what is microblading ?

   Microblading is semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo procedure of manually depositing color pigment beneath the first layer of the skin (the epidermis), using a sterile hand tool called a microblade. Very fine individual hair strokes are created within your natural brow to resemble your own natural eyebrow hairs making the eyebrows look fuller and more defined, but still natural. Microblading is also great for someone who has very little to no brow hair due to conditions such as alopecia, or as a result of chemotherapy, or any other condition that causes hair loss. This means no more spending valuable time in the morning filling in your eyebrows. You can wake up with perfect brows every day

microblading procedure

Microblading treatment is a three–part process usually completed within two appointments.

 

1.Consultation

Prior to the treatment, you will have a personal medical consultation where we will explore your medical history in detail. In order to ensure the correct outcome, we will need to understand what surgery or treatments you have had (or are planned for the future).

We will then talk with you about your desired outcome from the treatment. What exactly do you want to achieve? To change your looks? To replace what has been lost? To feel more confident?

Knowing this will help us to work with you, to develop a solution that meets your needs. In addition to that, we’ll naturally take into account other factors such as your personal style, skin tone and facial features.

During the design phase we will put our make-up artist hat on and literally draw your new brows or eyeliner onto your skin. You will be fully involved in this process. We will be your guide, but you will be the one to approve exactly what everything looks like.

Finally, we will work on your colours. Depending on how natural, subtle or strong you want the result, we will custom blend our colours to perfectly match your requirements. Again, you will be fully involved in this part of the process.

2.Treatment

Using a state of the art microblading tool, tiny precision hair strokes are created by hand, mimicking the natural direction and lengths of your brows. Pigments are then implanted into the channels created by the microblades in the dermal layer of the skin. The sensation is similar to a little scratch but you should not feel any discomfort. As with the permanent makeup treatment the area will look 20-30% darker than the colour you have chosen in consultation, but this will fade within 3-4 days to reveal your chosen colour. The treatment generally takes around 1-2 hours and will leave you with highly defined, ultra-realistic looking brows.
 

3. Touch up

A second appointment is needed 4-12 weeks after your first treatment. This is usually a 15-60 minutes appointment to add more pigment to the brow area. This is because as the area is healing, some parts may not ‘hold’ as well as others and you may have a few patches that need more colour. This is completely normal and everyone heals differently. Whatever the case, we advise you always come back to clinic for your retouch.

Your healed result will tend to look darker in appearance. However, this will soften in a few days, the colour will lighten considerably. You will need to follow a simple aftercare routine which involves basic care of the area and application of a gentle balm. After a few days the colour will gradually settle and increase in a pleasing intensity over the next few weeks.
