Eyebrow & Freckles  Aftercare

Day 1

    • Using your CLEAN hands blot the area throughout the 1st day and continue to blot every 5 minutes with a clean dry tissue until “oozing” stops.
    • Make sure to sleep on a clean pillow case for the next two weeks, changing when needed.

 Days 2-7

    • Your brows/freckles will appear darker.
    • The morning after your treatment, gently wash the area with fragrance free soap and water using a circular motion.
    • Apply a very tiny amount of the healing cream given to you by the artist. The application should be thin, like applying lip balm. 
    • DO NOT MASSAGE OR RUB. AVOID SCRUBBING. ABSOLUTELY NO PICKING! 
    • Do not introduce new products to that area that have not been approved by your artist. 
    • Use the cream twice per day if you have normal/dry skin.
    • Use once per day if you have oily skin.

 

Day 7-14

Please Wait 2 Weeks Before:

    • Applying makeup on the brows/freckles.
    • Swimming in pools, using hot tubs, saunas, or going to the beach.
    • Long, hot, or steamy showers.
    • Performing activities that will produce sweat.
    • Tanning or using anti-aging products (including retinol) on the brows/freckles.

 

IMPORTANT!

    • NEVER touch your fresh tattoo for any reason.
    • If you experience scabbing, crusting, or flaking please let your tattoo exfoliate naturally. 
    • In the rare event you suspect an infection, please email 12ozstudios@gmail.com.
    • NO SUN for 30 days after your procedure. (Wearing a hat and/or sunglasses WILL NOT be sufficient).
    • Avoid alcohol consumption directly after your procedure. 
    • Your brows/freckles will be dark and bold at first, then will become lighter once healed (roughly 30% lighter). The color will take 3-4 weeks to fully adjust. 
    • Once healed, sweating regularly and using certain skin products can cause hair strokes to turn into powder brows. 
    • Using sunblock is the best investment to help the longevity of your tattoo. 
    • Avoid laser, waxing, chemical treatments, or any facial procedures until your brows are fully healed.
    • Normal swelling will last 2-4 days. This will cause the tattoo to look larger than it is. Once the swelling has subsided it will look smaller. 
    • Touch ups are an important part of the procedure. Perfection is not to be expected after the initial procedure.
