CLB - Answering Common Microblading Concerns

Microblading

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at February 7th, 2023

Microblading is a popular and effective cosmetic treatment for those seeking to enhance the look of their eyebrow! The procedure involves using a small blade to create hair-like strokes in the skin, which are then filled with ink to create a natural-looking eyebrow. While microblading is a great solution for those seeking fuller, more defined brows, many people have questions and concerns about the details of the procedure. This article will address some of the most common microblading concerns we often hear from new patients visiting our microblading salon!

Microblading Concerns - What are the Risks?

One of the most common concerns we hear regarding microblading is the risk of infection. While there is a small risk of infection with any cosmetic procedure, the risks can be mitigated by choosing a reputable salon and experienced professional. It's important to ensure that the salon or spa where you get your microblading done follows proper safety protocols, including using sterile equipment and the disposal of needles. Licenses and certifications are displayed. Every salon or studio in Texas offering any form of tattoo-ing should have a tattoo studio license displayed; health inspectors review and evaluate all tattoo studios. There is a risk associated with an allergic reaction to the ink used during the procedure, which is why only using certified professionals is so important.

Does Microblading Hurt?

Many people are concerned about the pain associated with microblading. While some discomfort is normal during the procedure, most people report that the pain is mild and tolerable. If there’s anxiety associated with the procedure, a brow artist can apply a numbing cream to the area to reduce any discomfort. The sensation has been compared to a light scratch or a slight pinch. However, pain thresholds can vary from person to person.

How Long Does Microblading Last?

Another common concern is the longevity of microblading. The results of microblading can last anywhere from 6 months to 3 years, depending on several factors, such as the person's skin type (oily, dry, normal), lifestyle, and how well they keep a maintenance/treatment schedule. Over time, the ink will naturally fade, which means touch-ups will be necessary to maintain the desired look.

Microblading Concerns - Does Microblading Look Natural?

Many people worry that their eyebrows will look unnatural after microblading. When performed by a skilled professional, microblading results should look natural and enhance the presence of the client’s eyebrows. A skilled professional will consider the shape of the person's face and the natural shape of their eyebrows to create a look that complements their features. A seasoned professional will know the exact blade thickness and where to place strokes in order for it to blend with your natural brows.

Is Microblading Safe?

The safety of microblading depends on the salon or spa where the treatment is being performed. Choosing a reputable salon that uses sterile equipment and follows proper safety protocols is the best way to avoid potential risks. Safety should not be a worry when microblading is performed professionally by top-tier talent. To book your microblading appointment with Chic Lash Boutique, click the link!
