Microblading is the process of creating a semi-permanent, cosmetic tattoo by inserting pigment into the superficial layers of the skin. Because the pigment is only inserted superficially, it typically fades off gradually as the skin renews. Microblading results typically last 1-2 years, depending on the skin type and lifestyle of the client.

​

The microblading method practiced at Perfect Brows is known as nanoblading. Nanoblading is an advanced technique that produces realistic looking results by using a very thin microblade capable of creating cuts approximately the diameter of real hair in the skin.

Most clients report minimal discomfort during the microblading procedure. A topical numbing cream is applied before the process begins to help manage any pain. The sensation is often described as a slight scratching or pressure.

Although microblading is a fantastic procedure for the majority of people, there are still individuals who it's not suited for, such as:

​

• Individuals prone to keloids, super thin skin, Rosacea or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

• Individuals with transmittable blood diseases such as HIV or Hepatitis.

• Individuals that have eczema, shingles, rashes, acne or any other skin condition near the eyebrows.

• Anyone undergoing active chemotherapy.

• Individuals on Accutane, or who have been on Accutane in the last 6 months.

• Individuals who are taking blood-thinning medications.

• Clients who have recently received filler in the eyebrow area. It is recommended that the client wait at least 2 weeks to get their eyebrows microbladed after being administered any kind of toxin or injectable.

• Individuals with oily skin. Those with very oily skin and large pores are not good candidates for microblading, as the natural oils in their skin may push the pigment out during the healing process.

• Individuals under 18 years of age, unless they provide a letter of consent from a parent of guardian.

• Individuals who are pregnant or nursing.

• Individuals with dark pre-existing eyebrow tattoos.

Cosmetic tattoo treatments are considered semi-permanent and will not wash off, however, they will fade over time and may need to be refreshed every 1-2 years.

The longevity of a client's microblading results depends on a number of factors, including; the pigment used (lighter colors fade faster), lifestyle (sweat, sun exposure) and if any chemical or physical exfoliation is performed on the treated areas. Please note that final results CAN NOT be guaranteed as each unique skin type will hold pigments differently and wear away at different rates.

If you have an ideal shape in mind, bring a few reference photos with you to your appointment. You may fill in your eyebrows as you normally would so your artist can take into consideration the shape you desire.

​

Do not remove any hairs at least 4 weeks prior to your appointment. The more hair, the better! If there are any stray hairs that fall outside of our final shape, your artist will remove them.

​

Clients are required to avoid any blood thinning medication for a minimum of 72 hours prior to their appointment.

​

Do not drink any alcohol the night before and day of your appointment and limit the amount of caffeine you consume.

​

If you have been on prescription Accutane in the past, you MUST wait at least one year before considering this procedure.

If your plans change and you're unable to attend your microblading appointment, please let your artist know as soon as possible!

​

If you cancel or attempt to reschedule your appoint less than 48 hours before the scheduled time, your deposit will be withheld and it will not be applied to your next visit should you choose to reschedule.

If you've had your eyebrows microbladed or tattooed before, you may still be a good candidate for our services..

In order to establish whether or not you're eligible to become a client at Perfect Brows Boutique, you must text a photo of your brows with no make-up and no filter to (726) 205-8180.

In spite of the fact that your eyebrows have been microbladed or tattooed by another artist, you will need to book as a new client at Perfect Brows.

​

This is because:

​

• You will be a new client to us, so you'll need to book as a new client.

• We are unable to touch-up another artists work.

• We likely use pigments with a different formula than your initial artist used.

• We likely use a different hair stroke pattern to the one your initial artist created.

• We will likely map a new shape for you, or make changes or adjustments to your old shape.

Before booking your appointment you must text a photo of your brows with no make-up and no filter to (726) 205-8180 so we can make sure you're a good candidate for our services.

The microblading process typically takes 2-3 hours, including a consultation and numbing time.

The healing process can take up to 6 weeks for the results to fully heal and settle in. During the first 2 weeks we suggest staying out of direct sun, working out (sweating), and avoid getting your brows wet.

Your brows may appear darker than desired immediately after the first session and during the healing process as scabbing occurs. But they will lighten as they heal and blend with your natural brow hairs.

As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks and side effects such as redness, swelling, or infection. It is important to follow all aftercare instructions provided by your microblading artist.

Yes! You can discuss your desired shape and thickness with your microblading artist before the procedure to ensure you achieve your desired look.

Special aftercare instructions may include avoiding water/sweat on the eyebrows for the first 2 weeks and applying ointment to aid in healing.
