Can I Do Microblading Without Numbing Cream?
Microblading is a semi-permanent makeup technique that enhances eyebrows by manually depositing pigment into the skin using fine needles. Many clients wonder if the procedure can be done without numbing cream and how it affects pain and healing. This article addresses the top questions related to skipping numbing products during microblading.
Is Numbing Cream Necessary For Microblading?
Numbing cream is commonly used in microblading to reduce pain and discomfort during the procedure. While it is not absolutely mandatory, most professional aestheticians recommend it because the process involves micro-cuts in the skin, which can cause pain. According to a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, local anesthetics improve client comfort significantly during such procedures.
How Painful Is Microblading Without Numbing Cream?
Without numbing cream, microblading can be uncomfortable or painful, especially for clients sensitive to pain. The sensation varies per individual but may include scratching, stinging, or slight burning. According to a 2020 survey of microblading clients, around 70% who skipped numbing cream described the sensation as moderately painful.
Can Microblading Be Done Safely Without Numbing Cream?
Yes, microblading can be done safely without numbing cream as long as sterile equipment and proper hygiene protocols are followed by technicians. However, pain can cause involuntary movements which might affect the precision of strokes. Therefore, professionals usually prefer numbing agents to ensure both safety and quality results.
What Are The Alternatives To Traditional Numbing Cream?
Alternatives to topical anesthetics include cooling devices or ice packs before and after the procedure to minimize discomfort. Some technicians also use oral pain relievers with prior consent. However, numbing creams containing lidocaine or similar agents remain the most effective for pain management during microblading.
Does Skipping Numbing Cream Affect Healing Or Results?
Generally, numbing cream itself does not influence the healing process or pigment retention. However, excessive discomfort and client movement without numbing can lead to uneven strokes or trauma to the skin, potentially affecting results. Proper aftercare is critical regardless of numbing cream usage.
In conclusion, while microblading without numbing cream is possible, it is advisable to use it for improved comfort and precision. Always consult with a licensed technician about pain management options. QM Makeup prioritizes client comfort and safety by offering professional-grade numbing agents and thorough pre-procedure consultations.

Powder Pigment
Why dose the ink not colored on the skin after the pigment microblading operation?
The ink is not colored on the skin after the tattoo operation, which is a common problem encountered by novice tattoo artists. There may be several reasons:
Technical problems: If the tattoo technician is not skilled, the ink may not be properly implanted into the skin during the operation, resulting in the inability to color the colorant.
Selected ink type: The type of ink used does not match the tool used, resulting in the inability to color the colorant, such as using liquid ink with a manual pen. Or the ink is practice pigment, it is not professional-grade permanent makeup pigment.
Skin condition: The condition of the skin will also affect the tattoo effect. If the skin is too dry, greasy or inflamed, the ink may not be absorbed well.
Insufficient depth: If the appropriate implantation depth is not reached during tattooing, the colorant may remain in the epidermis and cannot penetrate into the dermis.
Postoperative care: Improper postoperative care (such as excessive cleaning or improper use of skin care products) may cause the tattoo colorant to fade or fail to be properly absorbed.
If this happens after tattooing, it is recommended to consult a professional tattoo artist for evaluation and adjustment.
Super numb
Which is better, numbing cream or numbing essence?
In terms of penetration speed, numbing essence penetrates the skin faster than numbing cream and takes effect faster, but it has higher requirements for the operator and needs to avoid the numbing liquid from flowing into the eyes. For new beginners and semi permanent eye makeup tattoo treatment, we recommend using numbing cream.
Eyelash curling
How long does a lash lift last?
The curling effect of eyelash lamination can last for 8-12 weeks, during which time you can carry out water activities normally. Generally, after 12 weeks, the eyelashes will return to their original state, at which time you can arrange for a new eye lash lift treatment.
