What to Expect After the Procedure:
Swelling is minimal in most cases, but will disappear within 24 hours
You will experience a slight tight feeling around the eyebrows, it may feel just a little tender
Your eyebrows may feel slightly itchy
If redness occurs, it will go away within 24 hours
After Care Instructions:
Day Of:
Gently dab your eyebrows with a clean tissue every few hours following your appointment
Day 1-7 Daily Cleansing:
Twice a day, with a gentle cleanser (Cetaphil, Baby wash/shampoo or Dove soap), softly rub brows in a circular motion and rinse off
Pat gently until brows are dry – DO NOT WIPE OR RUB
If you are scabbing and flaking, you may dab your eyebrows with a damp cotton pad to clean it instead
Day 1-7 Moisturizing after Cleansing:
Twice a day, apply a rice-grain size amount of ointment on each brow with a clean cotton tip after cleansing
Do not over apply – this will suffocate your eyebrows and ruin your healing
Ointment should not be visible when applied
WHEN TO DISCONTINUE AFTERCARE:
You may discontinue the aftercare once all your scabs have fallen off naturally. Once scabs are completely off, you may now resume your regular routine (sweating, showering, makeup etc).

AVOID AND REFRAIN FROM:
Picking at your brows/scabs - it can cause scarring and affect the outcome!
Getting your eyebrows submerged in water for too long
Excessive sweating, any swimming or tanning for at least 14 days
Face scrubs, chemical peels or botox for at least 14 days
Wearing makeup on the eyebrows during the scabbing period - your eyebrows are an open wound and using makeup may cause potential infections
enjoy the joy of waking up made up!
