Post-care

​WHAT CAN I EXPECT IMMEDIATELY AFTER MY APPOINTMENT?

 

After getting your brows done, you may experience some warmth and/or a little swelling around your brows, this typically disappears within 24-48 hours. In the hours following your procedure, your brows will appear darker and bolder than it will heal. This is normal and this is not the way they will remain. 

​

Around day 4-5, you may notice some light scabbing (like dry skin) around your brows, this is normal and DO NOT PICK, doing so will result in loss of pigment in those areas and can cause scarring. You may notice that some areas may appear very light or even have lost pigment entirely after they have peeled.

​

No water on your brows for the first 10-14 days (activities may be resumed once the brows are completely done flaking) after your procedure. We will give you wash and balm after the procedure, yes, you can wash your brows!

 

10-14 days post-procedure:

  • No make-up, lotion, face wash, serums

  • No direct sunlight. After completely healed, use sunscreen on your brows

  • No PICKING YOUR BROWS/touching/rubbing/scratching

  • do not sleep on your face

  • No excessive sweating/working out, swimming

  • No hot bath, jacuzzi, sauna, steam

  • No facials, laser, chemical treatments, peeling, any Acid or Retinol (acne or anti aging) serums for 14 days

 

Brows may appear spotty or patchy until the entire brow has finished healing. After 4-6 weeks, your brows will be fully healed, the pigment will typically reappear but will about 30-50% lighter than it was immediately after the procedure. Whatever pigment that does not return will be addressed at your touch-up appointment. We will touch-up the empty spots, asses your retention and adjust the color or dimension during that appointment.
