Eyebrow microblading before and after

Eyebrow Microblading (currently not taking new clients) —

Eyebrows frame our facial features while creating symmetry that is pleasing to the eye. You will look natural and effortless with microbladed brows.

This is the service that started it all at Rise Skin Studio! Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo technique where I create fine line stokes and shading within your natural brow area to enhance the shape, fullness, and color of your brow. The ink used for this type of cosmetic tattoo contains smaller pigment particles than traditional tattoo ink, so it lasts roughly 1-3 years depending on skin type. Initial retouch included within 6 weeks of original service.

  • Six weeks before your micro blading appointment it’s recommended to avoid chemical/laser peels, and any retinol application.

    Avoid Botox Treatment within the two weeks before your appointment.

    Expected Appointment Duration: 2 hours.

    Expected Healing Duration: 14 days

    Microblading is semi permananent & can last up to 3 years, depending on skin type.

  • Your microblading appointment will begin with a consult for the physical look of your current brows. We will then map out a brow shape based on preferences, bone structure, and current brow growth location.

    Numbing cream is applied topically, then color is selected by placing multiple pigment options on your skin tone, once coloring is agreed upon, fine line tattooing begins.

    Aftercare product will be applied after the session and take home care instructions are provided.

    I will book your retouching appointment which is included in the initial cost when claimed within 6 weeks of the original service.

    Before & after photos are taken for reference, privately stored, and only shared with written consent.

  • There are a few things to keep in mind before booking your microblading session:

    Six weeks before your micro blading appointment it’s recommended to avoid chemical/laser peels, and any retinol application.

    Avoid Botox Treatment within the two weeks before your appointment.
