Overview
Microblading places pigment with fine hair-like strokes. It is a form of cosmetic tattooing, not a drawing that lasts forever.
What concerns it may be used for
It may be considered for shape and sparse areas after a patch of skin and brow mapping.
How it generally works
Strokes are placed into the superficial skin. Healing and aftercare change the colour.
Who may be considered
People considering this service need an in-person or clinic assessment. Medical history, medicines, skin type and the specific concern all affect whether it is appropriate.
Safety and clinical assessment
Pigment can blur or shift. People with certain skin types or keloid history need extra caution. Cosmetic procedures carry risks. A consultation should cover indications, risks, benefits, alternatives, realistic expectations, recovery and cost. Suitability, treatment parameters and expected outcomes vary by skin type, concern and clinical assessment. Individual results vary.
Aftercare
Keep the area clean as instructed. Avoid picking scabs. The clinic will say when to wet the area.
