Eyebrow tattoo aftercare:
On this page the necessary information will be displayed to care for your new semi- permanent brow tattoo. This information is meant to serve as a guideline and does not guarantee results. Each person's skin responds and heals differently. Healing time, resulting color, retention, touchups required, and scarring will cary depending on each individual.
WHAT TO EXPECT
You may experience discomfort, mild pain/sensitivity, swelling, and redness immediately following the procedure. The feeling you will experience may resemble a similar sensation as a sunburn. These initial symptoms should subside within 1-3 days. Avoid the sun, heavy exercise/sweating, direct contact, and wetting for the first 10 days after the procedure.
DAYS 1-3
At first, the initial treated areas will appear darker, bolder, and more defined than the final result.Please be aware of this and do not worry, as the final appearance will soften after the healing processis finished.
DAYS 4-10
Around day 4 or 5, your brows will begin to scab and flake. DO NOT scratch or remove the scabs.Please note that picking, scratching, or removing healing skin from your tattoo may result in loss of pigmentation. They will fall off on their own and any adjustments needed will be corrected during your touchup.
DAY 10 THROUGH TOUCHUP
You may resume exercise, sun exposure, wetting (showers, facial cleansing, etc.) at your own discretion when your tattoo is done scabbing. They will appear lighter and softer and may darken slightly as the skin regenerates and fully heals. Patchiness or loss of pigment will be addressed and corrected during your touchup.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not apply any makeup or products other than aftercare ointment until your tattoo is fully healed.
DAYS 1-7:
At the beginning and end of each day, use a small amount of antibacterial soap on clean fingertips to gently cleanse your eyebrow tattoo. Use a soft patting motion, do not rub. Blot gently to dry. Once completely dry, apply a thin layer of aftercare ointment. Do not apply aftercare ointment more than twice a day to avoid clogging or premature flaking.
DAYS 8-14:
You may resume exercise, sun exposure, and regular wetting at your own discretion when your tattoo is done scabbing. Continue to avoid chemical peels, exfoliating, and products containing retinal, alpha hydroxy, and glycolic acids until touchup.
