FAQ

This is really to emphasize the importance of following your pre care. Pinpoint bleeding is NORMAL as seen on the left and let’s us know we are in the right depth of the skin. The bleeding on right makes it harder to properly implant pigment in, which may ultimately lead to poor healing + retention.

POST CARE

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING YOUR PROCEDURE:

    

The Brows will appear to be darker & bolder in color, and more sharply defined. This will last 3-4 days. The treated area may feel a bit like a sunburn afterwards, but there should only be minimal discomfort. Swelling and Redness is Minimal with most clients, and will disappear within 24/72 hours. Once cell renewal occurs, brows will look lighter and start to develop their true color.

  • Days 1-2 – Initial Reaction

    Your brows are a bit swollen, red, and tender. The strokes look somewhat darker than you may have wanted. Be patient, this is not their final color.

    Days 3-4 – Scabs Form

    The color is already looking lighter and you’re getting used to your new brows. A scabby film forms over the treated area, and it’s probably a bit itchy.

    Days 5-7 – Scabs Flake

    The scab peeling starts

    The scabs fall off in flakes. Remember not to touch or rip off the scabs. You’ll pull out the pigments with them and your brows will heal patchy.

    Follow the prescribed aftercare routine.

    Days 8-10 – My Brows Are Gone! What’s Going On?

    Your brows are probably lighter than you’d expected.

    This is normal – your brows are going through a ghosting stage. They look too light because your skin forms new layers over the pigment.

    Days 11-14 – You Can Discontinue Aftercare

  • 4 hours post session: Take gauze and run under lukewarm water and ring out the excess water. Gently clean the brows followed by air drying them. Continue you this 2x/day until flaking appears and stop.

    For 2 weeks please avoid no sweating, wetting or direct sun exposure. After flaking phase, clients may use brow make up if needed during the ghosting phase

  • As a general rule, the patient should expect to book a maintenance appointment every 12-36 months. In the meantime clients should avoid the following:

    Once healed sunscreen should be applied to prevent fading when exposed to the sun.

    Do Not apply any skin care products on the eyebrow area especially ones that contain Retinol, Glycolic acid, AHA’s, and Vitamin A.

    Once healed eyebrows can be cleaned up (threading/plucking)

    Avoid Sunbathing or using sun beds.

    Avoid skin treatments such as laser treatments, microdermabrasion or chemical peels.

    Certain skin conditions and or excessively dry/oily skin types may fade faster than other skin types.
