Microblading has become increasingly popular as a way to achieve perfect, natural-looking eyebrows. However, like any cosmetic procedure, there are risks involved. When this goes wrong, it can leave you with uneven, misshapen, or even infected brows. In this blog post, we’ll discuss some of the most common problems that can occur during microblading and how to avoid them.
Infection Of Microblading
Infection is one of the most serious complications that can occur during microblading. If the microblading technician uses unsterilized equipment or fails to follow proper hygiene protocols, it can lead to infection. Symptoms of infection include redness, swelling, and pain in the eyebrow area. To avoid infection, make sure to choose a reputable microblading technician who follows proper hygiene protocols.
Allergic Reaction
Some people may have an allergic reaction to the pigments used in microblading. Symptoms of an allergic reaction can include redness, itching, and swelling in the eyebrow area. To avoid an allergic reaction, it’s important to do a patch test before getting microblading done. This involves applying a small amount of the pigment to the skin behind the ear to see if there is any reaction.
Uneven or Misshapen Brows
Another problem that can occur during microblading is uneven or misshapen brows. This can happen if the technician does not measure or draw the brows properly before beginning the procedure. It can also occur if the pigment is not applied evenly or if the strokes are not uniform. To avoid uneven or misshapen brows, make sure to choose a technician who is skilled and experienced in this.
Fading or Discoloration
Fading or discoloration of the pigment can occur over time, especially if proper aftercare is not followed. This can result in brows that look patchy or uneven. To avoid fading or discoloration, it’s important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by the technician. This may include avoiding exposure to sunlight, not using certain skincare products, and avoiding swimming or sweating for a certain period of time.
Conclusion
While this can be a great way to achieve beautiful, natural-looking eyebrows, it’s important to be aware of the risks involved. When this goes wrong, it can result in serious complications such as infection or allergic reactions. To avoid these problems, it’s important to choose a skilled and experienced microblading technician, do a patch test, and follow proper aftercare instructions. If you experience any complications after this, it’s important to seek medical attention immediately.
