Those who are pregnant or nursing: Hormonal changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect the skin's healing process and pigment retention, making microblading less predictable and increasing the risk of complications. There is always a risk of infection when it comes to tattoos. For this reason, tattoos (including microblading) are not advised during pregnancy. Although infections aren’t common, if an infections occurs, it could be passed on to the baby. It’s advised to wait until you’re no longer pregnant or nursing before receiving this procedure.

Those who have been on Accutane within in the last 12 months: you must wait at least one year (after stopping Accutane) before considering this procedure. There is a risk of scarring when receiving a tattoo while you’re on Accutane or during the first year after. Please speak with your doctor for any additional questions related to Accutane.

Individuals with certain skin conditions: Conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, cystic acne or rosacea in the eyebrow area can compromise the skin's integrity and increase the risk of adverse reactions or poor healing after microblading.

Those with oily skin: Oily skin could impact how well your microblading can heals. Meanwhile microblading is best suited for normal/dry skin types, many people with oily skin have gotten microblading done, and the results do vary depending on the person and how they heal. While some clients heal great, some can find the healed result to be powdery and not as crisp. If you have oilier skin, using blotting papers around your brow area may not be a bad idea to reduce the amount of oil being soaked up by your brows. All in all the overall consensus is that even if clients have oilier skin they're still happy they did the microblading over having done nothing at all.

Those prone to keloid scarring: Keloids are raised, thick scars that can form after injury or trauma to the skin. Microblading may exacerbate keloid formation in susceptible individuals, leading to undesirable scarring.

Individuals with bleeding disorders: Conditions that affect blood clotting, such as hemophilia or thrombocytopenia, can increase the risk of excessive bleeding during the microblading procedure, making it unsafe for these individuals.

Those with compromised immune systems: Individuals with weakened immune systems due to conditions like HIV/AIDS, cancer, diabetes, or autoimmune diseases may have difficulty healing properly after microblading and are at a higher risk of infection.

Individuals on certain medications: Some medications, such as blood thinners or retinoids, can affect the skin's healing process and increase the risk of complications from microblading. It's essential to discuss any medications you're taking with your microblading technician before the procedure.

Individuals with active skin infections or open wounds: Microblading should not be performed on areas of the skin with active infections, inflammation, sunburns or open wounds, as this can increase the risk of complications and delay healing.

Those with recent Botox or filler injections: Individuals who have had Botox or filler injections in the eyebrow area should wait until the effects have fully settled before considering microblading(ideally at least 2 weeks before or after microblading). Injectables can alter the shape and position of the eyebrows, making it challenging to achieve symmetrical and desired results with microblading.

Individuals with prior permanent makeup: If someone has previously undergone eyebrow tattooing or permanent makeup application in the eyebrow area, microblading may not be suitable due to existing pigment saturation or scar tissue depending on how it was done. This is why a photo of any current microblading tattoo is necessary to book.

Individuals with significant skin sensitivities or allergies: Those with a history of severe allergic reactions or sensitivities to topical products, including numbing creams or pigments, may not be suitable candidates for microblading due to the risk of adverse reactions.

Those with unrealistic lifestyle expectations: Microblading requires proper aftercare and lifestyle adjustments during the healing process to ensure optimal results. Individuals who cannot commit to following aftercare instructions or who engage in activities that may compromise healing, such as excessive sweating or exposure to sun or water, may not be good candidates.

Those with unrealistic expectations: Microblading can enhance the appearance of eyebrows, but it's not a solution for everyone. Individuals with unrealistic expectations or who are seeking drastic changes to their eyebrows may not be suitable candidates.
