Pre / Post Care Instructions

Pre-Care Instructions

Blood thinners will cause bleeding, swelling, hypersensitivity and slows healing.

24 hours prior to Appt – Avoid any blood thinners like Aspirin or ibuprofen and do not drink alcohol.

Post-Care Instructions

Post-treatment care usually takes about 7 days.

Day 1 – 30-40 min after appointment, wash the brow area with a water damped cotton ball very gently. Pat dry with a paper towel. Repeat the process right before going to bed.
Day 2-7 – Start applying a very thin layer of the healing ointment once a day.

What to Expect / What is Normal

Days 1-5 – Brows will appear darker and thicker, scabbing forms over the strokes to protect the area while healing. Do not pick or pull scabs away if any appear. Do not itch the brow area.
Days 5-9 – As the scabs start coming off, they may appear patchy (be patient, it’s just a few days, the balm will help with the flaking and itching).
Days 9-12 – The pigment under may look light or milky due to a thin layer of scar tissue, its completely normal.
Days 12-21 – The pigment will “come back” once the thin layer of scar tissue heals and strokes in the brows will darken. Whatever strokes didn’t stay we will put back at the touch-up!
Trust the process!
