Microblading info
Is Microblading for me ?
​
Microblading is amazing for creating brows that look completely natural, filling in gaps, giving a perfect shape and taking all the hard work out of having to do your brows every day.
​
However, Microblading isn't for everyone. There are certain skin conditions that can affect the longevity of the pigment. If you have what you may consider to be problematic skin or suffer from any skin conditions, such as Dermatitis, Eczema, Psoriasis, Rosacea, excessively oily skin, scarring, or any bacterial infections, please contact me for advice and to arrange a consultation.
​
Treatments cannot be performed on persons under 18 yrs, if you are Pregnant or Breastfeeding. If you have Glaucoma, uncontrolled high blood pressure, Diabetes Mellitus, if you have received an organ transplant, undergoing Chemotherapy, had a Pacemaker fitted, Epilepsy, Microblading cannot be completed. If you have a condition that is not listed here please contact me to discuss further.
​
How long does Microblading last?
​
Microblading can last up to 2 years depending on how well your skin retains the pigment. After your first session you will require a top up, at approx 6-8 weeks. After this, it is recommended that you have annual refresh to maintain the shape and colour of your brows.
