Microblading and Permanent Makeup

Proper “pre” and “post” care is essential to achieving optimal results from your treatment. If there are any outstanding questions after reading the information provided below, please do not hesitate to call us. We want to ensure all of your questions are thoroughly answered.

Pre-Treatment Instruction:

Do not workout 24 hours prior to treatment
Avoid caffeine 48 hours prior to treatment
Sunburnt skin can sometimes be painful when treated. We always recommend using sunscreen to protect your skin when outdoors.
To minimize bruising avoid the following ~7 days prior to treatment: baby aspirin, Aleve, Motrin, multivitamins, vitamin E and D, fish oils, alcoholic beverages. These are blood thinners and will cause you to bruise more easily. Note: DO NOT discontinue baby aspirin or any blood thinners prescribed by a physician before checking with THAT PHYSICIAN.
Please discontinue products containing any exfoliating agents (retinoic acid, tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids, astringents, etc.) 24 hours before treatment.
Please discontinue products containing any exfoliating agents (retinoic acid, tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids, astringents, etc.) 24 hours before treatment.

Post-Treatment Instruction:

Microblading/Ombre Brows

Immediately Following Treatment:

The healing process can last anywhere from 4-6 weeks and your body will go through healing phases. Note that because the skin is going through a regenerative process, after recovery (peeling) your brows may look lighter than they were during the treatment. This is normal but with proper care and a touch up 6 weeks post treatment, they will keep the color.
No water or steam 7 days post treatment.
No product on the area for 7 days post treatment. Apply products around the area.

Day 1-30
- Bruising, pinpoint bleeding, minor scabbing, minor breakouts, swelling and/or redness may occur and will resolve within 7-10 days of treatment.
- Do not pick, peel, rub, scrub or irritate your skin in any way while it is healing, as this may cause scarring.
- Avoid heat, saunas, hot tubs and sweaty activity; this includes exercise of any kind.
- Do not use an electric or manual facial brush of any kind (i.e. Clarisonic or something of the like).
- Mineral make-up may be worn, however, we recommend leaving skin clean for this time period if possible.
Day 30+
- You may resume your regular skin care routine as long as peeling/flaking has subsided. If you are still peeling/flaking, be patient and allow your skin the time it needs to heal before starting back on your routine.
