Microblading Aftercare: How to Protect Your New Brows

Immediately After Your Treatment Your brows may appear darker and more defined than expected — this is completely normal. Mild redness or tenderness can occur and usually settles within 24–48 hours.

The First 7–10 Days Matter Most

During the healing process, your brows may appear darker and slightly flaky. This is completely normal. Following proper aftercare helps the pigment settle evenly and prevents patchiness.

The First 7–10 Days: Critical Healing Period

Do:

Gently blot brows with clean tissue if needed

Keep brows clean and dry

Follow any aftercare ointment instructions provided

Sleep on your back where possible

Wear clean pillowcases

Avoid:

Water, steam, swimming, and saunas

Sweating or intense exercise

Makeup or skincare products on the brow area

Sun exposure and tanning beds

Touching, scratching, or picking the brows

Keep brows clean and follow your artist’s aftercare instructions

Flaking & Colour Changes

Light flaking or scabbing is normal during healing. Do not pick — this can cause pigment loss or uneven healing.

As the skin heals, the colour will soften and may appear lighter. This is expected and part of the process.

Long-Term Brow Care (After Healing)

Once fully healed:

Apply SPF to brows when exposed to sunlight

Avoid chemical peels or exfoliants on the brow area

Keep skin well moisturised

Book top-ups as recommended

Sun exposure, skincare products, and lifestyle can affect pigment longevity.

What Results Can You Expect?

Once healed, your brows will soften in colour and look natural and beautifully defined. A top-up appointment is usually recommended to perfect the shape and color.
