MICROBLADING FAQ
MICROBLADING FAQ
How long does microblading last?
Depending on each individual's skin type, skin texture, and lifestyle, microblading can last anywhere between 1-3 years. Everyone's skin type is different and microblading tends to fade much faster on someone with oilier skin. The dryer the skin, the longer the microblading will last. Overexposure to sun and antiaging skincare products may also make your eyebrows fade faster. Some people may require occasional touch ups to keep their brows looking fresh and full. Also, for clients that choose a softer look and lighter color shade initially or those who did not follow the aftercare instructions properly may require more frequent touch ups.
Can you guarantee results?
Microblading is different for everyone, but cannot be guaranteed as it is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure. We use quality products and the best techniques therefore generally creating amazing results, however due to different skin types, healing, or lack of aftercare, results may vary. Each person heals differently, which is why we encourage a touch up to help ensure longer lasting brows. *We do not offer a refund since we carry out the service at a cost to us.
Semi-permanent vs permanent?
Technically, semi-permanent micro-pigmentation is considered permanent because the color is implanted into the upper dermal layer of the skin and cannot be washed off. However, the pigment is implanted more superficially and does not go as deep into the dermis as a traditional tattoo would resulting in it fading over time. Traditional tattooing implants pigment at least 7 layers deep into the skin, making it last much longer and is also more damaging to the skin. Microblading pigment is only implanted 3 layers deep into the skin, and in very fine lines which fade evenly over time.
