PMU FAQ

Does pmu services hurt? Most of our clients report little or no pain. Often they say it's a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10, at most. Some clients have literally slept through the appointment! We leave a topical anesthetic on the eyebrow area for 20 minutes before we begin the process, so this leaves most clients totally numb during the procedure.Microblading is intended to be a painless experience, certainly less painful than traditional tattooing on account of the numbing cream. Let the numbing cream take effect, and relax!The number 1 numbing cream for microblading includes the ingredients benzocaine, lidocaine, and tetracaine. Your technician will typically numb your eyebrows before the procedure begins and again after the procedure has started. most people report only feeling minor pressure or discomfort and less pain than a typical tattoo due to the use of a numbing cream. Of course, this will depend on your own personal tolerance to pain. Some level of pain or discomfort should be expected.

Is microblading the same as tattooing? microblading often fade over time. For many, they fade over 1 to 3 years. With microblading, there is physically less ink deposited under the skin. Microblading does not use traditional tattoo ink, our pigment colors we use retain their hue but the color gets lighter over time.
