​BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT...

This is is to ensure the best possible result! Please read carefully:
1. Please do not work out the day of the procedure as the body heat will expand the pores.
2. Try to avoid drinking caffeine before your appointment. 
3. Do NOT take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E and/or Ibuprofen, omega-3, unless medically necessary, 48-72 hours prior to the procedure. (Tylenol or acetaminophen is okay!)
4. Do NOT drink alcohol 24 hours before the procedure. 
5. Accutane cannot be taken within 6 months prior to the appointment.
5. The following treatments should avoided 4 weeks before of the procedure (two weeks after). 
  • Botox or other fillers 
  • Chemical Peels
  • Laser treatments
  • Retin-A, retinol, retinoids. 

AFTER YOU GET YOUR NEW BROWS..

​Aftercare is the MOST important thing to ensure correct healing and longevity of your new brows!
1. Keep the tattooed area clean by blotting gently with a damp (lukewarm) cotton ball or pad 2-3 times a day. Pat dry with a disposable paper towel. 
2. For the next 7 days, apply a very small amount of the ointment (provided) in the morning after cleaning with a cotton swab.

FOR OILY SKIN
1. Keep the tattooed area clean by blotting gently with a damp (lukewarm) cotton ball or pad. Pat dry with a disposable paper towel. 
2. You will not apply ointment. 
3. Pick up some powder free blotting sheets (NYX from Target are great!) and blot your brow and forehead through out the day for the first week.

Avoid the following for the 14 days following your procedure:
  • Any kind of moisturizer, oil, and vaseline on the eyebrows (other than the one provided).
  • Makeup on or near the eyebrows.
  • increased sweating
  • Practicing sports
  • Swimming
  • Hot sauna, hot bath, or Jacuzzi
  • Sun tanning or salon tanning
  • UV/UVA Rays or chemicals as they have been known to cause a shift in color and premature fading
  • Any laser or chemical treatments or peelings, and/or any creams containing Retin-A or Glycolic acid on the face or neck
  • Picking, peeling, or scratching of the micro pigmented area in order to avoid scarring of the area or removal of the pigment
  • Performing tasks related to heavy household cleaning such as garage or basement cleaning where there is a lot of airborne debris
  • Drinking alcohol in excess, as it may lead to slow healing of wounds
  • Driving in open air vehicles such as convertibles, boats, bicycles, or motorcycles
  • Touching of the eyebrow area except for when rinsing and applying the post-care cream with a cotton swab​ 
Itching and flaking may appear during the first seven days post-microblading procedure.  However, experience has shown that by following these after-care instructions, these symptoms may quickly disappear. 

Entire healing process will take from 4-6 weeks depending on your body regeneration and age. Your new eyebrows will go through several phases during the healing cycle. 

Your new brows will look very natural the day of the procedure, then the color of the pigment will appear much darker for the next 3 days.

​Because of natural skin regeneration, after recovery period (peeling), brows might appear lighter. This might give you the impression that color is fading too quickly. Even with proper care, clients often lose pigment in areas which make brows look uneven. It is absolutely normal. That is the reason why most customers need a touchup after 6 weeks.

Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes or dry skin. However, this is just superficial color and dry skin being naturally removed from your eyebrows.  The final look of your eyebrows will be apparent approximately 30 days after your procedure.

When your new brows are completely healed, always apply a layer of sunscreen SPF 30 up to SPF 50 on your eyebrows when exposed to the sun!
