Common Questions About Microblading
What is Microblading ?
Microblading is a semi-permanent form of cosmetic tattooing. But unlike traditional tattoos, which use a tattoo gun, microblading uses a blade-shaped tool with a row of tiny, barely visible needles to create hair-like strokes along your brows while depositing pigment into your skin. The result? Realistic-looking brow hairs that don’t wash off for a year or more.
Is Microblading Good For Thin Brows ?
Microblading can be great for those with thin, sparse brows to get some definition and fullness,
but it might not look as natural as someone who does have hair behind the draw-on strokes. If you’re worried about your microbladed brows looking too drawn-on, your brow artist can add shading behind the hair-like strokes so the empty spaces between the strokes isn’t so noticeable. Those who already have some eyebrow hair and just want a lil fill-in or enhancement to their natural brows can get a very natural look with microblading.
How Painful Is It ?
Microblading can be somewhat painful, but the level of pain you may feel will depend on your own natural pain tolerance. The upside? Your brow artist will slather on a numbing gel before they begin, and may also add an extra layer of gel between each pass. In general, many liken the pain of microblading to a cat scratch, noting that “on a scale of tweezing your brows to getting a bikini wax, microblading is more like tweezing your brows.” Basically, expect the pain to be a littleuncomfortable, but not unbearable.
How Long Does It Last ?
Microblading can last anywhere from one to three years depending on your skin type (oilier skin types tend to fade the fastest). In one year, you’ll likely notice some fading, but your microblading probably won’t totally be gone. By three years, though, you can expect your microblading to be nearly untraceable. However, consistent touch-ups every 12-18 months can help your microbladed brows look fresh throughout the years.

What Does DPL Provide?
Using the Rapid DPC you can painlessly remove hair
from skin type 1-5 on the Fitzpatrick scale. The system
enables you to select the best-suited wavelength and
pulse duration for each skin type. The light energy is
then optimally absorbed by the melanin pigment in the
hair follicle and causes selective damage to the follicle
without damaging surrounding tissue. The Rapid DPC
is equipped with two designated hair removal hand
pieces: HR 580 and HR 635.
