  •  Do not have any type of facial 2 weeks prior to the procedure.
  •  Do not work out the day of the procedure.

In order to avoid excessive bleeding and poor color deposit

  •  Do not drink alcohol 24-48 hours before your tattoo
  •  Do not consume coffee before your procedure

Aftercare

Wash your hands thoroughly before touching the tattooed area.

Day 1:

Gently blot the area with a clean tissue to absorb excess lymph fluid. Do this every 5 minutes for the full day until the oozing has stopped. Removing this fluid prevents hardening of the lymphatic fluids.

Days 1-7:

Wash daily to remove bacteria, build up of product and oils, and dead skin. (Don’t worry, THIS DOES NOT REMOVE THE PIGMENT!)

Gently wash your eyebrows each morning and night with water and an antibacterial soap like Dial Soap, Cetaphil, or Neutrogena. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to gently cleanse the eyebrows. Rub the area in a smooth motion for 10 seconds and rinse with water ensuring that all soap is rinsed away. To dry, gently pat with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA), or any exfoliants.

Days 1-7 Moisturize:

Apply a rice grain amount of aftercare ointment with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area. Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The ointment should be barely noticeable on the skin. NEVER put the ointment on a wet or damp tattoo.

ONCE HEALED

  • Exposure to the sun over time can cause fading and discoloration of the pigment. Once completely healed, you may apply sunscreen on the treated area. Wear large sunglasses and a hat for further protection. Rinse and dry the area thoroughly when in contact with chlorine.
  • Glycolic Acid, Retin-A, face peels, and exfoliation must be kept away from the tattooed area as continued use could lighten the pigment.
  • If you are having laser resurfacing or laser hair removal after your tattoo has healed, please inform the laser technician.  Laser procedures may darken, lighten, or discolor the tattooed area

Contemplating a Refresh?

Schedule a Touch-Up

Microblading

8 week touch up
On this Perfecting session, the Artist will assess the healed eyebrows and add pigment/strokes in the areas where it didn’t set properly. On this session, we will be able to make any modifications if needed.

Microblading

1 year touch up
Microblading is a semi-permanent process, which means that it will completely fade after 2-3 years. However, if you want your eyebrows to last longer, you should schedule an appointment every 12 months. Those treatments will refresh your eyebrows and postpone fading. Basically, it is advisable to schedule a touch-up appointment as soon as you notice your brows are starting to fade. If you are satisfied with the current shape, you will just need to add more color. In case you are not, you can ask about reshaping your brows.

Microblading FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions
  • Patients with Diabetes, Glaucoma, bleeding disorders, and in general, people with any sort of illness which may cause difficulties during the healing process.
  • People who are easily prone to hyper-pigmentation.
  • People that are either taking a medication or have an illness that would compromise the immune system.
  • People who consistently use bed tanning.
  • Any person under control for any existing medical condition. You MUST consult with your doctor and obtain their approval before considering any kind of permanent makeup treatment.
Microblading is a semi-permanent brow tattoo performed with a small handheld tool, utilizing a feather stroke technique to create the appearance of fuller eyebrows or enhance the natural features of the face. Microblading is a softer, more subtle cosmetic tattoo than some older methods. Body tattoos use ink, while cosmetic tattoo procedures involve pigments. These pigments are designed to gently fade over time. Fading is desired, as it allows the artist to make changes to the color and shape over the years as the client’s natural coloration and facial changes occur.
The treatment is considered semi-permanent and will fade over time. Touch-ups are recommended every 1-2 years to maintain shape, color, and detail. How often depends on a number of factors including:
  • Skin type (oily skin fades faster)
  • Pigment color used (lighter colors fade faster)
  • Sun exposure (can cause fading and discoloration of the pigment over time)
  • Use of daily anti-aging products e.g.- (Tretinoin (Retin-A) & Alpha Hydroxy). These products increase your cell turnover rate and will shorten the life of your cosmetic tattoo
We do all that we can to ensure that the process is as comfortable as possible. Before the Microblading process begins, a topical anesthetic is applied to the area to minimize discomfort, followed by a liquid anesthetic during the procedure. Some clients may feel a slight discomfort, but it’s relatively pain free for most people. (PLEASE NOTE that if you are a frequent smoker, or have your appointment during your menstrual cycle, the pain level could be intensified.)
Two hours and a half on average. During your appointment, we will consult with you the entire time ensuring we are on the same page. Much of the time is spent measuring and drawing on a symmetrical set of brows and agreeing on your perfect shape and color. The actual procedure itself takes around 30 minutes to an hour. The touch-up appointment will take about an hour.
You must avoid working out for 7 days following your microblading appointment. Light exercising is allowed (minimal sweating), but you must clean the tattooed area with lukewarm water as soon as you are done exercising. The salt in sweat will fade the pigment very quickly and give poor results.

As a precaution to avoid any complications, we do not perform cosmetic tattooing on pregnant women.

To ensure the highest quality of safety, all of our tools are one time use only. ALL blades, hand tools, wipes, and any other product used during the procedure are disposed of as biohazardous waste after each appointment, giving each client peace of mind.

Immediately following your procedure, the tattooed area will appear to be darker, bolder in color, and more sharply defined. This will last 3-4 days. Do not panic! It is normal. Swelling and redness is minimal with most clients, and will disappear within 24-48 hours. In some cases, it may last around the eyebrow area for up to 3 days, but will not prevent working or socializing. The treated area may feel a bit like a sunburn afterwards, but there should only be minimal discomfort. The complete healing process takes about 6-8 weeks, at which time the true color of the tattoo is evident. During this process, your tattoo will soften and lighten. Be patient, even if you think too much color has been lost, as your skin is still regenerating and naturally exfoliating. Wait at least 6 weeks to see the true color, as it seems to take on new strength, and it is only after 6 weeks that your touch-up/adjustment can be done. Keep in mind that microbladed brows heal up to 30% softer than the initial color. Please note that final results can not be guaranteed as each unique skin type will hold pigments differently and break down at different rates. The tattooed hair strokes tend to have a more crisp look once healed on dry skin compared to more blurry strokes on oily skin. We will re-evaluate how your skin has received the pigment at your touch-up appointment and make any changes necessary. Healed results will vary with each individual client and using a pencil or powder may still be needed. Additional sessions (charged accordingly) may be required to obtain optimal results.
