  • How do I take care of my new brow tattoo?

    Day of (After the procedure):

    • After the procedure gently blot the area with a clean paper towel to absorb excess lymph fluid. Do this until the oozing stops

    Cleanse the area (Day 1-10)

    • Gently wash your brows morning and night with an unscented antibacterial soap.
    • Avoid cleansing products with acids and exfoliants

    Hydrate the area (Day 3-10)

    • Apply a tiny, rice grain amount of ointment (A&D or Aquaphor) on each brow.
    • DO NOT OVER APPLY OINTMENT as this will delay healing
    • If you have dry or normal skin apply a tiny rice grain amount 2x a day
    • If you are more on the oily side do not apply ointment at all

    10 days is the average healing time. Depending on how your skin takes it, it can take more or less time to heal.

  • What should I expect during the healing process? Healing is a key part of your brow transformation. Every client heals differently, but here’s a general idea of what’s normal after your PMU brow appointment:

    Day 1–2: Fresh & Bold

    Brows will appear darker and more defined than expected

    Mild redness, tenderness, or swelling is normal

    Day 3–5: Flaking & Peeling

    Scabbing or flaking will begin

    Brows may look uneven or patchy

    Do not pick, scratch, or peel — this can cause scarring or uneven color


    Day 6–10: Light & Faded

    Brows will lighten significantly — don’t worry, color will resurface

    Skin may still feel dry or slightly itchy

    Week 2–4: Softening & Settling


    Color starts to return and even out

    Brows take on a softer, more natural finish

    Full results won’t be visible until healing is complete

    Touch-Up is Key

    A touch-up at 6–8 weeks is part of the process and essential for refining your shape and color. This is the perfect time to address any fading, uneven areas, or adjustments. Please avoid picking at your brows during healing to ensure the best possible results.

  • Things to Avoid while your brows are healing

    Avoid During Healing (First 7–14 Days)
    Touching or picking the brows

    Getting brows wet (avoid pools, saunas, steam, and excessive sweating)

    Applying makeup or skincare directly on or near the brows

    Sun exposure or tanning beds

    Facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion

    Exfoliating products (like retinol, glycolic acid, or scrubs)

    Heavy workouts or excessive sweating

    Sleeping on your face or side

    Using oils or petroleum-based products on the brow area

    Hair dyeing or brow tinting

    Important
    Always follow your aftercare instructions closely. Allow your brows to heal naturally and fully before considering any additional treatments. Picking or exposing your brows to these elements can cause pigment loss, patchiness, or scarring.
