Microblading is designed to fade gradually rather than remain unchanged forever.
There isn’t one expiration date that applies to everyone.
What Affects Microblading Retention?
Several factors can affect how quickly brows fade:
- Skin characteristics
- Sun exposure
- Skincare products and treatments
- Lifestyle
- Pigment retention
- Aftercare
- Individual metabolism
Why Is Fading Important?
Gradual fading allows brows to be reassessed over time as your face, natural brow hair and preferences change.
Maintenance can then be performed when appropriate rather than endlessly adding pigment on a rigid schedule.
When Do I Need a Refresh?
Don’t judge only by the calendar.
A refresh should depend on how much pigment remains and how your brows currently look.
If you’re unsure, Blink can help evaluate your existing brows.
