter the deeper layers of the skin. After 7-10 days, exfoliation takes place. The top layer of the skin peels off, leaving a softer, lighter color below. The result is a natural looking enhancement. As the treated area is settling down, itching may occur. This is a good sign as it means the skin is healing.

Permanent makeup is NOT recommended for any clients who are or have

  • Diabetic
  • Undergoing Chemotherapy (consult your doctor)
  • Viral infections and/or diseases
  • Epilepsy
  • A Pacemaker or major heart problems
  • Had an Organ transplant
  • Skin irritations or Psoriasis near the treated area (rashes, sunburn, acne, etc.)
  • Sick (cold, flu, etc.)
  • Had Botox in the past 2 months
  • Used Accutane in the past year

Suggestions for Before Microblading 3 “D” Brow Procedure

  • Botox should be given 3 weeks prior or 3 weeks after this procedure.
  • No chemical peels 60 days before or 60 days after (brows will peel quicker due to chemicals traveling under the skin).
  • No Retinols/Retin-A’s, or other anti-aging creams or serums containing acids as these will fade prematurely.
  • Do Not work out the day of the procedure.
  • Do not tan or have a sunburned face.
  • Do Not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Ibuprofen 24 hours before procedure.
  • No waxing or tinting 3 days before.

Eyebrow After Care

Just a side note: We aim for perfection but everyone’s skin is different and will react differently to the procedure of Semi-Permanent 3D Brows. Some skin will heal faster than others, some skin will retain the pigment longer, all skin is aging, some of us will be harder on our skin than others; swimming, tanning and weather all have a negative effect on our skin. And, this is a big AND, nobody’s eyebrows are exactly the same. Our goal is to make them match as closely as possible but nature does play a role in the contour of our brows.

  • On the first day of the procedure gently dab brows with cotton rounds dipped in distilled water followed by a thin layer of the Bepanthen cream given every hour.
  • Days 2 - 6 after the procedure, apply a dab of the cream given on the brows 3 - 6 times a day...never rush the healing process! Do Not scrub, rub or pick at the epithelial rust that forms. Allow it to flake off by itself. If it is removed before it is ready the pigment underneath it can be pulled out.
  • Do not get the brows wet during the healing process for 14 days. Do not put anything (water, make-up, lotions etc.) but the cream given on the brows for 14 days or until healed.
  • Do not sweat for 5 days - this is a hard one, but body heat expands the pores. Sweat has salt and will prematurely fade, blur or cause the pigment not to take at all.
  • Stay out of the sun for two weeks. Then be sure to use sunblock on the healed brows to prevent fading.
  • Do not use any Retin-A or Glycol Acids in the brow area during or after the healing.
  • Do not use a tanning bed for a month...preferably, never!
  • It is recommended that you apply vaseline to treated areas prior to swimming even after healed to prevent the chlorine water/salt water from penetrating the area.
  • Only touch the treated areas with squeaky clean hands during the healing process.
  • Try not to sleep on your face for the next 10 days.
