AFTER CARE

Post treatment care makes 50% of the total treatment success.  Conscientiously adhere to the given advice because if not, you can risk losing up to 80% of the drawn strokes.

At the end of your session, we will provide you with an after care kit that has everything you need for the 7-10 day healing process. This may vary per skin type, but 10 days recommended for the best results.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS FOR THE FIRST 7-10 DAYS:

• 1 hr post appointment, blot your brows with a clean tissue to remove lymph.

• Within 2 hrs post appointment, wash your brows with the aftercare soap with clean hands. Use 1 pump of aftercare soap and wash in the direction of hair growth with a light swipe motion. Pat dry and apply rice grain size amount of ointment. Apply aftercare ointment 3-5 times a day for normal skin, 1-2 times daily for oily skin

• Wash morning and night for 10 days and apply ointment morning, noon, and night.

• Avoid getting the treated area wet for 7-10 days

• No sweating or excessive exercise for 7 days

• Avoid topical makeup and sunscreen on the brow area for 7 days

• No facials, botox, chemical peels or microdermabrasions for 4 weeks

• No major sun exposure or tanning for 4 weeks

THE HEALING PROCESS

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE FIRST 6-8 WEEKS:

The first week is going to be gnarly. Here’s a list of thoughts that will probably cross your mind:

• OMG these are way too dark and way too thick

• What have I done???

• Why are they staring back at me?

• I can’t go out like this.. I look crazy.

The good news is, the Intensified color and slight redness are part of the initial stages of healing and will only be from days 2-5. Don’t worry, don’t freak out.. just be patient. This is the initial shock phase and we ask that you just simply trust the process. After 7 days, the brows will fade about 30-50% and shrink about 10% to a much more natural look. The sensation can be comparable to that of a slight burn and minimal peeling or flaking may take place. Refrain from picking at your brows as you may run the risk of removing pigment in the process.

Healing will vary with skin type, but you may experience color fading and loss of hair strokes. This is completely normal. We like to include a complimentary touch up session where we can assess your healing and fill in any missing strokes as well as give it a color boost. We can then recommend the best follow up timeline for future appointments.
