AFTER THE PROCEDURE

After you walk out of my studio, the aftercare and choosing to follow them is essential to ensure better healing and to get naturally beautiful looking brows.

 

 Everyone heals differently, which means it may not be perfect the first session.
 

Please be patient as this is a process, do not expect perfect results after the 1st session and it is normal to need 2 sessions to achieve the desired results. 

 

Some client’s skin may have a harder time retaining pigment, or due to some medications may require additional sessions.

​

Your brows may start peeling after the 3rd day and finish around the 7th day.

 

Sometimes it will take a bit longer to fully heal due to medications, dry skin or sensitive skin.
 

DO NOT scrub, rub or pick at the epithelial crust that forms. Allow it to flake off naturally up to the 7 days of healing
 

DO NOT scratch, pick or peel the area as it can cause scarring and/or color loss

If there is any redness or swelling it will dissipate within 24 hours.
 

Results will vary for all individuals, and we cannot guarantee your results.

THINGS NOT TO DO

What to avoid

THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS as everyone’s result will vary due to skin type, lifestyle and long-term care of your brow tattoo.

The sun is the worst thing for PMU and tattoos!!

Use at least SPF 30 to protect your brows, sun exposure will cause fading and can alter the color of your tattoo.


Do not do laser your brow area (IPL etc.), some lasers may change the color of the ink.


As the tattoo fades the strokes will get fainter and less defined. 

Maintenance is required to maintain desired results. Touchups are done on average every 9 - 24 months to maintain your brow tattoo.


Hairstroke brows typically last 1-3 years.


Hot steam showers feel great but unfortunately can cause dehydrated skin and inflammation/cellular breakdown.


An active lifestyle and oily skin are more prone to premature fading and brows will require more maintenance.


Glycolic acid, retinols, AHA's, anti-aging lotions and serums, microdermabrasion, chemical face peels and laser treatments must be kept away from the tattooed area as continued use could lighten or discolor the pigment.


If you are having laser resurfacing or laser hair removal after your tattoo has healed, please inform the laser technician. Continue at your own discretion. Laser procedures may darken, lighten, or discolor the tattooed area.


Once the treated area is completely healed, any changes or additions that need to be made can be done at your follow-up appointment no sooner than 5-8 weeks later. It takes about 4 weeks for the brow area’s skin cells to completely regenerate and settle in.


Once again...there are no implied or written guarantees if you do not take care of your tattoo, it will not look good or last.
