Post Care Instructions
* DO NOT rub, pick or scratch the treated area. Let any dry skin or scabbing naturally exfoliate off. Picking can cause scarring and pigment loss!
* Allow eyebrows to completely air dry (48 hours) before applying ointment. Apply ointment with freshly washed hands or a Q-tip. Apply ointment until peeling is complete.
* DO NOT get brows wet for the first 10 days, remember to apply ointment starting on day 3.
* DO NOT over saturate brows with ointment, one thin swipe across the brows.
* Avoid pool, saunas & steam rooms. (Anything that will cause excessive sweating.)
* NO makeup or skincare products should be used on treated area for the first 12-14 days.
* NO facials, chemical treatments and microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
* Avoid Retin-A, Chemical Peels and microderms around the eyebrow area once healed.
* Avoid excessive sweating for the first 10-12 days. Any activity that may cause sweating through or on the brows will expel pigment from the epidermis producing poor results.
* Completely avoid excessive sun exposure and tanning beds for a minimum of 4 weeks after your procedure. Direct sunlight can cause the pigment to change color while it is healing and can also cause hyper pigmentation and scarring. If you have engagements where you must be in the sun a hat with a visor is highly suggested to be worn the entire time to avoid poor healing.
* Keep the brow area clean. Hands must be freshly clean when caring for treated area. Avoid abrasive wash cloths or sponges.
* DO NOT use anti-aging products that contain Lactic acids or Glycolic acids.
* Approximately 2 weeks for healing (Peeling and scabbing) allow 30 days for pigment to set into the skin.
