What is Microblading?

Microblading is a modification of permanent (tattoo) makeup. It uses a technique that is more superficial and creates much finer, hair-like strokes than traditional tattooing.

Because the treatment is more superficial, and the ink is more easily broken down by the body, the treatment is only semi-permanent, lasting one to two years.

How Microblading Works

Featured

1. Initial Consultation

Our aesthetician will meet with you to discuss your concerns and help you decide on the optimal thickness, shape and colour for your eyebrows. She will also review your medical history to make sure you are a good candidate for microblading and do a patch test for allergies.

2. Drawing the Shape and Choosing the Colour

At the next appointment, once our aesthetician has a good idea of what it is you are looking for, she will draw the shape of your new eyebrows on your face to compliment your facial features. She will also help you decide on the best colour to compliment your eye colour and skin tone.

3. Topical Anaesthetic

The aesthician will apply a numbing cream to the area and let you sit for half an hour in order for it to take effect.

4. Microblading

The aesthetician uses a pen-like tool that has micro-needles at the tip to create very fine, superficial scratches in the skin. The surface is then covered with ink, which penetrates the skin, creating very fine, hair-like lines.

This normally takes 1 - 2 hours. Throughout the process, she will stop periodically to make sure you are comfortable.

5. Touch-Up Visit

After six weeks to three months, the area will have healed and the final results will be visible. You will return to the Clinic for a follow-up visit to make sure you are happy with the results and to touch up any areas that may require it.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Is microblading safe?

Microblading is safe, if performed using proper sterile technique. As we are a medical Clinic supervised by Dr. Hegmann, we conform to medical standards of cleanliness. All tips and ink used are single-use and disposable. All other tools and surfaces are properly cleaned and sterilized following standard medical protocol.

+ Does it hurt?

Before the treatment, we apply a topical numbing cream. This makes the treatment virtually painless. However, you may feel a slight pulling or scratching sensation.

+ What will I look like after the procedure?

Immediately after the procedure, the treated skin will be red and may be a little swollen. Your eyebrows will appear much darker than normal, but will lighten 50-75% over the next two weeks as the area heals and some of the ink is released.

**It is important to read and follow all aftercare instructions to ensure an optimal result.

+ How long does microblading last? Is it permanent?

Microblading lasts, on average one to three years, depending on how quickly your body breaks down or releases the ink. After about one to two years, you may notice it is fading and you may want to come in for a touch up.

+ Will my eyebrows look worse when the microblading wears off?

No. Your eyebrows will not look worse if you decide not to continue with microblading. Over time, the ink will fade and you may wish to return to our Clinic for a touch up. If not, your eyebrows will simply return to their previous appearance.

+ Will it look unnatural?

This depends on the skill of the aesthetician. Our aesthetician has over ten years of experience in permanent makeup. She will take the time to consult with you, make recommendations, and draw the new shape on your face to make sure you are happy with it before any work is done. She will also stop periodically during the treatment to show you the results so far and make sure you are happy with them.

When properly done, microblading will look completely natural and enhance your complexion and the shape of your face. People will notice how good you look, but nobody will be able to guess what you've done.

+ How much does it cost?

The cost of microblading at our Clinic is $550.00. This price includes the initial consultation, the treatment, and a follow-up appointment 2 weeks after your treatment for a touch up, and to ensure you are happy with the results and have no further questions or concerns.
