  • Not every client heals well which is why touch-up is needed. It is considered a perfection session to go over any light spots that didn't take. Reasons could be due to excessive sun exposure, existing scarring, bleeding during the session etc. It is also a reason to go darker especially if you're worried about going too dark the first time.

    If you feel your brows healed amazing after the initial session and you love the way it looks then a touchup is not required.

  • Touch-up appointment can be scheduled anytime after 6-8 weeks and no sooner than 4 weeks. This is optional. Touch-up session is considered a perfection session to go over any spots that did not pick up pigment or if you would like to go darker/bigger etc. After touch-up, they should last you 3-5 years. Touch-ups are not done frequently to maintain skin integrity.

Healing time varies from 10-14 days. You may wash with water and gently pat dry as needed. 2. Apply a grain size of A&D/Vaseline/Aquaphor ointment using a Q-tip on each brow. Apply the ointment twice a day, morning and night. If you have oily skin, apply once at night. It is crucial that during the healing period that you maintain facial hygiene and AVOID:​

    • Touching or picking the eyebrows (apply ointment with Q-tip). Picking can lead to color loss, scarring and infection (especially if hands are not clean).

    • Any makeup on the eyebrow area

    • Workouts that involve a lot of sweating; sauna, facial massage and steaming

When the flakes fall off, some areas of the brow may appear too light but with time, the color will resurface.

  • Avoid sunbathing, solarbrium, light therapies, chemical peelings, fruit acids, microdermabrasion, creams that contain regeneration factors. Use of antibiotics and hormonal therapy can speed pigment fading. After 14 days, apply sunscreen to the brows when exposed to sunlight to promote longevity. Other ways to extend the color of your brows: being gentle around the brow area when washing your face or when exfoliating avoid the brow area. Always avoid laser treatments over the treated area (fraxel, laser, IPL) because it can destroy the pigments.
