POST CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

- DO NOT touch brows or surrounding area for 24 hours - including rubbing, picking or scratching the treated area. Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate off - picking can cause scarring and pigment loss

- DRY HEALING keep brows/brow area BONE DRY for 10-14 days. NO water, moisture, steam or use of any products on the brow area.

- AVOID physical effort, gym and any other activity that may cause excessive sweating for 10 to 14 days

- NO makeup or skincare products to be used on the treated area for 2 weeks

- NO facials, chemical treatments or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks

- NO increased sweating, sports, swimming, sauna, hot bath, or jacuzzi for 10 - 14 days

- AFTER 14 days, once the area has healed completely (5 + weeks), consider using sunblock when going out in the sun to prevent the color from fading more quickly (at least 30 SPF)

- DO NOT have a MRI until 6 weeks following the Microblading

IMPORTANT NOTE:

The entire healing process can take up to 6 weeks depending on your body’s regeneration, age, immune system and lifestyle. It is very important NOT to rub, pick or peel off the scabs/flaking skin, as it will disturb the skin from the natural healing process. Itching is normal as the skin is healing itself. If you do get your brows “wet” at the beginning of recovery, simply pat dry with a lint free tissue. The way you take care of your newly microbladed brows will have a big impact on the way your results will look.

After a few weeks you may notice that your brows may appear lighter than the original shade. Even with proper care and following the guidelines, your brows can “lose hair strokes” or seem “patchy” - this is completely normal and tends to happen with most clients. Unfortunately this is part of the healing process and is out of our control - which is why we schedule a 6 week touchup appointment(new microblading)
