After Your Permanent Makeup Treatment
Below are some general instructions provided so you may plan for your treatment. You will be provided with specific instructions during your treatment based on treatment area, skin response, and other factors during the procedure. Please follow all post care instructions carefully to mitigate the risk of infection and provide for the most optimal healing.
Healing time varies with each individual. Most enhancements are completely healed in 7-10 days.
Normal activity can be resumed immediately. However, is imperative that strenuous exercise, activity and sweating be avoided for 7-10 days or until the treatment area is completely healed.
If instructed to do so at your appointment, apply recommended aftercare ointment to the treated area 2-3 times per day or whenever the area feels dry. Do this for at least a full week. Only apply aftercare ointment if you are instructed to do so at your appointment. Ointment should be applied with a clean cotton swab and please ensure your hands are cleaned and sanitized when touching the treated areas. If you chose to purchase colloidal silver spray, you may spray that on the treated area before applying ointment. Colloidal silver reduces bacteria and the likelihood of infection and helps the treated area to heal faster.
Keep treated area completely dry for 24 hours. After that, you will be instructed at your appointment about how long to keep the area dry. Most eyebrow treatments will require the skin to be as dry as possible until completely healed (usually at least 7-10 days). This includes refraining from any sweating. Please plan accordingly.
Infection rarely happens but can occur. This can be mitigated by keeping the area clean and only touching it with clean, sanitized hands. Any signs of infection (excessive heat at the site, fever, excessive swelling or discharge) need to be treated by your physician immediately.
No makeup of any kind may be used on treated areas until they are completely healed. Those having eyeliner treatments should purchase a new, clean mascara to use after healing. If you had eyelash extensions before your treatments, please wait at least 10 days to apply new lashes and inform your lash artist that you had permanent eyeliner.
You may take ibuprofen after the procedure to reduce swelling.
You may ice treated areas for 10-15 minutes per hour to reduce any swelling you may be experiencing. Please cover the area with plastic wrap and then apply your ice pack.
No swimming for two weeks following your treatment. Tanning and steam treatments should be avoided the two weeks. Keep in mind tanning will fade pigment and will require you to have more frequent touchups.
Stay out of the sun. If you must be in the sun, please wear a hat. After the treated area has healed, it's very important to wear sunscreen daily to protect the pigment.
Do not use any harsh cleansers, facial creams, or exfoliates on treated areas.
A little scabbing, loose skin, and shedding of scabs is normal. Do not pick at any loose skin, as this will result in color loss.
Your permanent makeup will begin to oxidize immediately and will continue to do so during the first 3-4 days. This causes pigment to appear darker. It will then gradually lighten. Color may change several times as it heals. Please wait to judge color until at least 30 days have passed.
All colors are brighter and more bold in the beginning. Lips fade to a soft, natural color. Brows often fade by up to 30%. This is normal. Any uneven fading of color can be addressed in your touch up.
Filled eyebrows will look significantly thicker, darker, and very "drawn on" for the first several days. After they peel in 7-10 days, they will soften. The color changes as it heals. It's normal for them to have a yellow, red, orange, or greenish appearance, and this will go away as the brows heal. Final shape and color can be assessed after 4 weeks. If there are missing spots, those will be corrected during your touch up.
Lips are at least 50% darker than they will be when healed. Bruising and swelling are normal. Lips will feel very dry for up to 2 weeks, and especially so for the first 5-7 days. Keep them very moist. Do not pick at any loose skin, as this will result in color loss. If lips appear white or light after the initial color sloughs off, don't be concerned. Final color will be assessed after 4 weeks.
One complimentary touchup per procedure is offered as a courtesy to prefect your permanent makeup and MUST BE DONE WITHIN 90 DAYS. If you need to reschedule your touchup, 72 hours notice must be provided by CALLING 801-792-7994 – no texts or emails please. If 72 hours notice is not provided, there will be a charge for your touchup. No exceptions are made to either or these policies. Thank you for understanding.
