CORRECTIONS

MICROBLADING 101

WE’LL GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!

We strategically embed high quality pigments that are specially formulated to color correct preexisting permanent make up that may have healed incorrectly in shape and/or color for a better overall appearance. Clients must be approved for eligibility before booking.

REASONS FOR INELIGIBILITY:

SATURATION

We have to ensure the previous tattoo has faded the required amount so that we can achieve definitive strokes - if it is too dark we run the risk of the new strokes diffusing into the old tattoo and creating a “powdery” effect throughout the brow.

SCARRING

Scar tissue differs greatly from regular skin and can sometimes be unpredictable with how it absorbs pigment. Your eligibility often depends on the severity of the scarring and if the scars are hypertrophic(raised) or hypotrophic(flat) - raised scarring is typically very difficult to work with.

TIME FRAME

Skin integrity is important when assessing how often to receive permanent cosmetic treatments. We recommend waiting a minimum of 6-8 weeks in between sessions to avoid causing damage to the skin - working on the treated area too soon may result in the development of scar tissue.

STROKE PLACEMENT

The stroke placement of the previous tattoo can often restrict what’s achievable with the correction process - it’s important to go into the procedure with realistic expectations and know that your artist is working around a less desirable outcome.
