Post-Procedure Guidelines Your Way to Perfect Permanent Makeup
Congratulations on your stunning new Permanent Makeup! The key to achieving that flawless, lasting beauty lies in your aftercare routine. Here's your comprehensive Post-Procedure Guidelines to ensure your Permanent Makeup heals perfectly:
General Recommendations:
1. 🌧️Keep it Dry: For the first few days after your procedure, avoid getting the treated area wet. This includes keeping it dry during showers and baths. Water can interfere with the healing process.
2. 💄Avoid Makeup: Steer clear of applying makeup to the treated area for at least a week. This allows the skin to heal without any interference.
3. ☀️Skip Sun Exposure: Protect the treated area from direct sunlight and tanning beds during the healing process. UV rays can cause pigments to fade prematurely.
4. 🙅🏻♀️Be Gentle: Refrain from touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated area. Let it heal naturally to avoid any potential complications.
5. 🏊♀️Avoid Swimming and Saunas: Stay away from swimming pools, hot tubs, and saunas for at least a week. Prolonged exposure to water can disrupt the healing process.
6. 💧Use Recommended Products: If your technician recommends specific aftercare products, use them as directed. These products are often designed to promote healing and preserve the pigment.
7. 🧴Moisturize (if advised): Depending on the technique used, your technician may recommend applying a specialized healing ointment or cream. Follow their instructions carefully.
8. 🚫No Facials or Exfoliation: Avoid facials, chemical peels, or any treatments that involve exfoliation in the treated area until it has fully healed.
9. 🍂Expect Flaking: It's normal for the treated area to develop some flakiness during the healing process. Do not pick at or peel off any scabs or dry skin; let it come off naturally.
10. 📅Attend Follow-Up Appointments: If your technician schedules a Touch-Up session, make sure to attend it. This session is essential for perfecting the results.
11. ⏳Be Patient: Permanent makeup takes time to settle into its final color and appearance. The full healing process can take several weeks.
12. 📜Follow Individual Instructions: Always follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by your technician, as different techniques may have slightly different requirements.
Remember that everyone's healing journey is unique and while these are general guidelines, it's crucial to follow the instructions provided by your technician, as they may have specific recommendations tailored to your procedure and skin type. Proper aftercare ensures the best results and a smooth healing process.
Our recommendation is to come back for a Refresh every 18-24 months to keep your PMU always looking fresh.
