Beauty Treatments in Sedona, Arizona

Microblading results typically last 12–18 months, although retention varies by skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure and aftercare. Oily skin and frequent sweating may cause pigment to fade sooner. A color-refresh appointment may be recommended when the strokes begin to soften.

Pain is relative per individual, some people refer to the initial pain as if someone is tweezing them really slow or an annoying scratch. Clients who are close to the menstrual cycle, during, or ending it will be more sensitive then ones who aren’t. Once all hair strokes are mapped out and topical anesthetic is applied there will be little to no pain at all. Anesthetics used contains either lidocaine, benzocaine, tetracaine or Epinephrine cream/liquid, if you are allergic to any of these inform me prior to service.

Appointments are booked for 2 hours. The longest process in the whole treatment is drawing the shape and measuring out the brows and making it the most symmetrical as we can. It can take up to an hour to map out the shape, once you approve we will start the process. Once done, brows are masked with an ink mask for about ten minutes and then wiped cleaned and pictures will be taken.

• Mini consultation about your desired shape of your brows and what the ultimate goal is for this procedure.

• Map out and draw the outline of your brows, a surgical marker will be used to make sure the guidelines don’t disappear while microblading. (I will use an app to make sure both sides are symmetrical. You will get to see and approve the shape before we start)

• Individual hair strokes are now added on each side and then anesthetic is applied before pigment filling. (At this point you will feel nothing)

• Two passes will be made on each eyebrow penetrating between the epidermis and dermis and filling the hair strokes.

• Mask both brows with final ink mask and let sit for approximately 10 minutes and then wipe and clean.

• Final reveal and pictures!

It takes 7-10 days after procedure for the outer layer of your skin to be healed so that you can wear makeup and sunscreen but to fully heal from the inside out, it will take 4-6 weeks.

The answer to that is no, and it shouldn’t be. The reason that Microblading is called semi-permanent is based on the depth of the blade and how far it goes into the skin. The deeper the strokes the darker they will be and with the pigment mixing with the body’s natural oil, it can become blurred in time resulting in hair strokes that aren’t defined and crisp. The perfect depth allows the hair strokes to remain thin, realistic and more true to color.

The perfection session is done at 4-8 weeks to fill in the areas that might not have taken at the first session. At this time, we only go over hair strokes that might not be that visible or if you want a shade darker we can do It at this time. For first time clients I always suggest the lighter color as we can go darker, it’s tougher to go lighter.

Microblading is not done for clients who are pregnant or nursing.

• Clients who have previous dark pre-existing dark eyebrow makeup

• Clients who have used Accutane within the past year.

• Clients who are on blood thinners and can’t stop taking it 7 days prior to appointment.

• Individuals under the age of 18

Microblading is $500, the 4-6 week perfection session is $125 and at that time should you want to add HD shading it will be an additional $100. Yearly refreshers are $375+ depending on the retention and the time between your last session. If you come back after 2 years and there’s no retention, then we will have to map out and start over it will then be considered a new session.

These products should not be used on treated areas, as they will alter the pigment and cause premature exfoliation of the pigment.

THESE ARE THE GUIDELINE FOR MICROBLADING EYEBROW TATTOO CARE:

• Immediately after the process, the brows are usually darker. The eyebrows stay that way for at least another two weeks.

• After that the color subdues to a degree, giving the final permanent color.

• Even looking dark, the eyebrows do not look ghastly on the day of the procedure. You can still socialize and go to work. Activities can be resumed right on the same day.

• The colors of the pigment used are usually similar to your original eyebrow hair color. Thus, the hair strokes blend seamlessly into the existing hair.

• Most dermatologists advise that you wear the usual makeup until the day of treatment.

• Do not take aspirin two days before the treatment.
