Do eyebrows really thin after microblading? (Photo)

Question

I had my eyebrows microbladed yesterday. One is thicker than the other, at the arch, and I think way too thick!! She keeps telling me they will thin out, but they are SO THICK! How much do they really thin?

Jeffrey B. Wise, MD, FACS · Answer

After microblading there is a subtle shrinking of the length of the strokes. Some strokes may even disappear, which is why your touch up appointment is necessary. Unfortunately if the brows are not to your desired liking, laser tattoo removal may be necessary.Best of luck!

Tonya Boudreaux, MD · Answer

I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with your brows.
Just give your brows time to heal. After the brows have healed, they will appear less dramatic, shrink, soften and lighten up to 40%. At your touch up visit which is usually at 5-6 weeks all corrections can be done at this time.
Hope this helps!
