Timing: twelve to eighteen months
Yearly microblading Correction is scheduled twelve to eighteen months after your initial microblading appointment. Its primary purpose is to refresh color that has naturally faded and restore the crispness of individual strokes. Many clients plan this touch-up in autumn—True U Aesthetics sees higher demand in October through December so brows look polished ahead of holiday photos.
This Yearly Correction is a single maintenance session that focuses on color refresh rather than reshaping. It does not include additional follow-up touch-ups beyond this appointment. The Van Ness Corridor studio's location near Civic Center BART and Van Ness makes short lunchtime, early-morning or after-work bookings easy for commuters and visitors.
What the session actually does
The touch-up refreshes pigment and sharpens the appearance of strokes so brows read as crisp and well-defined after fading. It’s intended as a color and definition boost; it is not marketed or billed as a full redesign. Clients appreciate the studio's attention to detail and artistic results, which many say feel like a natural enhancement.
Appointments last 90 MINUTES and are priced Starting at $280. Sessions include a brief review of your healed brows and a focused application to restore tone. Many clients note effective topical numbing and a thorough consult before work begins, which contributes to a comfortable experience and consistently high satisfaction with results.
Maintenance versus redesign options
After the touch-up you'll receive aftercare guidance tailored to the maintenance nature of this session. Because San Francisco has a mild, often foggy climate, scheduling around personal travel and events is practical—many clients select autumn appointments so brows are fully settled before holidays. Discuss timing during booking if you have seasonal plans or upcoming photo events.
If you want significant changes to shape, density, or a different style, the Yearly Correction may not be sufficient and we’ll discuss options during a consult. Clients travel from nearby Daly City, Sausalito, Oakland and beyond to maintain consistency; mention prior appointment details when booking so we can match pigment and stroke work efficiently.
