🖤 Pre-care for all PMU 🖤

  • Avoid Retinols/ Retinas, any heavy skin treatment (lightening, brightening, anti aging) for at least 2 weeks

  • No sun exposure to treatment area 72 hours prior to appointment

  • No sweating/exercising the morning of your appointment.

  • No caffeine the day of your appointment

  • No new medications/supplements/vitamins 2 weeks before appointment

(Any medications you’re currently taking need to be disclosed before booking your appointment)

For Eyeliner: No lash serums 2 weeks before appointment

For Lips: GENTLY exfoliating (with wet cloth, or lips specific exfoliation product) the night before your appointment and immediately applying balm/moisturizer to the lips recommended.

This helps color implantation during the procedure.

✨ WHAT TO EXPECT DURING PMU HEALING ✨

Following your aftercare instructions as closely as possible is extremely important in supporting your skin through the healing process.

Healing will vary from client to client depending on skin type, lifestyle, and the service performed, but there are several things that are completely normal during healing:

• Slight tenderness, redness, or minor swelling

• The treated area will appear much darker and more vibrant immediately after your appointment

• Color will remain darker and bolder until the flaking phase is complete. Being mentally and physically prepared for this stage is very important 🖤

• Flaking and dryness can last up to 2 weeks for some clients

AFTER FLAKING, THE COLOR MAY APPEAR: FADED, CLOUDY, PATCHY, AND / OR EVEN ALMOST NON-EXSISTENT.

This is completely normal and is known as the “ghosting phase.” During this stage, the skin is still healing beneath the surface.

The color will gradually reappear and soften as the healing process continues, typically settling by around Week 4.

✨ HEALING IS A PROCESS ✨

Permanent makeup does not heal overnight and it is definitely not considered healed within 1–2 weeks after your procedure. Your skin needs time to regenerate and fully reveal the healed result.

If you have concerns regarding color, saturation, retention, or changes you may want made to the treated area, I kindly ask that you wait a minimum of 4 weeks before reaching out, as the area is still actively healing during this time.

Please keep in mind that no adjustments can safely be made to the skin before 6–8 weeks healed. Any concerns or desired changes can be addressed during your follow-up appointment 🖤

My goal is always to keep you informed, comfortable, and confident throughout your PMU experience.

Please never hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns 🫶🏻

🖤 Post Care 🖤

Brows:

  • Brows will need to be gently patted daily with dampened cotton round/towel. This is your “cleanse” step!

  • No direct contact with water on brows for 7-10 days (until flaking is done)

  • Before showering, cleanse the face and brow area first. Tilt shower head down to keep face from getting directly in water.

  • When flaking/peeling stage is done (normally 7-10 days after procedure) you may get the brow area wet.

  • Aftercare gel needs to be applied 1-2 times a day.

  • It is strongly advised that you avoid all sun, sweating and exercise for at least 7 days.

  • After flaking stage completes the brow area may appear lighter than desired or in some areas like the color has disappeared. This is called a “ghosting” phase and is part of healing.

  • Color will resurface by 4 week mark. If you still have areas you want to tweak after this time frame, we can do so at your second session.

Lips:

  • Color will be bold and very saturated when first done

  • Day of appointment plan to drink from a straw and avoid any spicy foods

  • Gently pat cleanser over the lips and immediately rinse. No scrubbing or exfoliating.

  • Prepare for flaking to be at its peak for normally 1-2 days within the first week of healing. At this time you’ll need to apply provided balm/gel on the lips frequently throughout the day.

  • Do not pick or pull at any chapped areas of lips. This will remove color and cause scar tissue to form.

  • *lip color will cycle and change throughout healing. It may look too light one day or even dark the next.

  • We cannot judge the outcome of your first session no sooner than 4 weeks. Any tweaks or changes to lips can be made during your second session.

Eyeliner:

  • Gently cleanse daily

  • No scrubbing or rubbing the area

  • In first 2-3 days some light bruising or redness may be present.

  • No lash extensions for 4 weeks

  • No lash serums for 6 weeks

  • Avoid mascara use for 3 weeks
