Aftercare & Tips
Aftercare Treatment:
DAYS (1-7): Wash daily with cool sterile water to remove bacteria, build up of product, oils, and dead skin. (Don't worry, THIS DOES NOT REMOVE THE PIGMENT!)
Gently wash the area each night outside of the shower with cool water and gentle soap or an unscented cleanser like Dial Soap, Cetaphil, or baby shampoo. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to gently cleanse the area.
Rub the area in the direction of your hair strokes for 10 seconds and rinse with cool, sterile water ensuring that all soap is rinsed away.
To dry, gently pat with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA), or exfoliants.
Moisturize and hydrate
Apply a tiny, rice grain amount of the Tina Davies Aftercare 3 times a day with a clean cotton swab and spread it across the treated area.
Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The product should be barely noticeable on the skin.
NEVER put the product on a wet or damp tattoo.
DAYS (7-14)
Your eyebrows are going to begin to scabbing and cracking. This is part of the healing process. Keep them dry & discontinue washing them & applying the after care.
DO NOT do the following:
Expose fresh skin to the sun (lay out in the sun, go tanning) If you are at the beach, pool, on a boat, etc, make sure that you are wearing a hat/visor to help protect your brows from the sun.
Get them wet, take quick showers that are not too hot to avoid steam.
Use retinoids or exfoliants on your face.
Picking the scabs will result in pulling out the color & scarring, please let them flake off naturally.
Sleep on your face, please try and sleep on your side or back.
Work out or any activity that could make you sweat.
Please do not wear makeup during your 2 weeks healing. You are allowed to wear mascara & under-eye concealer ONLY.
Long hot showers for the first 10 days.
Avoid face-down swimming, lakes, and hot tubs for the first 10 days,
Sunscreen on the area, until fully healed.
DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch the treated area.
After 2 weeks healed:
You are able to wash your face with a gentle cleanser and resume your regular skincare routine. Note, you must continue to avoid using the items listed on your Pre-Care instructions.
You may resume wearing makeup.
Keep in mind that it takes approximately 25-28 days after you are done healing to see the full effect of your brow transformation.
Reminders and Tips:
You can use a cotton round, witch hazel, and a baby wipe to clean around your brows while healing or you can use Cetaphil to clean around your forehead & brows.
You can use grape seed oil to also act as a moisturizer. Feel free to apply on your forehead, around your brows, eyes, etc.
Washing your hair may be a little difficult. You may want to schedule your hair appointment during your 2 weeks of healing allowing you to get a great shampoo.
Use a fresh pillowcase while you sleep.
Avoiding retinoids will help maintain the longevity of your eyebrows.
Exposing your eyebrows to the sun will cause them to fade. Wear a hat or visor while you are in the sun and apply sunscreen to them.
Although shaping your eyebrows is optional, getting them shaped will keep them looking fresh and their best.
