How Is Microblading Done?

Eyebrows are something that can alter your appearance for better or worse. This is typically why any makeup job can involve a large portion manipulating the eyebrows in some fashion. Because of this, it can take a lot of work maintaining proper eyebrow upkeep. In this article, we will go over what microblading is, how the procedure is performed, and some of the benefits of it.

What Is Microblading?

Microblading is essentially the newest way to get semi-permanent makeup to simulate natural looking eyebrows. It is a superior method to eyebrow tattooing because it utilizes a technique that offers a much more natural looking appearance. The procedure’s results can last anywhere from one to two years depending on various factors including how well the results are maintained, skin type, and sun exposure.

How Is the Procedure Done?

Typically, you are going to require two to three appointments in order to finish the procedure entirely. When it comes to the initial application, the color that you end up using is always going to appear darker than it will turn out to be. The color will naturally fade as it settles to allow for a much more natural looking application. The procedure requires only anesthetic cream applied to the eyebrow area and the technician utilizes the microblading technique in order to inject the ink on the surface level of your skin. Because the pigment is not injected deeper into deeper layers of your skin, it fades naturally and offers a much more natural appearance overall.

Benefits of Microblading:

1. Semi-Permanent

One of the main reasons a lot of people invest in this new treatment is because it offers semi-permanent results that you can enjoy for a long time. Typically, you can get anywhere from 1 to 2 years out of the procedure on average which is going to be enough for most. The results will vary based on your skin type, how you care for your skin, and how much exposure to sunlight you get.

2. No Maintenance

While you will be better off taking good care of your skin post-treatment, it is going to eliminate a lot of the tedious maintenance that you would normally have to put into your typical makeup routine. Having a no maintenance option makes caring for your eyebrows much easier and it completely eliminates having to worry about doing your eyebrows in the morning which can save you a lot of time each day.

3. No Pain

While pain is purely subjective, you are not necessarily going to have to worry about suffering through a painful procedure no matter what. This is because the anesthetic cream is used prior to conducting the procedure which will allow you to experience all of the benefits of microblading without having to suffer from any sort of pain.

4. Natural Looking

Another benefit that you are going to be able to get from investing in this procedure over the other options is the ability to get natural looking results rather than the unnatural results that you might get from alternative treatments.

Overall, there are a lot of different reasons you might consider investing in microblading. Not only is it a safe option that is going to offer long-lasting results, it is also a relatively painless procedure that can truly improve the overall look of your eyebrows day in and day out. It is something that is worth looking into if you are looking for great looking results from your eyebrows. By investing in microblading, you will be able to eliminate the need to regularly maintain your eyebrows for a long time.
