Microblading in St Pete FL

Microblading, a technique for eyebrow tattooing, is where an artist manually deposits pigment into the brow area. This creates hair-like strokes that improve fullness and shape. The pigment is applied to the epidermis. It will gradually fade and lighten over time, so it is necessary to replenish the color.

Because microblading will lighten over time, it is often called “semi-permanent”. However, microblading is like a tattoo, so you should treat it as such. The pigment left over from microblading can remain on the skin for an indefinite time

What Should You Expect?

To determine if you’re a good candidate for microblading, and to discuss your desired results, we require an informed consultation. Your initial microblading in St Pete FL may then be scheduled. When booking an appointment, please ensure you book with the correct artist at the correct location, at the desired time and date you are available. The microblading process usually takes about 2 hours.

The brow technician will create a brow shape using as much of the client’s existing eyebrow hairs as possible during your appointment. The technician will not use a template but will design a brow shape specific to the client’s features and bone structure. To ensure symmetry, the technician will then “brow map” both eyebrows to replicate the shape.

Before proceeding, the client will approve the brow shape. A topical numbing cream is then applied to the eyebrows. The client and technician will then decide together on the color. After that, the microblading process begins. After the procedure, all of the necessary tools and items are thrown away.

Is Microblading Worth It?

It all depends on the client’s sensitivity. Although some clients may experience slight discomfort, most clients find the process tolerable. They compared the sensation to a paper cut or rough scratch. An anesthetic gel will then be applied to the skin after the first pass. This will provide more comfort as you move forward with the service.

What Happens Next?

  • The skin may become red, sensitive, or slightly swollen.
  • Some scabbing may occur. Do not pick the skin as it can cause pigment loss.
  • Follow the instructions of your technician for after-care. This will ensure that the final result is successful.
  • The color may initially appear too dark but will gradually fade over the next 4-6 weeks.

Microblading Is Not ideal for:

  • People with oily skin or large pores have a harder time keeping pigment
  • People with permanent makeup from the past
  • People who have used retinoids in the past 4-6 weeks
  • People who have had laser or chemical peels in the past 6 weeks
  • People who had Botox in the past 2 weeks

Eyebrow Microblading Healing

Microblading fully heals at 6-8 weeks, when a touch-up is recommended. It begins immediately after your procedure.

Each person’s skin will heal at a different rate. It depends on many factors, including your:

  • Age
  • Overall health
  • Skin type

Your eyebrow appearance will change over the first 10-14 days. Every day will bring about a change in the color, texture, and definition of your eyebrows.

Different sensations will also be felt on your skin. Your face may initially feel tender, tight, and painful. Itchy, flaky skin will eventually disappear.

Microblading can last for up to 30 months. You will also need to have touch-ups every 12-18 months depending on what look you choose. Every touch-up session requires some healing.
