What Are the Benefits of Microblading?
Microblading is an ideal option for patients near Atlanta, GA who have sparse or disproportionate eyebrows. If you are tired of sketching in your eyebrows every morning, microblading can offer several advantages, including:
- Quick, simple treatment
- Preserves time and effort
- Balances and highlights your natural appearance
- Increases your self-confidence
Can I Get Microblading?
A microblading treatment is a good choice if you want a more defined or fuller shape to your brows that last a long time and looks natural. If you have weak eyebrows that need to appear thicker or have specific areas that you wish to fill in, microblading could be a good option for you. Thin eyebrows or bald spots can be caused by genetics, surgical scars, overplucking, injuries, nutritional deficiencies, and aging. Unlike cosmetic tattooing for eyebrows, microblading provides natural-looking results with full coverage or fills in small areas of the eyebrows. Microblading can also be used if you want to add a slight curve to your brow for more shape. You should be in overall good health, should not be pregnant, and shouldn't have severe diabetes to be a good candidate for microblading.
How Does Microblading Work?
During your initial consultation with Dr. Mang, he will examine the appearance of your brows. After discussing your concerns and goals, a personalized treatment plan will be created for your microblading session. The procedure can be performed in our minor procedures room with a numbing cream or local anesthesia to reduce any discomfort. Based on your treatment plan, the microblading process can take anywhere from around 1 – 3 hours. At the beginning of your procedure, your natural eyebrows will be lightly combed and trimmed. From there, we will shade your eyebrows with a cosmetic pen, which will act as a border for where the microblading will be performed. Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery selects the highest quality of cosmetic inks to create thin, natural-looking strokes that mimic individual hair follicles for great, realistic results.
What Can I Expect After My Microblading Treatment?
You can leave the office as soon as your microblading session is complete and resume all activities. You may have some redness in and around your brows, but this should go away in 1 – 2 hours. Your eyebrows will look darker right after your treatment, but they should lighten to your desired color after about two weeks. Dr. Mang recommends that you schedule a follow-up session around one month after your first treatment to finalize and touch-up your eyebrows. Microblading results usually last around 1 – 2 years, but treatments can be done as needed to maintain your look.
Microblading FAQ
Is microblading painful?
Some discomfort can be experienced during a microblading procedure; however, most patients don't find it painful. To help keep you more comfortable, before we begin, we will apply a topical anesthetic to your eyebrows.
Is a microblading procedure safe?
Yes, it can be very safe when performed by experienced professionals like the highly-trained members of our team at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery. With hospital-grade sterilization, single-use microblades, and stringent safety protocols, the chances for infection or complication are small.
How long does a microblading session take?
The initial treatment session is typically longer — at about 1 – 3 hours. After you have healed, you will come in for a check-up to see how you've healed and how it looks. If a touch-up is needed to achieve the look you want, it is usually quicker at about an hour.
How long does microblading last?
Most patients can expect their results to last up to three years before a touch-up may be recommended to refresh your look.
How should I prepare for microblading?
Before your microblading session, we advise that you think about what color and shape you wish to have with your eyebrows. Having a picture for reference would be useful. If you want to fill in your eyebrows before your treatment you can — in fact, a photo will give us your favored shape; however, you should not have your eyebrows shaped, tinted, waxed, or threaded within the three days prior to your treatment. We additionally request that you don't receive BOTOX® for a minimum of two weeks ahead of your treatment so we can create symmetrical brows. Our team could give you further ideas to get ready for your treatment at the time of your initial consultation.
How can I make my outcomes last longer?
The results you achieve will generally last up to two years. To maximize your outcomes, there are steps you can take. Since exposure from the sun can result in dulling and discoloration, we advocate that you utilize a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses for safety. Along with that, exfoliation treatments and face peels that employ Retin-A and glycolic acid could lessen the coloring of your brows, so these treatments must not be done on the targeted locations.
