Everyone heals differently and a review and second / 3rd / 4th session maybe needed depending on the treatment you decide to have. This will be discussed at the time of your consultation. 

General
It is normal for the treated areas to appear darker, larger, and more saturated up to 7 days following your session. Do not pick at or aggressively rub your permanent makeup. Doing so can result in less than desirable results such as loss of pigment, scar tissue, or infection. Avoid tanning of any kind, swimming, saunas, sweating, or exfoliating for 7 days following your service. This is essentially considered an open wound for the first week. Please follow and take seriously the aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and lessen the risk of infection. Please do not use anything on your permanent makeup that was not provided or approved by your technician during the healing process. Please note: These services are considered tattoos so although numbing is applied throughout each service, discomfort/tenderness, redness, swelling, and sensitivity is a normal part of healing. 

AVOID WITHIN FIRST 10 DAYS

• Increased sweating or intense physical activities. Salt is a natural saline solution that pushes the pigment out and lessens the retention

• Swimming

• Sauna/jacuzzi/tanning

• Laser or chemical treatments/peels

• Retin-A or Glycolic Acid

• Heavy cleaning with dust or debris

• Spicy foods

• Smoking/Alcohol (slows down healing)

• Driving in open air vehicles (convertibles, boats, bikes, motorcycles)

• Excessively touching treated area other than to clean or apply balm

• Do NOT apply ANY MAKEUP on or around treated area

MORE TIPS

• Do not take long or super hot showers within the first 7 days. It can cause perspiration and push the pigment out.

• Do not scratch or pick the treated area when it starts to itch or become patchy while healing. Pat instead. This will avoid scarring and pigment loss.

• Do not pick at the area during peeling stage. It is part of the natural healing process. Your permanent makeup will appear softer and greyer until the color clarifies. Your new permanent makeup will go through several phases during the healing cycle.

• It is normal for clients to lose original hair strokes or pigmentation. Everyone’s skin is different! It is absolutely normal and possible to heal unevenly. This is why a touch up session is required to add more strokes or pigmentation and perfect the shape if needed.

• Keep your face away from the shower head while healing.

• No makeup on treated area until peeling is finished. No exceptions.

• Avoid sleeping positions that will rub your treated area while healing. Try sleeping on your side or wearing a silk or satin face mask to avoid friction

• Cover your brows or treated area with a hat if you’re in the sun. The sun will cause the area to fade, resulting in an undesired color. Always wear sunscreen on the treated area after they heal if you aren’t wearing makeup.

• For lips, avoid kissing for the first 7 days
