  • Avoid working out or strenuous exercises day of the appointment.

  • Wear glasses instead of contacts.

BROW AFTERCARE

  • Following the procedure, lymph fluids may appear on the brows. Dab the area gently with cotton pads to wipe away the fluids.

  • On day 2, please use cetaphil gentle foam cleanser twice a day to cleanser twice a day to cleanse the brows. Allow for skin to dry. Do not leave water residue on brows. Apply ointment twice a day (dry skin) and only (once a day if skin is oily).

  • It will take about 10-14 days for your brows to finish peeling. In this time frame, your brows may appear light (possibly even looks like pigment is missing). Do not worry- the skin takes about 27 days to regenerate itself. The color will resurface. Give it time and trust the process.

Things to avoid during the healing process:

  • avoid getting brows wet in the shower.

  • Do not let the scabs get soggy! Dry immediately if the area gets wet.

  • Do not apply makeup to your brows. Your brows are considered an open wound. Infection can occur from bacteria from your products.

  • DO NOT PICK, PEEL, or SCRATCH your brows. Doing so may prematurely remove pigment from your brows and/or cause scarring. Let it fall off naturally.

  • Avoid steamy showers, saunas, hot baths, jacuzzi, and working out.

  • Avoid sun exposure, sun tanning, laser, or chemical treatments.

  • Always wash your hand with disinfectant soap before touching the brow area.
