Base on your answers to the questionnaire on the consultation session, and the type of your skin as well as realistic eyebrows expectation we will help you to choose the best treatment that suits your needs better.
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 oxidizes with the oxygen in the air and simply gets darker, no matter how light was the initial pigment, this process is unavoidable. The colour of the pigment will soften gradually. Do not be alarmed if you see some pigment on the cotton swab when you follow the aftercare 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 colour 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 to allow for complete healing of the brows. Touch up must be booked 4-10 week after the initial session. NO SOONER than 4 weeks or Not later than 10 weeks.
DAY 1 (DAY OF TREATMENT)
30 mins After treatment, gently clean the area with a wipe (you will receive the wipes and the aftercare cream) Repeat this step 5 times today every 1.5 – 2 hrs to avoid build-up of blood/lymph on the area.
DAY 2
Gently clean the area with a wipe 3 times today (morning – afternoon – evening) to avoid build-up of blood/lymph on the area.
DAY 3-5
Don’t do anything to your brow.
Day 6-10 or until all scabs fall off
Using a cotton swab, you may apply a very small amount of ointment to brows (very small amount-like half the size of a grain of rice for both brows.) This is just to add a small amount of moisture – brows should not appear greasy, glossy or shiny, if they do, you used too much.
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.

• Hot sauna, hot bath, or Jacuzzi
• Sun tanning or salon tanning
• Any laser or chemical treatments or peelings, and/ or any creams containing Retin-A or Glycolic Acid on the face or neck
• Picking, peeling or scratching of the brow area. You will cause scarring of the area or removal of the pigment if you pick or peel scabs prematurely.
• Performing tasks related to heavy household cleaning such as garage or basement cleaning where there is a lot of airborne debris – now is not the time!
• Touching of the eyebrow area except for when cleaning and applying the post-care with a cotton swab
• Do not use any cleansers or facial products of any kind, over the brow area for at least 10 days.
• Absolutely do not use any ointments, antibiotic creams or gels, or vitamin creams over the brow area – it will draw out the pigment. (you should only use the cream that we provide you on the day of your appointment)Please NOTE: Itching and flaking may appear during the first seven days post-procedure. However, experience has shown that by following these after-care instructions, these symptoms may quickly disappear. Touch-ups and/or correction of the shape-design is recommended only after 4-10 weeks. Please make sure to book your complimentary touch up ASAP!
