Aftercare

The cosmetic tatoo healing process may be filled with ups and downs..but please don't let it scare you! I am going to explain what to expect during the healing process. So please trust the process!

BROWS ​

• ​Immediately after your appointment, your eyebrows will appear to be darker. Swelling and redness is minimal with most of clients, and it will disappear within 1-2days. The tattooed area may feel sore and tender, it will disappear within 1-2days.

• Wipe your brows every hour with damp cotton rounds on day 1.

• KEEP THE TATTOOED AREA CLEAN, wash your hands thoroughly before touching the tattoo. 

• Wash the tattooed area 2 times a day to prevent bacterial built-up (use gentle soap such as baby soap if needed) and apply  a THIN layer of the aftercare cream if needed.

• Do not keep the  tattooed are wet, pat dry immediately after washing. Avoid long shower, hot tub, swimming etc.

• Avoid sweaty activities. 

• Avoid any kind of moisturizer, Vaseline and make-up on tattooed areas.

• Do not pick at or scratch the scabs or skin. Let the scabs fall off naturally. Picking can cause loss of pigment.

• Once the scabs have fallen off, it will appear as though the pigment is all gone, but the hair strokes will slowly  reappear at a lighter shade as your skin heals completely within 2-3 weeks.

• Once the tattooed area is fully healed, you may notice some gaps between the hair strokes or shading. Any adjustments or touch-ups can be made during your follow-up session, which can be scheduled anytime after 6 weeks from your initial appointment.

​

LIPS

• Immediately after your appointment, your lips will appear to be darker/brighter. Swelling will disappear within 1-2 day. The tattooed area may feel sore and tender, it will disappear within 1-2 days.

• Gently wash the tattooed area 2 times a day to prevent bacterial build-up (use gentle soap such as baby soap if needed) and APPLY A THICK LAYER OF THE AFTECARE CREAM EVERY1-2 HOURS UNTIL HEALED.

• You may shower normally, but avoid long showers, hot tubs, soaps or cleansers (use only unscented & gentle soap such as baby soap) on the tattooed area until healed.

• Avoid activities such as swimming, hot yoga etc until your lips are fully healed.
