Microblading Aftercare

• Residual pigment, blood, white blood cells, etc, can arise from the open wound 1-2 hours after the procedure. Clients may gently dab the brow with a tissue every 5 minutes to remove/prevent build up and dust particles. 
• Do not use any cleanser/soap on the brows.
• Do not wash your hair for the first 2 days.
• Do not wear any makeup or skincare product on or near the eyebrow area.
• Do not participate in any activity that will get your eyebrows moist or wet (swim, sauna, sweat, hot shower, exercise, etc.).
• Do not pick or scratch at the dry skin/flakiness; let the skin fall off naturally. Picking can cause scarring and premature loss of pigment
  • OPTIONAL - To relieve itchy brows, you may apply a grain size amount of A&D ointment at most once a day.
• IMPORTANT: Once the flakes have fallen off, a shiny layer of healing skin will completely cover the hair strokes. It may appear as though the tattooed area has completely disappeared. Within 1-2 weeks, the hair strokes will slowly reappear at a lighter shade as your skin regenerates.

The healing process will vary per individual, as will results. The following instructions can help you achieve but cannot guarantee results. 

DAY 1 - 2

• The tattooed area will appear to be dark and more bold.  Don't be concerned that your eyebrows appear darker and heavier in the size than you desire, this is all part of the process.
• Minor swelling and redness right after treatment.
• Mild tenderness.

DAY 3 - 5

• Itchiness in the eyebrow area.
• Eyebrows will appear thicker in texture.
• Natural exfoliation begins.
• Do not pick at any dry areas.

DAY 5 - 7

• Skin will begin to scab and flake.  Do not pull off any flaking. 
• The color will fade up to 60%.  Your skin is still regenerating and naturally exfoliating. Wait at least 6-8 weeks to see the true color, as it seems to take on new strength, and it is only after 6 weeks that your touch-up/adjustment can be done.
• Some unevenness of color is expected after scabbing has flaked off.  This is the purpose of your touch-up visit allowing us to fine tune your enhancement.

DAY 7 - 10

• The color finishes flaking off and new skin underneath appears softer and less visible for a few weeks.  The color will slowly reappear weeks 3 - 6 of healing.

• Do not expose your enhancement to direct sun, tanning treatments, Jacuzzis, saunas, salt water, chlorinated pools and direct shower spray.
• Do not receive eyebrow tinting, waxing, electrolysis or laser hair removal treatments close to the brow region.

THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS as everyone’s result will vary due to skin type, lifestyle and the initial 10 day care and long term care of your brow tattoo.

• Use good sunscreen on the treated area.   Exposure to the sun over time can cause fading and discoloration of the pigment. 
• Laser to brow areas may cause change of color of the pigment.
• As tattoo fades the strokes will become faint and less defined.
• Chemical exfoliants will cause brows to fade faster.

Failure to follow post-procedure instructions may cause loss of pigment, discoloration and/or infection.
