microblading care
Following these care instructions will help you achieve beautiful, long-lasting results.
Pre-care:
Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications 24 hours before the appointment to reduce bleeding.
Discontinue retinol, AHA, and exfoliants on the brow area one week before to prevent skin sensitivity.
Do not tint or wax your brows at least one week prior.
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds to prevent skin irritation.
Inform your technician of any medical conditions, allergies, or previous eyebrow treatments.
Aftercare:
Keep the brow area dry for the first 24 hours after microblading.
Avoid water including swimming, saunas, and excessive sweating for the first week to prevent pigment loss.
Do not pick or scratch the treated area to avoid scarring and pigment loss.
Avoid direct sunlight and wear sunscreen on the brows once healed to prevent fading.
Attend follow-up appointments as scheduled for touch-ups and to ensure the best results.
What to expect?
After Microblading, expect your brows to darken slightly for a few days before lightening within a week. We will discuss aftercare during your visit! Limit exercise and sweating for a week to prevent pigment loss. Avoid all Alpha Hydroxy acid products, retinoids, and exfoliating treatments for two weeks prior and after treatment. Refrain from chemical/laser peels or Botox for six weeks before Microblading. These precautions optimize your results.
**The semi- permanent hair strokes fade gradually over the course of 12-18 months. Touch-ups every 7-9 months are recommended to keep brows looking fresh and consistent**
