BROW CARE GUIDELINES
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
​
Please follow our strict Pre-Care Guidelines closely. These have been designed for your safety and to esnure the best results from your treatment. Failure to do so may result in your appointment not being able to go ahead. Please note that your booking fee is non-refundable.
We advise you wear your normal makeup on the day of your appointment. This helps us to get a better indication of your style, preferences and expectations.
If you have had any recent surgery or a medical condition, we require written consent from your GP before treatment can go ahead.
Please note that pigment implantation results may vary depending on your PH balance, skin type, tone, characteristics and condition.
If you have any further questions, please do get in touch.
A PATCH TEST MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE YOUR PROCEDURE. THIS WILL BE POSTED OUT TO YOU PRIOR.

You may notice a shed or peel - Do not pick the skin and let any flaking come away naturally.

The brows will darken for a few days as the pigment oxidises. This is normal and your final, healed result will show a drop of 15-30% in colour density (this can be altered on your top-up appointment)
-
Avoid sweating or strenuous exercise for 5 days
-
Do not get any products on your brows for 7 days

YOUR SKIN WILL BE HEALED IN 7 DAYS. BUT YOUR FINAL HEALED RESULT WILL BE VISIBLE 4-6 WEEKS POST TOP-UP SESSION. WE THEN ADVISE COLOUR MAINTENANCE APPOINTMENTS ROUGHLY EVERY 12-18 MONTHS, DEPENDING ON YOUR SKIN TYPE.
The above are both short and long term guidelines to be aware of for the healing stages and long term maintenance of any SPMU tattoo results**
BLOT. AVOID. NOURISH
Your three main steps on day 1 of the procedure are extremely important to follow for the best healed result.
