Caring for your treatment afterwards
The outcome of your skin treatment is not determined by the procedure alone. To maximise the best outcomes you'll need to carefully prepare your skin before treatment and apply special care after treatment.

Please carefully study the following tips to care for your skin after treatment. Not doing so may hinder your final results.

After care for brows
What to expect
Immediately after
Your skin may look slightly pinkish around your eyebrows for up to two hours. The colour and shape immediately look natural therefore you can get back to your normal routine.
Day 1
Keep your brows dry. You do not need to apply any cream or aftercare product on your brows.
Day 2 - 5
You can wash your face, shower, and get your brows wet as per normal. You still don't need to apply any cream or aftercare product to your brows, unless your skin has peeled and is feeling dry and itchy. The colour becomes slightly darker, but there is no blotchy peeling appearance.
Day 5 - 7
You will find the colour has changed to a softer, lighter shade by 10 to 20%. Again, there will be no blotchy peeling, and you might not even notice the peeling process, as the very fine scabs are washed away when you cleanse your face or shower. Your skin might then feel slightly itchy as it heals. Following this, you can apply aftercare cream at night before bed for a couple of days.
After care routine
- Avoid touching, picking or peeling the treated area.
- Do wash your face and shower as usual after 24 hours.
- Avoid exfoliating the treatment area and be very gentle. Rinse with cool water and lightly pat dry.
- If you feel dryness or itchiness, use the provided aftercare cream to soothe the area (usually from days 3 - 7).
General after care
- Do not expose yourself to the sun. Wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your treatment area.
- Do not touch the treated area.
- Do not scratch, rub or pick any treatment scabs.
- Avoid environments that contain dirt and pollutants that may increase your chance of infection.
- Do minimise water exposure. Avoid swimming and long, hot, steamy baths or showers.
- Avoid using skin bleach lighten products on the treatment area. These products cause treatment colour to fade quickly. These products include chemical exfoliants such as salicylic acid, retinol, glycolic acid and skin bleaching products.
- Do touch-up after two weeks from the initial first treatment.
