2-3 hours After treatment, gently clean the area with a very small amount of sterile water on a cotton pad, just barely damp, NOT wet. Do this 2 times today to avoid build-up of blood/lymph on the area.
Do not do anything to your brows
Using a cotton
swab, you may apply a very
small amount of Aquaphor
or A&D ointment to brows
(very small amount-like half
the size of a grain of rice for
both brows.)

Do not use aggressive movement/ manipulation of the skin- be gentle. Make sure your hands are clean before touching your brows.
DO NOT PICK SCABS OFF BROW.. they are healing TRUST THE PROCESS

Your eyebrows will go
through several phases
during the healing cycle.
Days 1-4:
The pigment will appear very sharp and dark. This is because the pigment is still sitting on top of your skin, and has not yet settled in completely. The color of the pigment will soften gradually.
Do not be alarmed if you see some pigment on the cotton swab, as this is
excess pigment and/or body fluid that is naturally exiting your skin.
Days 5-7:
Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes or dry skin. This might give you the impression that the pigment is fading too quickly, however, this is just superficial color and dry skin being naturally removed from your eyebrows.
Days 8-12:
Your brows may look as though the pigment has completely faded – do not panic – take a deep breath and trust the process.
Days 14-28:
Your brows may still look a little patchy or uneven, but the pigment will start to “reappear” as the pigment settles and the healing continues. You may get your touch-up/ perfecting procedure done at the 4-8 week point NO SOONER to allow for complete healing of the brows.
