Post Procedural Care

 

POST PROCEDURAL CARE

After care makes up 70% of your results and is extremely important, especially during the first 48-72 hours. The treated area must be kept clean and dry. The skin is open and can easily get infected if bacteria is allowed in, however, do NOT wash excessively.

30 minutes after the procedure wash the area with neutral soap such as children's wash or Cetaphil gentle wash and apply Skin Candy ointment. PhiWipes are an excellent alternative for washing and always available at an additional cost.

Repeat this process 3 to 5 times in the first 24 hours. If your appointment is in the late evening and you are unable to wash a minimum of 3 times apply ointment and PhiPatch before bed.

In the next 7 days maintain facial hygiene and apply Skin Candy after washing your face or showering. Do not soak your eyebrows, avoid hot and long showers. If brows feel itchy or flaky, which is normal, apply a thin layer of Skin Candy as needed.

• During the first week of healing avoid all creams, makeup and cleansers (except recommended) in the brow area. Avoid excessive sweating, facials and any grooming of brow hair like waxing or threading.

• In the next 30 days avoid acne treatments, regenerative creams, excessive sun exposure and always use SPF protection after 7 days.

Must be avoided during ALL 14 days post procedure:

  • Increased sweating or workouts.

  • Makeup or creams other than Skin Candy.

  • Swimming, jacuzzi, hot baths, or hot saunas.

  • Tanning of any kind or prolonged exposure to UV rays. *This includes airbrush/self tanning.

  • Any laser, facial, chemical treatments or peels.

  • Any creams containing Retin-A (in any form), Glycolic Acid, or any other AHA’s or BHA’s on face or neck.

  • Picking, peeling, or scratching of the Microbladed and/or Micropigmented area to avoid scarring.

  • Performing any kind of deep cleaning or dusting.

  • Do not dye or tweeze eyebrows one week before and after procedure.

    Known possible complications from Microblading and/or Micropigmentation are:

    Redness, swelling, puffiness, bruising, dry patches, & tenderness. Your new eyebrows will go through several phases during their healing cycle. The pigment will appear very natural looking immediately following and will appear darker the next day.

    Contact a physician if any signs or symptoms develop: fever, redness at the site, swelling, tenderness of the procedure site, elevated body temperature, red streaks going from the procedure side towards the heart, and/or any green/yellow discharge that is foul in odor.
