Microblading Practice Exam

During the healing period, why is it advised to avoid laser treatments?

1. It may increase pain

2. It can cause scarring

3. It can destroy the pigment and cause inflammation

4. It will delay healing

The correct answer is: It can destroy the pigment and cause inflammation

Avoiding laser treatments during the healing period is crucial because such procedures can disrupt the microblading results. Laser treatments emit concentrated light that targets pigments in the skin. If performed on newly microbladed brows, the laser can break down the pigment that was strategically placed during the microblading process, leading to fading or complete removal of the desired color. Additionally, lasers can cause inflammation in the area, further complicating the healing process and potentially resulting in an uneven appearance. This risk of pigment destruction and inflammation underscores the importance of steering clear of laser treatments until the skin has fully healed from the microblading procedure.
