MICROBLADING 

Microblading in San Antonio


What is Microblading? 

Unlike traditional tattooing, microblading consists of machine-less manual technique  where we artfully and strategically deposit pigment along the eyebrows to mimic real hair.  Hair-like stokes are strokes are meticulously placed to create a more natural look, than traditional cosmetic tattooing.
Microblading consists of  two-step process.  Your initial appointment creates the shape and allows us to see how the pigment heals and how much pigment you retain.  A second perfecting session, booked 4-6 weeks later.  The perfecting session completes your look by filling in any areas that healed lighter or to create a fuller brow if desired. 

One common question we are asked is how long microblading lasts.  Depending on your skin type, level of sun exposure, and your lifestyle, your can expect lasting results anywhere from 6 months all the way to 2 years.  Most our our clients schedule their microblading touch-up appointments anywhere between 6 months to 12 months. 

Preparing For Your Microblading Procedure

- One month prior to your microblading service, discontinue Vitamin A or any Retinol products. 
- Schedule any Botox treatments for two (2) weeks before or two (2) weeks after your microblading appointment. 
- Refrain from facials or chemical peels for at least two (2) weeks prior to your appointment.
- Do not tweeze or wax your eyebrows for a least a week prior to your microblading procedure.

Your actual microblading procedure will take anywhere between two and three hours.

During your appointment, we will discuss the treatment, shape and recommended color all prior to starting the procedure. •  

After Your Microblading Procedure

Aftercare is essential in healing and in achieving an optimal result. 

- It is important that you not pick at the microbladed area, otherwise, scarring or loss of color will occur.  Allow scabs to form and allow dry skin to exfoliate naturally.
