Microblading Aftercare Instructions

It is essential that you follow these instructions after your microblading session:

Day One (Day of treatment):

Keep the brows covered with medical silicone sealant.

Day Two and forward:

Apply a very thin layer of the post-care ointment on your eyebrows 1-3 times a day. Apply the post-care ointment with a cotton swab, and use no aggressive movement and/or manipulation of the skin. Make sure your hands are completely clean before caring for your eyebrows.

After 24 hours, gently wash off the medical silicone with lukewarm water. Be careful not to tug or scrub the brows.

The following must be avoided post-microblading procedure:

• Application of any brow makeup for 2 weeks.
• Scratching or removal of scabs, dry skin/flakiness.
• Direct water on the brow tattoo and the use of cleansers, soaps and heavy creams. Wash around the areas using a cleaning cloth or oil-free makeup wipe.
• Activities that will cause sweating for 10 days.
• Swimming pools, hot tubs or other bodies of water for 14 days.
• UV exposure (including tanning booths).
• Laser light therapy, as it can darken/lighten or distort the pigment.
• Exfoliants, retinol acids or AHA’s on the area for 30 days after the appointment (causes premature fading).
• Massages, facials or skin treatments.
• Touching of the eyebrow area except for when rinsing and applying the post-care ointment with a cotton swab

Before showering apply a layer of post-care ointment to protect your eyebrows from moisture. During the shower keep your face away from the shower head. Itching and flaking may appear during the first seven days post-microblading procedure. However, experience has shown that by following these after-care instructions, these symptoms may quickly disappear.

The healing of deeper wounds might last between 14-21 days.

Touch-ups and/or correction of the shape-design is recommended only after this period.

If you have any unexpected problems with the healing of the skin, please contact me immediately, to discuss further instructions. If you see excessive swelling, redness, drainage or discomfort, please follow up with a medical provider.

What to expect during and after your microblading session:

• Your new temporary eyebrow will go through several phases during the healing cycle.
• The pigment will appear very sharp and dark immediately after the procedure. This is because the pigment is still sitting on top of your skin, and has not yet settled in completely. The color of the pigment will soften gradually. Do not be alarmed if you see some pigment on the cotton swab, as this is excess pigment and/or body fluid that is naturally exiting your skin.
• Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes or dry skin. This might give you the impression that the color pigment is fading too quickly, however, this is just superficial color and dry skin being naturally removed from your eyebrow
• Once completely healed, always apply a layer of sunscreen SPF 30 up to SPF 50 on your eyebrows when exposed to the sun. Sun exposure might cause the color pigment to fade away more quickly.
  You can now enjoy your beautiful new brows. You will simply love your new gorgeous fresh look
