It can be frustrating trying to maintain your eyebrows. Drawing your eyebrows on every morning or trying to determine the right amount of makeup can be tedious and time-consuming. For some, it is exhausting to maintain the ideal look. For others, their eyebrows may not grow enough to achieve their desired look. Fortunately, microblading is a minimally invasive procedure that can help you achieve the look you have always wanted. Learn more about microblading Oceanside and consider whether the process is right for you.

What Is Microblading?

Microblading is a cosmetic procedure designed to give you fuller, natural-looking, semi-permanent eyebrows. Microblading uses a small, handheld needle that resembles a small blade. The process is carried out by an artist that specializes in cosmetic microblading. The artist uses the microblade to hand draw every individual hair, placing the pigment in the skin.

Is Microblading Right for Me?

If you are tired of maintaining your eyebrows, drawing them on each morning with makeup, or are unhappy with their appearance, then microblading may be the correct procedure for you. Microblading can minimize the amount of work you do to maintain your eyebrows and provide you with a look you may not have thought possible.

To determine if you are a good candidate for microblading Oceanside, schedule a consultation with a professional. A specialist will discuss your lifestyle and skincare routine with you and assess if your skin is suitable for the microblading process.

What Does the Microblading Process Involve?

Microblading is typically completed in one to two sessions. The first session will begin with a conversation with your specialist to discuss your ideal look. Your specialist will consider whether you want thinner, more subtle eyebrows or bolder, fuller eyebrows so that you walk out with your preferred look.

After the consultation, we will numb your eyebrows with a local anesthetic to make the procedure comfortable for you. The artist will then sketch a rough outline of your new eyebrows to match the symmetry and shape of your face.

Once the anesthetic has fully set in, the artist will begin the microblading process, carefully drawing each hair for the look that fits you. This process usually takes about an hour. After a few weeks, you should come back for a touch-up, where the artist will inspect the pigments of your eyebrows and make any necessary adjustments.

How Long Does Microblading Last?

Your eyebrow lines are expected to fade over time. The fading process will be different for everyone, depending on skin type, sun exposure and your body’s natural processes. However, because microblading is precise and uses less ink than other procedures, like tattooing, the procedure can easily be completed again without compromising your appearance. A touch-up appointment is usually recommended a year after the initial procedure.

Microbladed brows typically take 6 weeks to fully heal. Within the first week the pigment will appear much darker, and your eyebrows will look very bold. Do not worry! This is part of the healing process and it means that you are healing properly. After the first week the eyebrows will begin to get lighter, as by now the scabbing should be taking place. This is also normal! Around week 2, most of the scabbing should be done, and you will begin to see your full and natural eyebrow shape come through. Let it heal naturally, and only begin to wash your eyebrows with a mild foamy anti-bacterial soap after 14 days.

There should be absolutely NO picking at your eyebrows for the first 10 days. The first 10 days are the most crucial for having healthy healed eyebrows. Let the epithelial crust and natural scabbing occur on its own. After the first two weeks, you are allowed to begin washing them again. Try to keep the area as dry as possible in the first 10 days. Do not swim in fresh, salt, or chlorinated pool water for at least 2-4 weeks following your procedure. Limit sun exposure for 14 days following the procedure.
