3 days before your procedure:

-
For the eyeliner procedure, have lash extensions removed. (eyeliner procedure)

You may want to set reminders to assist you with these important dates.
If you plan on being in the sun or sweating (raising core body temperature) within 7 days after your eyebrow procedure, I suggest purchasing Sun and Sweat Protection by Phi Brows ($20, as available).
The procedure area is to remain dry, even while showering. I provide eyebrow shields.
Additional Information:
New Clients may have a Consultation Meeting or a combined Consultation Meeting & Procedure Appointment(s), followed 4 to 6 weeks later by a Follow-up Visit, a 1-2 hour meeting to add more pigment, shape additions, and more saturation. A Follow-up visit is an additional charge, see Online Booking for price.
Be prepared for the initial color intensity of your procedure to be significantly sharper, brighter, or darker than what is expected for the final outcome. It will take time for this transition based upon how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates.
While these tattooed colors may initially simulate the exact color and tone desired, they will not always remain a perfect match. Tattooed colors are constant, while your own skin color will vary depending on exposure to cold, heat, sun, and circulatory changes. For example, if your skin tans and you had a scar camouflage, your surrounding skin will become darker in appearance than the treated area.
Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or redden, some clients feel it is best not to make any social plans for a day or two following any procedure. Caution: It is always best to avoid these procedures within months prior to important life events such as weddings, class reunions. Procedures may take longer than expected to be complete under some circumstances.
For First Procedure Appointment(s) combined with a Consultation Meeting, or Follow-up Visits and Maintenance Visits, please bring a picture or combination of pictures of your desired result, please avoid makeup in the procedure area, however, bring your conventional makeup if you desire similar colors for your procedure. Please do not wear mascara or lash extensions to an Eyeliner Procedure.
All permanent cosmetic procedures are recommended as multi-visits.
Aftercare
Proper care following your procedure is necessary to achieve the best results. If during your healing process you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of color is to be expected.
NOTE: The outcome of permanent cosmetic procedures is dictated by the canvas (your skin). The better condition your skin is in, the better the final result will be.
Very oily, dry, or sun damaged skin can be very difficult to achieve a beautiful, even result. Mature clients may need an additional one to two weeks healing for the final results to appear.
The better you take care of your skin and protect it from UV rays, the better the outcome and lifespan of the permanent cosmetics procedures.
For the first 24-hours
Cotton-tipped applicators may be used to gently remove debris from eye lid.
Eye wash may be used to remove debris from surface of eye.
Wash your hands before touching any treated area.
Follow Aftercare Guidelines for Eyebrows, Aftercare Guidelines for Eyeliner.
For first 2-days.
DO NOT wear contact lenses.
You may resume wearing your contact lenses as soon as your eyes return to their pre-tattooed condition. Ice packs protected with a cloth may be applied as necessary to reduce swelling.
Sleeping slightly elevated helps alleviate swelling sometimes seen in the morning after facial procedures.
For first 3-days:
No makeup.
The treated should remain as dry as possible.. If you get the area wet, pat dry it as soon as possible (do not rub). Do not expose the area directly under a shower spray, no scrubbing the area, do not swim or sit in a spa, and do not soak your body where the area is submerged in water.
For first 7-days
Do not expose your healing skin to direct shower spray, skin creams, ointments, or lotions other than what you have been instructed to use.
On Day 8 and everyday following
Use a good sunscreen daily- even lips require protection. Sun exposure will fade your permanent cosmetics.
For first 2-weeks
avoid ANY method of hair removal; avoid eyelash or eyebrow tinting or eyelash curling.
Do not expose your healing skin to direct sun, tanning beds, hot tubs (tub bath if body area treated), saunas, salt water, chlorinated pools, or extremely hot water.
If during your healing process you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
Do not expose the area to dirty or unsanitary conditions. Wearing glasses outdoors is a good way to protect new eyeliner from dust, ect.
Some itching is normal. DO NOT PICK, PEEL, OR SCRATCH the treated area or your color may heal unevenly and you risk scarring and infection. Use Q-tip to lightly poke the area to relieve itching.
If you are planning chemical exfoliation or other medical procedure, avoid procedure area.
If you donate blood, Red Cross and Community Blood Center policy in Texas allows you to donate after permanent cosmetic tattooing in a licensed/regulated clinic which we are.
Proper care following your procedure is necessary to achieve the best results. If during your healing process you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
