Daily Eyebrow Aftercare

Firstly, always make sure your hands are clean before caring for your eyebrows!

Day 1 (day of the procedure):

​

30mins after the treatment and every 2-3 hours  rinse your eyebrows with lukewarm water ensuring not to stretch the skin. Circle gently on the eyebrows until clean skin is felt under the fingertips, removing all the lymph and previously applied cream.
Brows may weep a clear liquid for the first 24 hours which is normal. A few times over the first day, blot any residue dry with a soft paper towel to prevent a thick crust from forming. Thick scabbing can result in more pigment loss. 

*Goal is to get rid of excess lymph to help speed up healing time!*

Before bed, gently wash brows with clean warm water, pat dry with clean tissue, then apply a rice sized dab of cream.

​

Days 2-7:

​

Gently wash brows with warm water morning & night. Then pat dry with disposable soft paper towel to remove any secretion and apply a rice-sized dab of aftercare cream provided. In addition, apply the cream during the day every 2-3h (without washing them). DO NOT put anything (make-up, lotions, etc.) other than aftercare cream on the brows for 7 days or until fully healed.  You can wear makeup as usual, just avoid the brow area. 

Enjoy your shower, but try and keep it to a minimum.

​

Days 1-10:

​

  • Do not use a wash cloth or anything abrasive.

  • Do not pick or scratch your tattoo.

  • Avoid hot tubs, steam rooms, pools, lakes/rivers & hot yoga during the healing process.

  • Avoid direct sunlight & tanning beds.

  • Avoid brow makeup, brow or lash tints or other facial treatments.

  • Avoid sweaty exercise for 1 week.

​

Days 1-30:

​

Avoid sunbathing, sunbeds, light therapies, chemical peels, fruit acids, microdermabrasion, cream that contain regeneration factors. Avoid laser treatments over the eyebrows area, because they can destroy the pigment and cause burns. Use of antibiotics and hormonal therapy can lead to a faster pigment fading, always protect the eyebrows from the sun with SPF (not during the first 7 days).

It will itch, which is a natural part of the healing process, but it is imperative that you do not pick, peel or scratch the treated area as it will prevent color from retaining. You will risk patchiness, scarring and possibly infection. Seriously, simply sit back, relax and do nothing.

Lip Blush Aftercare

Day 1 (Day of the Procedure):

​

It is very important to remove the lymph fluid from the surface of the skin in order to avoid heavy scabbing. Before bed, if the lips still have some dry lymph, rinse with lukewarm water and gently remove the lymph, pat dry and apply “Aquaphor Healing Ointment.” Sometimes the lips can bruise even after the procedure. Bruising will typically subside within 24 hours. 

​

Days 2-7:

​

The lips may be swollen the second day as well. Keep the skin moist at all times with the Aquaphor ointment, do not let them dry out. Continue to apply ointment every 30 minutes throughout the day. Again, do NOT let the lips dry out.

 

For the first week please avoid:

 

  • Makeup (around the lip area)

  • excessive sweating

  • Spicy Foods

  • Kissing 😘

  • Saunas/hottubs

  • Pools

  • Sunbathing/tanning beds

  • Excessive Water on treated area

 

Days 1-10:

 

  • Do NOT pick the dry lips.

  • Do not apply anything besides Aquaphor ointment. 

  • Following the procedure, do not use creams that contain acids or ingredients that will lighten or exfoliate the skin. 

  • Touchups can be done between 6-8 weeks.

Healing tips & extras (for all permanent makeup)

Just a friendly reminder:

​

Healing is a process that takes time. Some skin will heal faster than others, some skin will retain pigment longer; everyone is different. Skin, lifestyle, tanning, weather & following aftercare…all these determine your permanent makeup outcome. Brows will get darker and look uneven during the first stage of the healing process. They will shed and lighten 10-30% throughout the following weeks. At the touch-up session we can make slight changes/alterations if needed. Trust the process!

​

Following the aftercare instructions is a vital part of achieving optimal results! 

​

Neglecting or trying to rush the healing process will result in less than satisfactory results.

​

Wear a daily sunscreen to prevent the sun from prematurely fading the pigment in the skin. 

​

If a product lightens, brightens or tightens avoid using it on or around your brows indefinitely.

​

After applying your makeup/foundation take a damp Q-tip and clean off your brows; this allows the pigment to show through without looking muddled by makeup.

​

I recommend yearly touch-ups to maintain the full color and shape.
