Microblading is a process of semi-permanent make-up that allows corrections of the eyebrow shape as well as the complete reconstruction of lost or failed brows. In eyebrow microblading, pigments are placed under the top layer of skin using a special blade. There is no machine used, the pigmentation is done manually, which ensures a more natural result.

Anyone who is dissatisfied with the shape or density of their eyebrows now has the option of microblading instead of the daily eyebrow pencil. In contrast to the previously known permanent make-up, microblading looks more natural. The momentum and the course of the eyebrows are individually adjusted and marked by the specialist. Even if the eyebrows are completely missing or larger gaps, scars or thinning are present, you can help with microblading. The eyebrows are completely reconstructed or partially filled.

Unlike the permanent make-up of the eyebrows, the hairs are individually and naturally traced during microblading. The blade of the microblading pen is considerably thinner than the needle used for permanent make-up. This allows more precise and finer hair to be drawn. In addition, since the vibration of the machine is eliminated, the contours of the hair are more precise and therefore more natural than the slightly blurred acting permanent make-up.

Microblading is becoming more and more popular and is already being offered in many beauty studios. It is slightly more expensive than permanent make-up and costs between 300and 500 $ depending on the studio. Any corrections are often extra to pay. Refreshing, which usually takes one to one and a half years, are slightly cheaper than the first intervention.

The micro-drawn hairs last for one to two years. The shelf life depends on the rate of regeneration and the fat content of the skin. In order for the colour to remain in the skin after a skin renewal process – which takes around four weeks – it must be stung below the basal cell layer during pigmentation. Thus, the microblading depth is about 0.8 to 1.4 millimetres. With greasy skin, the durability of the bunny drawing is reduced a little, and the clarity of the lines is more easily lost. Customers with rather greasy skin therefore often need corrections in the microblading studio.

When microblading is done properly, it is virtually painless. Nevertheless, in our salon in Montreal ( West Island) a numbing cream is applied before the and during the treatment to prevent any unpleasant sensations. Immediately after pigmentation, redness or mild swelling is common due to skin irritation. These usually disappear after a few hours.
