Permanent Eyebrows Aftercare
What to expect immediately following your brow procedure:
You made it! Celebrate by sleeping in a little longer each day and enjoying your newfound free time. To preserve your completely healed results; apply sunscreen regularly, hats and larger sunglasses are encouraged, and avoid over-exposure to the sun. Chlorine, glycol acid, microdermabrasion, and other cosmetic products can lighten the pigment with repeated use.
When getting any procedures, whether it be cosmetic or not, done to your face please let the individual performing the service know about your brows and continue at your own discretion. We are not responsible for any changes made to your brows in reaction to any additional services you may receive.
The intensity should regress within 3-4 days. The sensation can be comparable to that of a slight burn and minimal scabbing and/or flaking may take place. Refrain from removing the scabs/flakes as you may run the risk of removing pigment in the process. It’s very important to keep the brows hydrated with a tiny amount of Vaseline starting from the 3rd day onwards. The true vibrancy of your cosmetic tattoo will fade about 30-40% from what you walked out with revealing a soft and natural brow tone.
THINGS TO REMEMBER WHILE BROWS ARE HEALING:
- Keep your brows dry on the first and second days of the procedure
- Moisturize brows with a tiny amount of Vaseline starting from the 3rd day onwards
