Aftercare Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential for beautiful, long-lasting permanent makeup results.

During the Healing Process

• Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness are normal initially.

• The color may appear darker or more vibrant before gradually softening.

• Do not pick, scratch, or peel the treated area.

• Keep the area clean and follow the cleansing instructions provided by your artist.

• Avoid excessive sweating, swimming, and prolonged soaking during the initial healing period.

• Avoid makeup and harsh skincare products directly on the treated area until healed.

• Use only recommended aftercare products as directed.

Long-Term Care

• Apply sunscreen once the area has fully healed to help prevent fading.

• Avoid harsh exfoliants and chemical treatments directly over the permanent makeup.

• A touch-up may be recommended after healing to perfect the results.

Healing: Initial healing commonly takes approximately 7–14 days, while the final color may take 4–6 weeks or longer to settle.

Important: Contact a healthcare professional promptly if you experience worsening redness, increasing pain, unusual swelling, pus, or other signs of infection. Eye symptoms after eyeliner procedures require prompt medical evaluation.

Specific instructions for brows, lips, and eyeliner will be provided based on your procedure.
