After Care
Proper Care for Your New Eyebrow Tattoo
​
Day 1:
​
During the first 24 hours, it is crucial to avoid heavy scabbing on the treated area. To do this, use a damp paper towel to blot and press your brows every few hours for 30 seconds. This process will remove lymphatic drainage, oil, and blood.
​
Day 2-10 (until brows are completely healed):
​
To avoid infections, gently wash the treated area twice a day with mild, antibacterial, and fragrance-free soap.
​
Dilute the soap and rinse gently; do not wipe.
Pat dry with a clean paper towel and let the area air dry for 10-15 minutes.
​
If you experience any unexpected issues during the skin healing process, please contact your artist right away for further instructions.
*If you develop any of these symptoms, such as fever, redness, swelling, tenderness, elevated body temperature, red streaks going from the procedure site towards the heart, or any green/yellow discharge that is foul in odor, contact a physician immediately.*
Healing Process
Your eyebrows will go through several phases during the healing cycle.
​
Days 1-4:
The pigment will appear very sharp and dark. This is because the pigment is still sitting on top of your skin, and has not yet settled in completely. The color of the pigment will soften gradually. Do not be alarmed if you see some pigment on the cotton swab, as this is excess pigment and/or body fluid that is naturally exiting your skin.
​
Days 5-7:
Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes or dry skin. This might give you the impression that the pigment is fading too quickly, however, this is just superficial color and dry skin being naturally removed from your eyebrows.
​
Days 8-12:
Your brows may look as though the pigment has completely faded – do not panic – take a deep breath and trust the process.
​
Days 14-28:
Your brows may still look a little patchy or uneven, but the pigment will start to “reappear” as the pigment settles and the healing continues.
You may get your touch-up/ perfecting procedure done at the 8-11 week point NO SOONER to allow for complete healing of the brows.
​
Special Attention
Here are some important reminders to ensure that your skin recovers quickly and safely after a procedure:
• Don't pick at scabs or dry skin, as it can lead to scarring or loss of color
• Avoid facials, botox, chemical treatments or microdermabrasion for at least four weeks
• Refrain from doing any hot, sweaty exercises for a week
• Stay out of direct sunlight or tanning beds for four weeks, and wear a hat when outside
• Don't take long, hot showers or engage in activities that lead to heavy sweating for the first ten days
• Stay away from swimming, lakes, and hot tubs for the first ten days
• Don't apply any topical makeup, including sunscreen, to the treated area
• Lastly, be sure to avoid rubbing, picking, or scratching the treated area.
• Use a clean pillowcase to avoid irritation
• Try not to sleep on your face during the first ten days
Long Term Care of your Brows
Tips for Maintaining the Longevity of Your New Eyebrows
​
After your brows have fully healed, it's vital to protect them from the sun by applying sunscreen with an SPF ranging from 30 to 50. Sun exposure can cause the color pigment to fade more quickly.
​
While applying foundation, be mindful of your healed brows. If foundation covers the treated area, your brows will appear lighter. Use a cotton swab to remove makeup from your brows.
