Preparing for your appointment

PRECARE instructions:

• Avoid Chemical Peels, Microdermabrasion, laser treatments, & facials for 4-weeks prior procedure.  
• Avoid exercising on the day of procedure & plan to avoid heavy exercise/sweating for a few days after.
• Avoid Fish Oil, Prenatal Vitamins, Nutritional Shakes (Shakeology, etc), “Hair, Skin, Nail” supplements 48 hours prior to procedure.
• No ibuprofen, aspirin, Advil, vitamin E, or fish oil  unless medically necessary 48 to 72 hours prior to your procedure. 

• Avoid caffeine and alcohol for 24 hours before the procedure.
• Avoid sun and tanning at least one week prior to procedure.  

• If you ARE pregnant, nursing, currently using retinoids, have any previous brow PMU, have any active skin conditions on the face, have any bleeding or healing issues, are taking any antibiotics, steroids, or blood thinners, or need to reschedule for any reason, please let us know ASAP.  


We will need 72 hours notice if you need to reschedule. 

+ for brows

• Discontinue Retin-A or other retinols at least 4 weeks prior (and avoid on eyebrow area after procedure).  

• Refrain from use of any Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) products close to the eyebrow area 2 weeks prior (and avoid on eyebrow area after procedure).  

• Botox and filler on the forehead, temple, and eye area should be avoided 2 weeks prior to procedure for those who do not regularly receive injectables.  

• Discontinue growth serums for 4 weeks prior to your appointment. 

• Do not dye or tint your brows for 2 weeks ahead of your appointment, and do not wax or pluck for as long as possible ahead of time so that we can see the full pattern of your natural hair.

+ for eyeliner

• Lash serums must be discontinued 4-8 weeks prior to your appointment. 

• Make sure any lash extensions are removed 48+ hours before your appointment. 

• Do not wear contact lenses to your appointment or for 2 days after. 

+ for lips

• No lip injections for 4 weeks before and after this treatment. 

• Be sure to moisturize well during the weeks leading up to your appointment. Exfoliate morning and night with a scrub (or make your own w sugar + olive/coconut oil) for regular use in the days before your appointment.

• If you have ever in your entire life had a cold sore (even one single blister decades ago), a prescription/anti-viral medication MUST be picked up and started before your treatment. 

• If you have a history of bad outbreaks, you may want to consider adding L-lysine supplements in addition to your anti-viral regimen (with doctor's permission) as early as a month ahead of your appointment. 

* HSV-1 may lay dormant in anybody (as it is in the majority of the population, even if you have never experienced a cold sore) and this treatment may awaken an outbreak.

HEALING & AFTERCARE FOR YOUR PMU

AFTERCARE instructions:

The optimum goal of aftercare is to keep your fresh tattoo clean & dry. 


First 48 hours : Gently wash the area using clean fingertips with a gentle, unscented soap & water every few hours. We recommend CleanseMe (provided), Dr Bronners baby, Cetaphil, Dove, etc. Do not use a washcloth.


Pat dry with a clean tissue. 


After 48 hours: Resume a regular washing routine (morning & night) using the same gentle cleanser for the full healing period.


Minor redness, irritation, swelling, and flaking are expected. DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch. No makeup, swimming, steam, sun exposure, or skincare products on the area during the first 2 weeks of healing. 

+ for brows

• For dry to normal skin, apply a rice grain amount of aftercare oil to the brows with a clean q-tip as needed when feeling super dry or tight. Do not exceed more than 3x daily.

• For oily skin, you may not need to apply any oils, creams, or lotions. 

+ for eyeliner

• Keep clean & dry at all times, particularly in the morning when swelling & crusting is most expected.

• To prevent excess swelling, avoid high amounts of salt, drink lots of fluids, plan to sleep with an extra pillow (as upright as possible), and you may want to take antihistamines (benadryl) with doctor's permission on the day of. 

+ for lips

• First 48 hours : Keep moisturized at all times. Use a straw to drink fluids. Cut up your foods. No intimate activity. 

• If tinging occurs or sores start to develop (usually between days 2-4), see a doctor immediately for antiviral treatment.

 

Emergency removal

Healing from emergency removal

 

Healing isn’t glamorous—scabbing pulls out pigment, and the longer scabs stay, the better the lightening. Interrupting scabs risks damage or scarring. 

Expect tightness, itchiness, redness, and dryness during healing.

Aftercare for emergency removal

 Keep the area clean & dry by blotting with saline only, several times a day until scabs fall off. Avoid covering the area and keep it dry.

Limit water exposure, no soaking or steam, no baths, swimming, saunas, tanning, or exercise until healed.
