In the last few years, powder brows emerged as an extremely popular option for microblading that sets more dramatic effects for you and works on any type of skin.
But whenever we go for any permanent makeup, the very first question that comes to mind is, what does the healing procedure look like, right?
The healing procedure of powder brows is no different than the microblading healing process. Although if you keep sticking to the powder brows healing and aftercare instructions given by your expert, then the whole process will become a cakewalk for you.
Before you schedule your powder brows treatment with us at Lash Boutique, we want you to know what will happen during each stage of the healing process. Here’s a simple explanation of what you can expect as your brows heal after the treatment.
Let’s have an overview of powder brows:
Powder brows are a type of semi-permanent makeup that makes your eyebrows look like you’re wearing makeup. To do this, the artist uses a special machine to insert natural pigments into the top layers of your skin using a technique called “dotting.”
After getting powder brows, you’ll see a shadowy effect under your eyebrow hairs. This effect can be created with a gradient, giving your brows a powder-ombre look.
The powder brows procedure involves two steps. First, the pigment is inserted during the initial treatment. Then, there’s a touch-up appointment about six weeks later, after your brows have gone through the healing process.
What is the complete healing procedure of powder brows?
Permanent makeup procedures, like powder brows, are usually not very invasive and don’t cause much harm to your body. This means there’s no significant downtime that would affect your normal daily activities.
Even though permanent makeup procedures like powder brows are not too harsh, they still involve breaking the outer layer of the skin (epidermis). As a result, the skin needs some time to heal.
During the powder brows healing process, which happens in the days and weeks after your treatment, your skin recovers from the procedure, and the tiny wounds caused by it start to close. At the same time, the pigments used settle into your skin, and the final color of your brows becomes more visible.
How much time do powder brows take to heal?
The healing procedure of powder brows usually takes 4-6 weeks.
The powder brows healing process can be different for each person and may depend on various factors. Some people heal quicker than others naturally. For instance, it may take more time for mature skin to recover.
The first ten days after getting powder brows are crucial for your health and the success of the treatment. During this time, you need to be extra careful and follow the aftercare instructions provided. It’s important to avoid wearing makeup during this period around your brows area.
After the initial ten days, you can take it easy, but still, make sure to avoid any activities that your artist warned you about. Your powder brows will fully settle into their final shape and color within 4 to 6 weeks.
