The Ombre Brows After-Care
(Healing stages process) can take 7-15 days/ varies from person.
--------------------------------------
FIRST DAY CARE:
Please remove excess lymph fluid from your eyebrows with a clean tissue/Q-Tip.
Clean your brows with a gentle cleanser, then apply ointment using a clean Q-Tip or your fingertips 2-3 times a day. (Gentle washing the brows is not going to cause pigment loss).
------------------------------------
DAILY CARE:
Do not splash water on your brows, just pat the area (use a round cotton, wet it with tap water then very lightly wipe over your brows), then apply ointment using a clean Q-Tip or your fingertips 2-3 times a day, throughout the healing process until brows are completed peeled (Use clean Q-Tip on each side to prevent cross contamination).
You will notice brows flaking, scabbing and itching (in the first 4-12 days) is common as the skin heals. This is normal and never try to touch, scratch or remove them, to avoid pigmentation loss, infection or scarring.
In the shower, just wash your body and keep your head (brows) away.
AVOID FOR 2 WEEKS:
No exercising until brows are completed peeled (to avoid sweating).
Avoid Retin-A, AHA, Glycolic Acids, exfoliants and anti-aging products on your treated area.

No hot tubs, sauna, pools, and the sea during the entire healing process
No Brows makeup up during healing time

After the healing process is complete, take care of your brows by using sunscreen or moisturizer.
