Microblading
Microblading is the process of implanting cosmetic pigment into the upper dermis of the skin with a manual hand-tool to create the appearance of natural hair.
Microblading
Microblading leaves the client with crisp, thin lines that blend seamlessly with your real hair. Microblading is meant to be a subtle, natural enhancement to create the illusion of fuller brows. It is the perfect solution for those who want to fully reconstruct, define, cover gaps, or fill-in over plucked brows. We only use the highest quality of cruelty-free/vegan pigments as well as disposable sterile needles. Results last anywhere from 2 – 5 years depending on skin type and lifestyle.
- Natural realistic results
- Ideal for Normal/Dry skin
- NOT Ideal for Extremely Oily Thick Skin with large pores
- NOT ideal for very sparse brows
Microblading / Ombre / Shading
For individuals with very sparse hair that desire the look of very full and intense brows, we may recommend a combination brow approach. This technique combines both the traditional Hairstroke Microblading with the Powder Effect technique to increase the intensity of the brows as well as retention of color. At your consultation, your artist will discuss with you the best method for your brows
- Ultra hyper-realistic recreation of lost eyebrows
- Combination of Microblading + Shading
- Ideal for all skin type
- Ideal for very oily skin type with large pores

Men's Eyebrows
Microblading for aesthetical purposes. Brows are an important facial feature as it frames the face, even for men. Microblading can enhance a man’s features in a natural and subtle way. We’ve developed our own unique Microblading technique to suit men’s needs.
Microblading After Care
Please follow these instructions to ensure proper healing and color retention. Please note that color appears darker for a few days after your treatment. Do not worry, this is temporary. Color will soften and will appear more natural as the healing progresses, we promise! It is normal to experience peeling of pigment. Fading or loss of pigment may occur during healing, in fact, it is expected, especially for your first treatment! Do not pick. Allow it to fall off naturally.
IMMEDIATELY WHEN YOU GET HOME gently apply a very thin layer of the aftercare ointment, the size of half a rice grain. Avoid getting the area wet for additional 7 days other than the normal required post-care cleansing process.
IN THE NEXT 7 DAYS maintain regular facial hygiene, DO NOT use an exfoliator. Absolutely no skincare or makeup on the forehead and brow area.

While every person is different and some heal more quickly or slowly than others, here’s generally what to expect following your eyebrow procedure:
Day 1 to 2
Day 1 The eyebrows are approximately 50% darker and 10-15% bolder in width than when they will be when healed. Expect light to moderate swelling and redness. The skin’s redness causes the color of the pigment to appear darker. There is some swelling, although difficult to see due to the thickness of the skin in the eyebrow area. This will subside. Exfoliation, which begins in a few days, will cause the excess pigment surrounding the eyebrow to flake away and a narrower appearance will result. New skin will heal over the pigmented area and result in a softer appearance of your eyebrows. Don’t be concerned that your eyebrows initially appear darker and heavier in size than you desire. This is all part of the process.
Day 3 Eyebrows start to itch and will appear a bit thicker in texture. Exfoliation begins.
Day 4 The skin begins to flake, peeling from the outside edges first. Please do not pick at the scabs.
Day 5 Color finishes flaking off and appears softer and grayer for a few days until color clarifies.
Day 7 The color has lightened from its initial overly dark appearance. For the next few days, the color may now be lighter than what the final color
Day 8-10 The final color begins to stabilize and show through.
Day 11 to 30 Pigment can disappear and reappear after two weeks so please be patient with final results after 1 month
Day 30 You should see your final results at this stage. If you would like to do a follow-up touch-up, please email us at appointments@botanicalwellnessspa.com with a current photo of your brows to be pre-approved. We book all touch-ups via email.
