If a crust/scab appears on the pigmented surface, DO NOT FORCE THE REMOVAL BY
PICKING, SCRATCHING, OR WASHING!!! PIGMENT MAY BE REMOVED ALONG WITH
THE CRUST!!! The brows will start off dark and will flake over the ten days. Once the brows
have flaked, it takes another few weeks for the colored area to heal. The area can
sometimes be pink or hazy during the healing process. I call this the Ghost phase. It takes
at least one follow-up for desired results. Yearly touch-ups are normally required depending
on how well your skin holds ink.
Showering
Shower with your back to the water to keep water, shampoo, and conditioner from getting
into the pigmented areas. Have a light application of lubrication on the pigmented area
during showers. Limit your shower time 5-10 minutes.
What to expect?
These are just estimates on when they will happen considering everyones skin is different,
But the expectations are the same.
Day 1-3
The eyebrows are approximately 20-25% bolder and darker in width than they will be when
healed. Expect light to moderate swelling and redness. The skin’s redness causes the color
of the pigment to appear darker. There is some swelling, although difficult to actually see
due to the thickness of the skin in the eyebrow area. This will subside. Exfoliation, which
begins in a few days, will cause the excess pigment surrounding the eyebrow to flake away
and a more narrow appearance will result. New skin will heal over the pigmented area and
result in a softer appearance of your eyebrows. Don’t be concerned that your eyebrows
initially appear darker and heavier in size than you desire. This is all part of the process.
Week 1
Eyebrows start to itch and will appear a bit thicker in texture. Exfoliation begins.
Week 2
The skin begins to flake, peeling from the outside edges first.
Week 3
Color finishes flaking off and appears softer and grayer for a few days until color clarifies.
#GhostPhase
Week 4
The color has lightened from its initial overly-dark appearance. For the next few days, the
color may now be lighter than what the final color will be.
Week 5-8
The final color begins to stabilize and show through. The color will continue to soften as the
healing process completes
Aftercare Lips
Lips Aftercare
Day 0
● Apply ice for the first 2-24 hours to reduce swelling.
● Week 1+
○ Keep moist with Aquaphor for the next 3-4 days, and then switch to lip balm
or lipstick with an SPF of 15 or greater as the sun tends to fade lip color
quickly.
○ Lips may appear to have too much color in the days following the
procedure.
○ You may add makeup to soften the color.
○ Scars on the lips from fever blisters cause pigment removal.
○ Be careful as you pull on shirts or other garments over your face that you
don’t brush the new tattoo accidentally. Also, don’t put any makeup on after
treatment. You might cause an infection or otherwise damage the tattoo.
○ Avoid biting or licking your lips as much as possible, and make sure no food
or drink stays on there.
○ Avoid Contact with Clothing, Makeup, Food and Sunlight.
○ Drink out of Straws
○ Take care not to expose your face to the sun for about two weeks after you
get your tattoo. The sun will fade the pigment, which is still settling into your
skin. Even after the tattoos have healed, be consistent with applying
sunscreen to those areas of your face, to avoid fading.
○ If you get cold sores or have ever had one in the past, you will need an
antiviral prescription from your doctor before a lip procedure. Or Lysine
which is sold over the counter. I suggest starting it As soon as you book,
unless its months out.
○ Lips can take 1-3 treatments for desired depth of color.
○ Keeping lips moist daily will lengthen the time the pigment will
last…everyone heals different.
What to expect During Healing (Lips)
● Day 1
○ Swelling, tender, heavy thick lipstick look with a reddish brick color
affect.For the first few days, the color is darker than it will appear when
healed.
● Day 2
○ Slight swelling, reddish and tender with a slight metallic flavor.
● Day 3
○ Less swelling, thicker texture, sore, hot feeling before exfoliation with an
orange color affect.
● Day 4
○ Exfoliation begins, very chapped lips. The color will become lighter as the
epidermis sloughs off. It will appear that you have lost all of your color,
however, when your lips have healed completely, the dermal layer will
gradually become darker.
● Day 5
○ Very chapped but almost finished with first chapping stage.
● Day 6
○ A soft rich color begins to appear.
● Days 7-13
○ Lip color disappears and the “frosty” chapping stage begins as a
whitish/grayish haze on the lips.
● Day 14
○ Color blooms from within more and more each day until day 21.(3 weeks)
● Day 21
○ Healing complete; the color you see is the color you have. Your lips will
remain a bit dry for a month or two, use a good lip balm and they will return
to normal, but with full color!
○ If a crust/scab appears on the pigmented surface,
DO NOT FORCE
THE REMOVAL BY PICKING, SCRATCHING, OR WASHING!!!
PIGMENT
MAY BE REMOVED ALONG WITH THE CRUST!!!
