Aftercare guide.

For the first 24 to 48 hours after most beauty or skin-related services:

• Keep the treated area clean
• Avoid touching the area with unwashed hands
• Avoid heavy sweating
• Avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, and pools
• Avoid direct sun exposure
• Avoid tanning beds
• Avoid harsh skincare products on the treated area
• Avoid exfoliants, acids, retinoids, scrubs, and peels unless approved by your artist
• Avoid makeup on freshly treated or irritated skin unless your artist says it is safe
• Do not pick, scratch, rub, or peel the treated area

Healing and results vary from person to person. Your skin type, lifestyle, aftercare, previous procedures, and natural healing response can all affect the final result.

This section applies to services such as powder brows, microshading, permanent brows, eyeliner, lip blush, and similar cosmetic tattooing services.

For the first 7 to 10 days:

• Keep the area clean and dry
• Do not pick, scratch, rub, or peel flakes
• Avoid makeup directly on the treated area
• Avoid sweating heavily
• Avoid swimming, sauna, steam room, hot yoga, and hot tubs
• Avoid direct sun and tanning
• Avoid facial treatments, peels, laser, microneedling, or exfoliation near the area
• Avoid retinol, acids, vitamin C, benzoyl peroxide, and strong active skincare near the treated area
• Sleep on a clean pillowcase
• Follow the balm or aftercare product instructions given by your artist

What to expect:

• The color may look darker at first
• Mild swelling or tenderness may occur
• Flaking or dryness may appear during healing
• The color may soften or look lighter before it settles
• Some unevenness during healing is normal
• Final results are usually evaluated after the skin has fully healed

Do not judge the final result too early. Permanent makeup often needs a perfection visit or touch-up after the initial healing period.

What to expect:

• Mild swelling or tenderness may occur
• Dryness and flaking are common

This section applies to scar camouflage, stretch mark camouflage, vitiligo camouflage, areola restoration, and related paramedical pigment services.

• Color may appear warmer, darker, lighter, or uneven during healing
• The treated area may go through visible healing stages
• Final pigment appearance can take time to settle
• Multiple sessions may be needed for best blending

Paramedical work is highly individual. Scar tissue, stretch marks, and reconstructed skin can retain pigment differently than untreated skin.

Some redness or sensitivity immediately after sugaring is normal and usually settles quickly.

• Avoid harsh clarifying shampoos unless instructed
• Avoid excessive heat styling for the first few days
• Use heat protection when styling
• Avoid tight hairstyles immediately after treatment
• Use recommended masks, conditioners, or leave-in products to maintain results

Treatment longevity depends on hair condition, washing frequency, home care, heat styling, water quality, and product use.

For special event makeup:

• Avoid touching your face throughout the day
• Blot oil gently instead of rubbing
• Keep lips refreshed with the recommended lip product
• Avoid heavy water exposure, steam, or rubbing
• Remove makeup gently at the end of the day
