Microblading has revolutionized the way we achieve fuller, natural-looking eyebrows. While this semi-permanent cosmetic procedure offers stunning results, maintaining flawless brows requires proper aftercare and long-term upkeep. Whether new to microblading or looking for tips to extend your results, this guide will help you keep your brows in perfect condition.

At MN Brow Lash & Medspa Academy, we not only provide exceptional microblading services but also guide our clients on how to care for their brows to maximize results. Here’s everything you need to know about post-microblading care.

Immediate Aftercare: The First Week

The first week after your microblading session is critical for healing and ensuring the pigment settles correctly. Follow these steps meticulously:

  1. Keep Them Dry: Avoid getting your brows wet for at least 7-10 days. This includes avoiding swimming, saunas, and excessive sweating.

  2. Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching, scratching, or picking at your brows. Let scabs fall off naturally to prevent uneven pigment.

  3. Apply Healing Ointment: Your technician will recommend an ointment to keep your brows moisturized. Apply it as instructed.

  4. Skip Makeup: Avoid applying makeup on or around your brows to reduce the risk of infection.

  5. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your brows from direct sunlight to prevent fading or irritation.

At MN Brow Lash & Medspa Academy, our clients receive a detailed aftercare kit and instructions tailored to their skin type and healing process.

Common Healing Stages

Understanding the healing process can help you manage your expectations:

• Days 1-3: Brows may appear darker and slightly swollen.
• Days 4-7: Flaking and scabbing are normal as the skin heals.
• Days 8-14: The pigment may look lighter as the skin regenerates.
• After 14 Days: Final results begin to emerge, revealing beautifully shaped brows.

Long-Term Maintenance Tips

Once your brows are fully healed, maintaining them is key to preserving their appearance. Here are some tips:

  1. Avoid Harsh Skincare Products: Keep retinol, glycolic acid, and other exfoliants away from your brows.

  2. Use Sunscreen: Apply SPF on your brows to protect them from UV rays that can cause fading.

  3. Schedule Touch-Ups: Microblading results typically last 12-18 months. Schedule a touch-up appointment every 6-12 months to maintain their shape and color.

  4. Stay Hydrated: Hydrated skin retains pigment better, so drink plenty of water and use a good moisturizer.

It’s best to avoid activities that cause excessive sweating for at least 7-10 days post-procedure.

3. What should I do if my brows itch?

Itching is a normal part of the healing process. Resist the urge to scratch and apply the recommended healing ointment to soothe the area.

4. How long do microblading results last?

Results typically last between 12-18 months, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.

5. Can I wear makeup after microblading?

Avoid makeup during the first two weeks of healing. Once healed, you can resume makeup application but avoid products with harsh chemicals near your brows.
