So much the prominence that the eyebrows have gained, that there are more and more beauty treatments that we find designed to highlight and beautify this part of the face. Among the treatments that are most in demand, is microblading and also classic micropigmentationalthough this last technique much less, since its results are not so natural.
In addition, currently the style of eyebrows that is most worn is that of natural eyebrows, thick and even with a disheveled point. And for those who do not have too thick or wide eyebrows, and want to follow this trend with a lasting result, microblading is undoubtedly the best solution.
microblading It consists of shaping the eyebrows and filling gaps with a pigment that is deposited in the dermis, so it is a semi-permanent result. And what makes this treatment so popular is its ultra-natural results. This is achieved thanks to the fact that when filling in the eyebrows hair-shaped strokes are made that integrate perfectly with natural hair. And this is the big difference between micropigmentation, which consists of designing eyebrows by depositing the pigment without creating a hair effect and its results are also semi-permanent, but less natural than microblading.
Now, like everything in life, to get the best results you have to put yourself in the hands of the best professionals, because if this is not the case, unwanted effects can be obtained. Although the good news is that microblading can also be removed if you have had a bad experience.
The expert clarifies all the doubts
Before carrying out any treatment, whether it is aesthetic or not, it is worth informing us of the possible risks that it may entail and even in the case of not being satisfied with the result, if they are reversible.
It is true that microblading or micropigmentation is often talked about as a good solution to achieve prettier and more perfect eyebrows, and that is the case, especially when we see work well done. But on the other hand, we also wanted to know about the risks that these techniques can have. For this reason, we have had the eyebrow specialist Valentina Troni by Tebori Brows, to clarify all doubts and how much truth there is in everything that is said about it.
It is not difficult to find information about microblading or micropigmentation on the internet, and some of the risks that can be run with these techniques. One of the most commented is the possibility of hypertrophic or keloid scars. In this case, Valentina has told us that it is very difficult for this to happen, moreover, all the time she has been doing eyebrows have never seen a keloid scar or a hypertrophic scar It’s super rare for that to happen.
This does not mean that in any of the cases it can happen. But according to the expert, this could happen more in the event of a bad practice of the technique, such as too much pressure being exerted when performing microblading, something that should not happen. Hence the importance of always putting yourself in the hands of professionals.
As for the possible infections, Troni clarifies that it is also very rare for this to happen, but like everything else, if the care and recommendations they send us are not followed, both for cleaning and protection, bacteria could proliferate and end up in an infection. But following the guidelines after performing microblading, it is very difficult for infections to be created.
And on the subject of allergies to pigments?, it is not usual either, Valentina tells us. The pigments used are super safe and pass high quality controls. In addition, as the expert clarifies, today there are two types of pigments that are used in micropigmentation, the organic and inorganic that do contain metal derivatives, but for example nickel is no longer used because it is highly allergic.
Now other ingredients are used, such as iron oxide or derivatives of carbon, ingredients that do not produce toxicity and that we find in a wide variety of commonly used cosmetics. And in the case of micropigmentation, the pigments are implanted in a very superficial layer of the skin, so they do not usually cause any problems.
As we have already said, both microblading and micropigmentation are semi-permanent techniques. Therefore, the result will change over time, since the ink in both cases is only deposited in the dermis. Which means that if we want to maintain these results, we will have to repeat the procedure. And this is where other doubts can arise that Valentina also clarifies.
Other information that we have come to find on the internet is that with touch-ups can lead to follicular death, which would lead to the loss of hair in the eyebrow due to the obstruction caused by the pigment, especially when we are talking about several touch-ups. And here the expert does not hesitate to answer us with a resounding nobecause the pigment that is deposited in the most superficial dermis in no case would it obstruct the hair follicle that is deeper.
We also wanted to clarify the issue ofpeople with diabetes or coagulation problems, since we have seen that in both cases these procedures are discouraged. But Valentina, far from being alarmist, has left us super calm with her words. In the case of people with diabetes, it is recommended to change their diet and those with coagulation problems are withdrawn from medication 48 hours before performing microblading. Even so, the expert clarifies that with these procedures the bleeding is very superficial.
