Microblading is the cosmetic procedure that inserts pigment under your skin using a needle to give you well-defined, natural looking eyebrows.

Generally, results can last from 18 to 30 months depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and how often you get touch-ups.

How long does microblading last?

As mentioned above, microblading can last anywhere from 18 to 30 months. In general, it requires touch-ups once or twice a year.

Once pigment from the procedure begins to noticeably fade, you’ll need to go back to your practitioner for a touch-up application.

Microblading touch-ups are similar to getting root touch-ups for your hair. If you go when your microblading first starts fading, you can simply have the color filled in.

If you wait longer than your practitioner recommends, you may have to have the whole microblading procedure done over again on both of your eyebrows. This is time-intensive and much more expensive than a touch-up application.

How do you know whether you’ll need touch-ups sooner or later? It depends on your skin type.
