Microblading Practice Exam

During the microblading healing process, what should clients be advised to avoid if utilizing the dry healing method?

1. Lotions and creams

2. Sun exposure

3. Excessive sweating

4. Makeup applications

The correct answer is: Lotions and creams

The dry healing method emphasizes allowing the microbladed area to heal without the application of moisture from external products. Advising clients to avoid lotions and creams during this process is crucial because these products can introduce moisture that may interfere with the scabbing and healing process. The purpose of dry healing is to let the skin naturally heal and create a protective barrier, which can reduce the risk of complications such as infections, poor pigment retention, or excess scabbing. While sun exposure, excessive sweating, and makeup applications are also important factors to consider during healing, they generally fall under broader guidelines meant to protect the microbladed area. However, the specific avoidance of lotions and creams is a direct instruction tied to the principles of the dry healing method.
