Tips to Keep Your Microblading Treatment from Fading

Microblading

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at January 22nd, 2023

Microblading, or “eyebrow embroidery,” is a cosmetic superficial tattooing technique that can achieve fuller, deeper, more defined brows. The treatment involves depositing small amounts of specialized pigment into the skin with a handheld tool in the shape of hair strokes. Microblading can improve your natural beauty, but remember that the results are not permanent and will need periodic upkeep to stay impactful.    One of the most frequently asked questions among those considering microblading is, "Does microblading fade?" Yes, but with proper microblading aftercare, the results can last up to two years.   In this article, we'll go over the best ways to keep your microblading treatment from fading too quickly, so you can have beautiful, natural-looking brows for as long as possible!

What Are the Best Aftercare Practices for Microblading?

Your brows will most likely be slightly swollen and tender after your microblading session, and the color may appear darker than the final result. Avoid getting the area wet for at least a week, and avoid sweating, swimming, and sun exposure for at least two weeks to ensure the best healing and preservation of your new brows. See more on our microblading aftercare reference page.   It's also important not to pick or scratch the treated area, as this can result in uneven or faded pigmentation. To keep the area hydrated, use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer, and avoid wearing makeup on the treated area for at least one week.

Tips to Keep Your Microblading Treatment from Fading

Touch-ups are essential for keeping your microblading looking fresh. Most clients will require a touch-up in 6-8 weeks and again in 6-12 months.   Another excellent way to extend the lifespan of your microblading is to protect your skin from the sun. Sun exposure can cause the pigment to fade, so always wear sunscreen or a wide-brimmed hat outside.
