Preparing for your Eyebrow Appointment

For optimal healed results, it is important to follow the instructions below

No alcohol or caffeine 48 hours prior to your appointment. Alcohol consumption will increase your level of sensitivity to pain regardless of the numbing application. It will also increase your likelihood of swelling post procedure.
Avoid sun and tanning one week prior to procedure
Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Advil/Ibuprofen 24 hours prior to procedure
Stop taking Omega 3/Fish oil one week prior to procedure
No eyebrow waxing or to procedure
Refrain from using any Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) products close to the eyebrow area two weeks prior to and for two weeks after your procedure. Check your moisturizer, face wash, BB/CC creams
Discontinue glycolic, chemical peels and Retin-A 4 weeks prior
No botox two weeks before and after around the eye and eyebrow area
Must be off Accutane for 1 year prior to scheduled appointment
Please note that you will feel more sensitive during your menstrual cycle

Please be advised that the healing process may take longer if you do not take proper precautionary measures

Immediately After: Absorb

Gently blot the brow area with a clean tissue to absorb excess lymph fluid. Do this every 5 minutes for the full day until the oozing has stopped. Removing this liquid is important as it will prevent hardening of the lymphatic fluid

Day 1-7: Wash

Wash eyebrows daily (morning and evening) to remove build up of oil, bacteria and dead skin. Use a gentle soap like Cetaphil or Cera-Ve. Wash lightly for 10 seconds and rinse thoroughly with cool water. Pat dry with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA) or any exfoliants.

Day 1-7: Moisturize

Apply a rice grain amount of the given ointment with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area. Be sure not to over-app as this will suffocate the skin and delay healing. The ointment should be barely noticeable on the skin. NEVER put the ointment on wet or damp skin.

Important Reminders

Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate away. Picking can cause scarring or loss of colour
Avoid hot, sweaty exercise for 1 week
No facials, botox, chemical treatment or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks
Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for 4 weeks after the procedure. Wear a hat when outdoors
Avoid heavy sweating and long hot showers for the first 10 days. Limit your showers to 5 minutes so you do not create too much steam
Avoid sleeping on your face for the first 10 days
Avoid topical makeup, including sunscreen on the treatment area
DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch the treated area
No anti-aging or acne products on the brow area. This causes fading and discoloration
