Microblading
Prep & Care
Thank you for choosing Flawless Symmetry for your Microblading experience. Please make sure you read the following instructions to assure the best results for your procedure.
It is very important to refrain from
-
Alcohol
-
Aspirin, or aspirin products, such as blood thinners.
Please refrain from
-
Ibuprofen and Aleve for 24 hours prior to your appointment.
The only product for aches and pain that will not make you bleed is Tylenol.
-
Refrain from Vitamin E and fish oil capsules for 7 days prior to your appointment.
ALL of these make you bleed excessively. Excessive bleeding during the procedure will negatively affect the longevity of your semi-permanent makeup application. In some cases, the application will need to be prematurely stopped.
Please avoid
-
Energy drinks & coffee for up to 24 hours prior to your appointment.
Not having caffeine in your system will help you to relax much more easily, as well as help to relax the facial muscles in the areas we will be working on.
HERE’S HOW TO PREPARE YOUR SKIN PRIOR TO THE PROCEDURE:

To achieve the most beautifully natural brows for your face, you will get the absolute best results by prepping for the appointment and following the after care. The eyebrow area must be healthy, strong, non-sensitive, and non-irritated.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is extremely essential and makes 50% of the total treatment success. It is crucial to follow the advice given and aftercare directions, failure to do so may put you at risk of losing up to 80% of the drawn strokes. At the end of your session, you will be provided with an after care kit that has everything you need for the 7-10 day healing process. Skin types may vary, but 10 days are recommended for optimal results.
The Healing Process
WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE FIRST 6-8 WEEKS:
The first week is going to be a difficult process. Here’s a list of thoughts that will probably cross your mind:
-
Uh-oh these are way too thick and way too dark
-
What have I done???
-
Why are my brows staring back at me?
-
I look crazy, I can't go out like this...
The great news is, the slight redness you see and the very intensified color are all part of the initial stages of healing and will only be from days 2-5. Please don’t worry, don’t freak out.. just be patient. In this initial shock phase we ask that you trust the process. After 7 days, the brows will fade about 20% and slightly shrink about 10% which will form a much more natural look. The sensation can sometimes be comparable to that of a slight burn and minor flaking or peeling may take place. Please refrain from picking at your brows as you may run the risk of removing pigment during your healing process.
Healing will differ with skin type, you may experience loss of hair strokes and fading of pigment color. This is completely normal and why Suli will include a complimentary touch up session. During this touch up session your brows will be evaluated as well as your healed results. We will fill in any missing hair strokes and freshen up the color to your liking. Lastly, the best follow up timeline will be recommended for future appointments.
