The Consultation

microblading consultation

A consultation for a microblading procedure typically involves several steps to ensure that you understand the process, feel comfortable with me, and achieve your desired results. Here’s what you can expect during our consultation:

Introduction

  • I’ll ask you about your reasons for wanting microblading, your expectations, and any specific concerns or preferences you have.
  • You can explain to me what you want to achieve to help me understand your vision.
  • I’ll inquire about your medical history, including any allergies, skin conditions, medications, or past procedures that might affect the microblading process.
  • I’ll examine your skin type and condition to determine suitability.
  • Patch Test: I recommend a small patch test to be done at least 48 hours before the procedure to reduce the risk of experiencing an allergic reaction to the pigment.
  • Step-by-Step Overview: I’ll explain the microblading process, including pre-procedure preparation, the actual microblading session, and post-procedure care.
  • Pain Management: I will use a numbing cream to minimise any discomfort.

     Design and Shaping

    • Brow Mapping: I’ll use a pencil to draw the proposed brow shape on your face, ensuring symmetry where possible and a flattering shape that complements your facial features.
    • Your Approval: You’ll review the drawn shape and give feedback. I’ll make adjustments until you’re satisfied.

    Colour Selection

    • Pigment Choice: I’ll present different pigment options and recommend a shade that matches or complements your natural brow color and skin tone.

    Aftercare Instructions

    • Detailed Guidelines: I’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions, including what to do and avoid in the days following the procedure to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
    • Aftercare products: I’ll provide an aftercare products, such as ointments or creams, to aid in healing.

    Questions and Concerns

    • Your Queries: I encourage you to ask any questions you might have about the procedure, aftercare, or potential risks.
    • Clarifications: I’ll address any concerns and provide clear, reassuring answers.

    Scheduling and Paperwork

    • Appointment Scheduling: If you decide to proceed, we’ll schedule an appointment for the microblading session.
    • Consent Forms: You’ll review and sign consent forms acknowledging your understanding of the procedure, risks, and aftercare. I will provide you with a copy of the consultation form electronically so that you have all the aftercare details to hand, as there is a lot to remember!

    Payment and Follow-up

    • Payment Details: We’ll discuss the cost of the procedure and payment options.
    • Follow-Up Appointment: I’ll provide information about a follow-up appointment for touch-ups, usually scheduled 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure.

    Additional Considerations

    • Photos: Before-and-after photos will be taken for the salon’s portfolio and your records.
    • Comfort and Cleanliness: I’ll ensure you’re comfortable and confident in the cleanliness and professionalism of the environment.
