Nano Brow VS Microblading – Everything You Need To Know

Are you looking for flawless Eyebrows?!

I am sure you have heard a lot of talk about Microblading. But what if I told you there is an even better technique out there, the Nano Brow!

They are both hair stroke techniques; however the Nano brow is much different than Microblading. Believe it or not the Nano brow has been around since the start of Permanent Makeup, back in the 1930’s! You may ask why haven’t you heard of it? It’s because Microblading is a very “American” brow procedure. You will find that throughout Europe and other countries, many licensed Permanent Makeup Artist will promote and perform only the Nano Brow. So what exactly is the big difference?? The Nano Brow is a much safer technique and is less trauma to the skin.

So what is the difference between the Nano Brow and Microblading?

Permanent Makeup Artists have identified the Nano Brow as a much safer technique with less trauma to the skin. Microblading implants the pigment into the skin using a handheld tool called a microblade. Typically this tool will have an array of needles, ranging from 9-14, which are closely placed together to form a blade. This tool is then used to create hair strokes by moving it across the skin. The blade will make small incisions in the first layer of the skin, called the Epidermis. The pigment is then placed on top of the skin which saturates into the hair strokes.

The Nano Brow, also known as Micropigmentation, actually gets its name from the needle used, a Nano Needle. This is a single Microneedle connected to a conventional needle device. This device moves the needle 120 times in one second. (Speed of the needle is dictated by the artist according the device being used. This case study is based upon the Linelle Supreme by Amiea) As the needle moves up into the cartridge, it grabs the pigment, and as it move down it implants the pigment into the Dermis, the second layer of the skin.

The Permanent Makeup Artist operating the device has complete control of the depth of the needle. The Needle sits approximately 0.89 mm outside of the cartridge which allows for the the Artist to work very superficial. Precise pressure is applied to create the perfect crisp hair strokes resulting in for very natural results.
