Pre-Care for Microblading

If you use brow makeup please be sure that you have not scarred or irritated the skin from this daily process. We recommend letting the skin "breathe" as much as possible for at least 30-days prior to your appointment, which means no makeup on your brows as much as possible.  Brow Makeup, especially for those who have little to no eyebrow hair who drawing their brows on daily, WILL impact the epidermal layer of the skin and cause excessive fading if proper protocol is not taken. 


The skin must be free of all irritations including ingrown hairs, blemishes, eczema, and psoriasis.
Absolutely no anti-acne or anti-aging products on the skin for 30-days prior to application.
Absolutely no alcohol or caffeine 24-hours before application.
Do not exercise for 24-hours before application.
No intentional tanning 4-weeks prior to application.
If you get a sunburn on your face, you must allow at least 4-weeks for it to heal.
Do not take Aspirin, Advil, Aleeve, Niacin, Vitamin E or Ibuprofen 1-week before application.
Do not take fish oil for 2-weeks prior to application.
No brow waxing or tinting one week before application.
(Let your brow hair grow out for as long as you can stand it!)
No Botox for at minimum of 3-weeks prior to your application and 3 weeks after.
No chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or facials for 4-weeks prior to application.
No Accutane for 1-year prior to application.
No Antibiotic use for 30 days prior to appointment.

 You will be more sensitive during the application if you have fibromyalgia or are on your menstrual cycle.

If you have had permanent makeup done in the past, you must email a photo of your brows to determine your candidacy.

 

Aftercare for Microblading

Healing time is a standard 7-10 days.
Keep brows dry & no washing for 24 - 48 hrs 
You will be supplied with a light ointment to apply to the brow each day.
Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate off. Picking can cause scarring.
Exfoliation of the top layer of the brow in normal from day 4-7.
New skin forming causes the area to appear lighter at first during this period of time. 
Do not rub, pick at or scratch the area.

Absolutely no makeup, skincare products, or sunscreen on treated area for two weeks.
Avoid brow makeup for 14 days after application.
Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for 4 weeks after application.
Absolutely no excessive sweating (from work/exercise) for 7-10 days while healing.
No facials, chemical treatments, and/or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks after.
Avoid sleeping on your face for the first 2 weeks to protect area.
Avoid washing your face directly in the shower head for 2 weeks to protect area.

Eyebrows will appear darker and bolder due to natural scabbing and healing for the first two weeks. Most feel comfortable going about their daily lives and not taking time off from work during this period.

Excessive fading may occur in sensitive skin types and for reasons we can not forsee. Multiple sessions may be necessary to determine causes of fading and to find the best approach for your skin.
