Just as painters invest time in sanding, filling holes, smoothing edges, and applying the right primer for impeccable results, a similar approach applies to microblading. Proper preparation is key to achieving outstanding outcomes.
A prime canvas is essential. Ensure that your eyebrow area is healthy, strong, non-sensitive, and non-irritated before starting.
Here are preparatory steps to follow BEFORE your procedure:
- Avoid plucking, tweezing, waxing, or undergoing electrolysis in the eyebrow area one week before your microblading appointment.
- Refrain from tanning and ensure your face is not sunburned two weeks prior to the session.
- Do not have any facial treatments for two weeks before your appointment.
- Avoid exercising on the day of the procedure.
- Do not receive Botox treatments three weeks prior to your appointment.
- Avoid taking fish oil or vitamin E one week before the procedure as they act as natural blood thinners.
- Do not wax or tint your eyebrows three days prior to the procedure.
To minimize excessive bleeding and poor color deposition:
- Avoid alcohol 24-48 hours before your session.
- Do not drink coffee on the day of the procedure.
- Avoid Aspirin or Ibuprofen as they can thin your blood.
