TREATMENT PREPARATION 

  • Do not drink alcohol within 24 hours prior to treatment. •  Some medications may cause adverse effects, please call for further advice if you are currently taking any medication. A Doctor approval  may be required before proceeding  
  • Cease intake of fish oil supplements 1 week before treatment. • Consider any upcoming social events or work-out commitments for  the week following your treatment. 
  • If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning to conceive please call  for further advice. 
  • If the area you would like treated has an existing cosmetic tattoo  please call for further advice. 
  • Protect the area from sun exposure 2 weeks prior to treatment.

Brow Preparation 

  • Have your brows waxed/tidied a week before treatment.
  • Do not wax or tint the brows within 3 days of treatment.  No tinting until 4 weeks after. 
  • Gently exfoliate the area for up to 3 days prior, ensure the skin is well  nourished.  
  • Do not use any brow-enhancing serums for at least 30 days before  treatment 
  • Do come in with an open mind about the different techniques: after a thorough consultation your artist will advise the most suitable option.
  • You will be advised not to wet your brows for 5 days following  treatment, I recommend washing your hair the night before. 

 

AFTERCARE

IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT 

  • Do not touch the tattooed area with your fingers. 
  • Gym/Exercise: The following activities should be avoided for 48 hours  after treatment: cardio workout, excessive sweating, sauna, hot spa,  spray tanning. 
  • For 2 weeks following treatment: avoid, chlorinated and salt water pools,  high UV exposure, sun beds, and infra-red light exposure. 
  • Colour will appear darker than desired for 5-7 days. 
  • No water, soap, or cleansers on the treated area for 5 days.
  • Avoid makeup on the treated area until healed. 
  • Do not pick the flaking skin or formed scabs. 
  • It is recommended that you return for a perfection visit 4-8 weeks  after your treatment, for any necessary adjustments. 
  • Excessive exposure to sun over time will cause fading, wear SPF where  possible. 
  • Certain chemicals in cleansers and moisturisers will accelerate fading  and may discolour the tattoo: AHAs, BHAs, benzoyl peroxide, bleaching  agents, and chemical peels must be kept away from the area.
  • Expected healing time: 5-8 days. 

Brow Aftercare 

  • Each morning clean the brow area with a damp cotton tip.
  • Dab the area dry with a clean tissue. 
  • Using a cotton tip, apply a very thin layer of aftercare product to the  area and allow the gel to dry. 
  • Once dry, the product may be covered by sunscreen or cosmetics if  you wish. 
  • Repeat this procedure morning and night for 7 days. 
  • Avoid saturating the area with water until the final scabs naturally fall off. 
  • Once healed, minor patchiness in colour may be present in some  areas. This is normal and will be adjusted accordingly at the touch-up  in 4-8 weeks. I recommend wearing brow powder or pencil to cover  these areas until then. 

 

1 WEEK AFTER TREATMENT 

 

Where did the colour go?  

During the healing process the tattooed area will become darker  and minor scabbing will develop as a new collagen rich skin forms  underneath. This new skin temporarily makes the pigment appear faded  and dull. Within a week or two the new skin will settle and the colour will  return. Protect and nourish this new skin as directed.
