AFTER CARE
AFTER CARE
8 WEEK HEALED RESULTS
Why is after care so important?
Failure to follow post treatment instructions may cause loss of pigment, discoloration or infection, meaning results will be compromised. Remember, colors appear brighter and more sharply defined immediately after the procedure. As the healing progresses, pigments will process and skin will regenerate and peel. Peeling is NORMAL. After peeling, color will soften and gradually reappear at 2-4 weeks. A touch-up procedure may or may not be necessary. Final results cannot be determined until healing is complete. Touch up procedures must be made 8 weeks following the procedure.
DAY 1
After procedure, dab brows with a clean cotton pad or clean tissue paper regularly
NO water, soap, moisturizer, or make-up on or near brows for 10 days.
Apply bandaids to on the tail of brows, for protection from side sleeping (10 nights)
DAY 2-14
Use plastic visors provided in the shower on days you wash your hair to prevent them from getting excessively wet for 10 days.
Do a splash of warm water on your brows daily, but do NOT soak or get them excessively wet.
Wash your face in the sink, do NOT wash it in the shower. You may wash below the eyes as normal using face wash & water. Use a clean cotton pad to clean around eyebrows and forehead to prevent water from dripping onto the eyebrow area for 10 days.
With a clean Q-tip every time, gently apply a thin layer of your post care ointment based on your skin type (located in your aftercare card).
Still avoid soaps, lotions, or makeup!
