Microblade Machine Brows - More Versatile Than Microblading
Microblade Machine Brows - More Versatile Than Microblading
As a PMU (permanent makeup) artist, you know that there isn’t one technique for beautiful brows.microblade machine Microblading is popular, but there’s another method that can be equally as good and more versatile. Known as machine work, or micropigmentation, it uses a digital machine and needle cartridges with pigments to deposit colour into the skin. This is very similar to tattooing and it’s an effective way of creating ombre powder brows, hair strokes or even more bold and defined looks that can be used in conjunction with your microbladed brows.
Machine work is more advanced than microblading and takes a lot more training to master.microblade machine It’s also very delicate and requires careful attention for both aesthetic and safety reasons. If done incorrectly, it can damage the skin and scar. This is why it’s so important to choose a highly qualified artist who has the experience and knowledge to perform this treatment.
With the machine method, a vibrating needle breaks the skin as it’s being pierced, which lowers the chance of pushing too deep.microblade machine It’s also safer on mature skin, as it doesn’t open the wounds like a manual blade does. This means less trauma and fewer scabs. Additionally, the flexibility of the needle allows it to be set to a specific length which prevents too much pigment from being inserted into the dermis.
The main difference between the two methods is that machine work opens the skin less, so it’s better suited to oily skin.microblade machine It’s still not recommended for very dry or sensitive skin types, but it can be used with a variety of skin textures and is a great option for anyone who wants to avoid the time-consuming maintenance of traditional microblading.
Digital microstrokes are resilient to sebum overproduction and won’t blur together like manual hair strokes do, so they can last up to 2 years for some clients, depending on their skin type. The speed at which the colour fades varies between individuals and is affected by other factors like lifestyle, diet and other treatments or medications you may be taking.
Microblade machines can be adjusted to varying widths of needles, which helps with precision and creates different looks, from hair strokes to shading. They can also be used with a range of inks from very light to dark, for a more subtle or bold effect.
So if you’re looking for a versatile option that allows for a wide variety of styles, we recommend using a machine with a flexible needle size and inks that can be adjusted for thickness, like our pre-modified LUXE Ready Set Go Inks. Whether you want to use it for a soft and natural ombre look, bolder powder brows or in combination with your microblading, this technique will give you stunning results that will last. – Luc
