Microblading is a permanent make up technique, proven and approved to be a safe beauty procedure by Doctors. It is achieved by using a small hand held tool to make small incisions in the skin, between the epidermis and dermis, pigment is then deposited into them. The results look very natural with “hair like” strokes rather than a block or powder finish. 

The procedure is created through 2 stages; the initial treatment and then the top up. The top up is recommended 4-8 weeks from the initial treatment.  

Every treatment is performed with disposable sterile tools, and the pigments used are produced to the highest standards (phi brows microblading pigments).

On the day of your procedure the shape of the eyebrows are designed and measured according to the face and using the best tools to achieve this. Before any work starts the shape will be designed using a cosmetic pencil. Once the shape is agreed the process will start, lasting around 1.5-2 hours. The pigment is chosen to match the natural eyebrow colour. Strokes are always drawn in the direction of the natural hair growth to create the most natural look.

The results can last between 9 months to 18 months depending on the skin. 

This treatment cannot be carried out during pregnancy or breast feeding. 

A patch test is required 48 hours prior to treatment.
