Caring for your skin after microblading is similar to taking care of the skin after getting a tattoo. The pigment around an affected area may look dark, and the skin underneath may be red.
As such, it’s highly recommended that you use a wet cotton swab that has been dipped in sterilized water to run over the affected area. This will help to remove excess dyes and debris from your eyebrows. It’s equally important that you keep the affected area sterile. It will take up to 14 days to heal. The pigment will fade and go back to its original skin tone color. Here are some other microblading aftercare tips to consider.
Healing Process
Here are some tips to consider when it comes to the healing process, which, as mentioned above, will take anywhere from 7-14 days.
- Avoid the possibility of picking at or tugging scabs.
- Do not scratch the eyebrow area, as it may feel itchy for the first couple of days.
- Avoid swimming pools and saunas and any activity that can cause excessive sweating.
- Ensure that your hair is away from your eyebrow line.
- Apply medicated cream as instructed by your microblading specialist.
- Do not get the affected area wet for the first seven days. This entails keeping it dry even when you shower.
- Avoid using makeup for at least seven days. This gives your pigment a chance to settle in over the affected area.
Microblading Aftercare Maintenance Tips
Once your skin has healed, you’ll want to practice your due diligence when it comes to protecting the affected area. Most experts proclaim that you should get a ‘touch-up” at least once per year. Like similar cosmetic procedures like eyebrow tattooing, it can fade while permanent, without proper maintenance procedures. Therefore, ensure that you use sunscreen to minimize fading.
Complications
Paying attention to potential complications is an essential aspect of microblading aftercare. It’s important to note that there is a slight chance that you may experience possible complications such as skin irritation and an allergic reaction. It’s also worth noting that some clients experience severe pain for the first few days, so this is nothing to be alarmed about.
However, if the area becomes raised and puffy, you’ll need to visit the specialist. Thus, make sure you follow the instruction from your microblading specialist and be sure to choose the licensed, experienced person for your microblading procedure.
