Microblading
What is Microblading and How Does it Work?
Microblading is a semi-permanent eyebrow enhancement technique designed to create fuller, well-defined, and natural-looking eyebrows.
The procedure involves using a specialised microblade to deposit pigment into the superficial layers of the skin, mimicking fine, hair-like strokes. At F5 Clinic, Chennai, microblading is performed with precise brow mapping and pigment selection to complement your facial features and skin tone.

Microblading Procedure
Pre-Treatment:
A detailed consultation and brow mapping session is conducted to design the ideal eyebrow shape based on facial proportions. Pigment shade is selected according to skin tone and hair colour. Patients are advised to avoid blood thinners and alcohol prior to the procedure.
During the Treatment:
A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort. Fine hair-like strokes are created using a microblade, and pigment is deposited into the skin. The procedure typically takes 2–3 hours including mapping and detailing.
Post-Treatment Care & Recovery:
Mild redness and darkening of brows may occur initially. Flaking and light scabbing can be expected for a few days. Patients are advised to avoid water exposure, sweating, and sun exposure for 7–10 days. A touch-up session may be recommended after healing.
What is the Cost of Microblading in Chennai?
