AFTERCARE

Following your procedure, expect your color to be sharper, darker, and bolder than the final result. Once you have healed fully, the pigment generally will look softer and lighter. The darkest days are typically 2-4.


Expect to see redness and slight swelling both in and around the brow area. Pigment (color) itself may appear warmer than expected due to the red, irritated skin.


DAY 1
● Expect a small amount of fluid, weeping or blood. Firmly blot brows and wipe with a clean gauze or slightly damp paper towel to remove. Excess fluid may dry and form scabs too early. Blotting typically only needs to be done the day of your visit, but done often throughout the day.

 

EVERYDAY WHILE HEALING
● Cleanse brows morning and night with mild, gentle cleanser and pat dry with a clean paper product (Dial or Cetaphil Gentle are good options). Cleanse using the pressure you would use when normally washing your face.
● Apply After Inked with a clean q-tip or clean finger. After Inked may be applied several times during the day, however only a THIN layer should be used at any time. You may need to apply once a day, and you may need to apply 3-4 times a day. This is dependent on your skin. A good rule of thumb is apply whenever your skin looks or feels tight and dry.

 

FOR TWO WEEKS AFTER PROCEDURE
● Sleep on a clean pillowcase.
● DO NOT use active ingredient products on or around the eye/eyebrow area including, but not limited to: Retin A, Glycolic or Salicylic Acid.
● DO NOT use Peroxide or Neosporin on or around the area.
● Avoid all vigorous exercise and strenuous activity. Sweat or bacteria buildup around a healing wound can cause infection or unsatisfactory results.
● DO NOT expose the treated area to direct sunlight or tanning beds.
● NO facials or invasive treatments
● NO steam rooms/saunas or long hot showers.
● NO swimming in lakes, oceans, pools or hot tubs. This is to avoid bacteria near your healing wound.
● Avoid all gardening and/or yard work.
● Avoid chemicals and irritants, particularly fine mist type products like hairspray, perfume, or air fresheners.
● Avoid ANY makeup directly on the treated area.
● Do not tint, wax, thread or tweeze eyebrows.
