How Microblading Works

Microblading has become one of the most popular beauty treatments across the globe as the semi-permanent results can leave your eyebrows looking fabulous for many months to come. With the treatment becoming more accessible and affordable than ever before, there has never been a better time to join the microblading Henderson revolution. Before you do, though, it’s vital that you educate yourself on what to expect from the procedure.

You’ve probably seen how effective the results can be simply by looking at your favorite celebrities, but still have plenty of questions regarding HOW the process works. Here’s all you need to know.

What are microblades?


Microblading gains its name because it uses nine tiny blades (microblades) to define and shape your eyebrows. The tiny blades are used to make tiny slices to the skin of the eyebrow while the tiny needles then transfer a semi-permanent pigment to the skin.

In this sense, the microblading is considered a semi-permanent tattooing technique, in which the results can last for up to three years (most last for 1-3 years). The technique is also called embroidery, feather touch or hair-like strokes.

The microblades will cause a small amount of pain, but most patients will find that it is quite bearable. Besides, a little pain once every three years is a far better solution than going through the regular pain of alternative weekly/fortnightly treatments. While microblading Henderson does cost a few hundred dollars, the initial hit will save you money in the long run.

What does the process entail?


If you are planning to use professional microblading treatments, it’s vital that you prepare for the salon appointment. The thinning of the blood can be very damaging, which is why you should try to avoid alcohol, aspirin, and anything else that will thin the blood for at least one week leading up to the treatment.

The microblading treatment usually lasts for around 1-2 hours, especially when choosing a highly professional service like Xpressions Salon and Day Spa. This gives the technician ample time to shape and sculpt the eyebrows with semi-permanent results through the use of the microblades. Great care is needed with every stroke.

This will also provide enough time to discuss aftercare tips. For example, you should avoid getting the eyebrows wet for 10 days while healing balm should be applied to the area at least twice per day for this period. The technician can also discuss the expected side effects within the first few days, such as flaking.

While microblading Henderson techniques bring instant results it can take a few weeks for the results to settle, which is why it’s also advised to seek a secondary booking around 4-6 weeks later for minor touchups and adjustments. With the right level of care, it should be at least 12 months before any further treatment is needed.
