What makes a face expressive and can radically transform it? True, we are talking about eyebrows. Their shape and thickness can significantly change the expression on the face, make it attractive, kind or evil, sad or joyful. But fuzzy or groomed eyebrows can ruin the impression of even the most beautiful eyes or the right nose. There are many ways to emphasize or change natural lines. For example, microblading eyebrows. What is this technology and who is it suitable for?
A worthy alternative to tattooing
A few years ago, tattooing, or permanent makeup, was incredibly widespread and popular. This is a technology for applying coloring pigment under the skin, an alternative to high-grade tattoos. However, special needles and machines are used for tattooing, due to which the paint was applied to the optimum depth for the skin of the face. Such a long-term makeup lasted for several years, after which it could be done again. However, tattooing had some drawbacks. This is primarily a long healing period, the pain of the procedure. Not so long ago, many salons began to offer their customers microblading eyebrows. What is this procedure? It got its name from the English Microblading - "micro-blade." And indeed, we are talking about the most microscopic technologies. The paint is applied under the skin with very thin needles by hand. The master draws each hair or performs light shading, having the ability to control his movements throughout the process. Thanks to such a detailed execution, it is almost impossible to notice microblading. Eyebrows look natural even from a distance of two steps.
Preparation for the procedure
Before correction, the master usually asks to grow natural eyebrows, for this it is enough for two weeks not to pluck out the eyebrows and not to use any means to remove excess hair. Microblading eyebrows in St. Petersburg and other major cities offer many beauty salons. Make an appointment in advance at your favorite institution and get preliminary recommendations from a specialist. The procedure begins with the application of an anesthetic, most often in the form of a gel. At this time, you can accurately select the appropriate shape, its master draws with a cosmetic pencil, taking into account the wishes of the client. After that, the desired color is selected, and the pigment is injected under the skin using the thinnest disposable needle. The execution time of the procedure is from 40 minutes to 2 hours, it all depends on the chosen technique (hair or shadow) and the area of painting.
Healing care recommendations
The speed of healing - this is what distinguishes the new technology from classic tattooing. Immediately after the procedure, slight swelling of the treated area is possible, but the next day it passes without a trace. If you decide to microblad the eyebrows, the healing will take place almost imperceptibly. You can’t roughly scratch and scratch the skin; in the first days, an almost imperceptible film forms on it, which then itself disappears. Refuse from visiting the sauna, bathhouse, solarium until complete healing. It is also recommended to avoid serious physical exertion and swimming in open waters and pools. Skin can be restored faster by treating eyebrows with Bepanten ointment or one of its analogues. Be sure to consult a cosmetologist and choose the best option for caring for the injured area.
When is the time for correction, if you did microblading eyebrows? What is a mandatory procedure?
The vast majority of women who decide to improve the shape of the eyebrows in the most modern way do the correction after the main session. About 30-50 days after the procedure, you can evaluate the result and correct it a bit to achieve a more natural effect. Usually, when recording, the wizard warns that if you choose microblading
eyebrows, correction will most likely be needed. However, you do not need to be afraid of this. Correction usually takes no more than 20 minutes and is not expensive at all. How long does microblading last? The pigment grows dull, and then completely removed after 11-18 months. The term is individual and depends on the chosen dye and the characteristics of the client's skin. It is important to understand, before choosing microblading eyebrows, that this is a gentle procedure with a short-term effect. If you like the result, to maintain it constantly, you will need to do the correction at least once a year.
