Microblading - Eyebrow Emroidery

To achieve the best results you will be required to come back for one session 6 weeks later.
Be prepared for the color intensity to be significantly sharper and darker immediately after the procedure. This will subside and become softer as the skin heals. This process can take up to fourteen days.
- Please wear your normal make-up to your enhancement appointment.
- Do not take aspirin or Ibuprofen 2 days prior to and after your enhancement.

- Once the area has healed completely, approximately one week, consider using a waterproof total sunblock when going out in the sun to stop the color fading.
- Strong chemicals or glycolic acid/peels of any kind may cause the pigment to lighten. Always telephone and check with your consultant if in any doubt.
- Do not pick or pull at the treated area as it will result in pigment loss. You will go through three healing phases: 1-heal, 2-peel and 3-fade
- You may notice whiteness or blanching around the area, this is quite normal and will subside within 12 hours. If you find any lymphatic fluid or blood weeping you can gently clean the area with water, blotting gently dry to remove any moisture.

- After the fine scabbing has sloughed away you will see a different hue to the colour implanted.

Since the procedure involves inserting tiny dots of pigment gradually into the skin, making sure there are no harsh edges but a soft and smooth shading effect, your brows will be a bit swollen and 60% dark immediately after the treatment.
The healing process takes 4-6 weeks, during which you need to be extra careful with your new eyebrows.
Here is what you can expect during the healing period:
Day 1 and 2
Your brows are too dark and they look like a block of pigment. Also, redness is present and they might be swollen. You might not be satisfied, but be prepared for this.
Day 3
The first thing you will notice is scabbing. After the ombre powder brows treatment, scabs fall off in one big or a few big pieces.
Day 4 – 10
This period is the most difficult to overcome, Scabs keep falling off, leaving your brows in patches. Your brows are itchy but under no circumstances should you scratch or touch them. Carry on with the aftercare routine and be patent.
Day 10 – 14
Your brows look too light and you must think that the whole process has been unsuccessful. Scabs are not that common anymore. The healing period is almost over.
Day 14 – 21
Your brows are coming back! They are taking their final shape and look much better. However, they might still look a little bit patchy and uneven.
Day 21 – 30
