How does using Retin-A effect microbladed eyebrows?

Question

If I don’t use the retin-a on or near my eyebrows, how does it fade them? I am to be getting mine done in a month and a half but would still like to continue using it. Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

Retin-A is known to fade microbladed eyebrows. You can continue to use Retin-A on all other areas of the face besides the area near or on the eyebrows.

Hello, retin-a is an exfoliant.  This is how it helps to alleviate acne and fine lines, by exfoliating the skin.  You wouldn't want to exfoliate microbladed eyebrows as this may cause the ink to fade quicker than you would like.  You can still use your retin-a and have microbladed brows just avoid the eyebrow area when applying.
