The most important part of a successful microblading/permanent makeup procedure is the client’s adherence to the aftercare instructions. You want to make sure to keep the area moist with Aquaphor. Do this all day long, 24/7. Continue this for at least 10 days. This will allow the color to set in. It will prevent oxygen from hitting your brows and changing the color while it is setting.
DO NOT WASH THE PROCEDURE FOR 24-48 HOURS!
Avoid for 10 days: Makeup (on procedure area), Extreme Sweating, Swimming, Tanning, Hot Sauna, and Laser/Chemical/Botox Treatments.
Aquaphor Is Your Best Friend
-Use a cotton swab to apply Aquaphor Ointment throughout the day for 2-4 weeks (the area should never be dry).
-For the first 4 hours after the procedure, pat the procedure area with a paper towel. Do this every 30 minutes to remove excess blood and fluid.
-Do not touch the procedure are with your fingers as they have bacteria on them and create an infection.
-We suggest Aquaphor because it tends to not cause inflammation, but if you are allergic, Vaseline will do just fine.
-Always use a “total sun block” sunscreen until the area has fully healed to prevent future fading of pigment color.
-Do not use products that contain AHA’s on the procedure area as they will fade the color (Example: Glycolic, Lactic Acids)
Extra Instructions For Lips
-Ice your lips every 30 minutes on the day of the procedure to prevent bruising & swelling.
-Avoid for 1 day: tooth paste and hot foods.
-Avoid for 3 days: teeth whiteners, spicy food/drinks, lemon, salt, and vinegar. Use a straw for the next: coffee, wine, and any drinks that will stain. Wear a hat to shield the area from the sun when you go outside. Extra Instructions For Eyeliner
-Ice your eyes every 30 minutes on the day of the procedure to prevent bruising & swelling.
-For 2 weeks: No eyelash tinting, perming, or extensions.
