Facial care not only involves carrying out a correct skincare routine with the right cosmetics for the skin’s needs, but also pampering other parts of the look: eyelashes, lips or eyebrows. The latter have been adapting to trends: sparsely populated, almost completely shaved or very dense. Fashions change and we try to adapt to trends. Are you one of those who has bald eyebrows? Are your eyebrows unruly? Or are you one of those who shaved too much? There is an aesthetic and minimally invasive technique capable of creating thicker and more defined eyebrows regardless of what your natural eyebrow looks like: microblading.

Microblading is nothing more than a technique that is responsible for pigmenting the eyebrows. It could be defined as a kind of semi-permanent tattoo on the eyebrows. In other words, it “draws” hairs on our natural eyebrows to achieve the ultimate goal: to have them thicker, to cover bald spots, etc. And does it last forever? The answer is no. The duration of the treatment will depend on various factors, yes, its aesthetic effect is quite prolonged in time but varies depending on each person. “The time it lasts will depend on the type of skin, the regenerative capacity of each one, the quality of the pigments used and the lifestyle” they say from the Clínica del Río Ortega, a multidisciplinary center for medicine, health and welfare.

In recent times, microblading has become a popular technique to improve the overall appearance of the eyebrows. Among other things, for its innumerable benefits. Not surprisingly, anyone regardless of skin type can undergo this technique and, in a simple way, they fill in sparse eyebrows or bald spots. In addition, the results are natural as the pigment is applied to the top layer of the skin almost from the beginning.

It is common to confuse microblading with eyebrow lamination. Laminating eyebrows seeks a “combed effect” of the eyebrows through the application of products that precisely help their hairstyle, while microblading seeks to modify the state of the current eyebrow, either by filling in bald spots or adding density to them.

If you are thinking of undergoing the microblading technique, it is advisable that you consult with an expert who will assess your eyebrows and advise you on how to perform the treatment to achieve the eyebrows you want.
