Microbladingis one of the most popular forms of semi-permanent makeup, according toAllure.
Certain procedures are safer than others.
According to Allure, microblading is dermatologist-approved.
So if you want to try microblading, it’s highly recommended to book an appointment with a dermatologist.
Cleveland Clinicreports that the two most significant risks from cosmetic facial tattoos are infection and allergies.
Sanitization of needles can significantly decrease the risk of infection.
Allergic reactions can happen to people who are sensitive to certain pigments or chemicals in the ink.
Dermatologist Ava Shamban told Allure that while she approves of eyeliner tattoos, she does not recommend lip blushing.
Shamban said, “There is a higher incidence of allergy to red pigment in the tattoo.”
The FDA cites keloid formation, or the development of scar tissue, as another risk some people face.
Some people, especially those who have permanent eyeliner, report swelling or blurring after undergoing a MRI.
To avoid this issue, the FDA recommends telling your doctor before any procedures.
