Abstract
Background: Eyebrows are a distinct facial feature and any shift in their appearance impacts self-perception of external beauty attributes. There may be loss of hairs, or changes in pigment and texture due to primary or secondary causes.
Summary: A surge in demand for microblading in recent years, majorly for aesthetic value, has driven curiosity and requests for the procedure. This has translated to subjective dissatisfaction with cosmetic outcomes while also increasing the risk of complications and immunogenically driven adverse events.
Key messages: Understanding the nuances of the technique and undertaking basic precautions will enable safe and desirable results in this common procedure.
