Powder Brow Aftercare
Following the treatment aftercare instructions below is crucial to achieving a beautiful healed result. Not following the aftercare instructions diligently will result in suboptimal healing.
Always practice good hand hygiene, to help avoid infection, do not touch the brow area without washing your hands thoroughly.
The cleanser and balm supplied is for both your tattoo sessions. On the day of your treatment:
Following your treatment the skin will start to produce lymph fluid. For today only, gently dab the brow area with a lightly damp cotton pad every 2 hours. Use the saline ampule and cotton pads provided. Do not rub or wipe, gentle dabbing only.
Days 1-10: Cleanse and Moisturise
Cleanse Twice Daily: Starting the morning after your treatment, cleanse your brows morning and night using the cleanser provided. Using your fingertips, very gently wash your brows area in a circulate motion. Do not scrub.
Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the brow area with clean lukewarm water, making sure all the residual soap is removed.
Pat Dry: Gently pat the brow area dry with a clean disposable paper towel. Do not rub.
Apply Aftercare Balm: Once the brow area is completely dry, using a q-tip, apply a very thin layer of aftercare balm evenly across the brow area. The balm should be barely noticeable on your skin. (a rice-grain amount of balm is sufficient for both brows) Do not over apply the balm as this will suffocate the skin and delay healing. Do not apply the balm on a wet or damp tattoo.
Important reminders:
You can stop cleansing and moisturising once all the flakes have fallen off. This can happen anywhere between 7 – 10 days.
Do NOT pick, scratch, or rub the flakes.
Avoid sweating, this includes intense workouts, saunas, hot showers. Low impact walk is fine.
Do not submerge your face in water and avoid Swimming pools, spa, ocean etc.
Avoid direct sun exposure.
Sleep on your back if possible and use a clean pillow case.
Do not apply any makeup, or any other skincare products on or close to the brow area until your brows are fully healed.
Avoid facial, chemical peels and microdermabrasion for at least 4 weeks.
Do not panic if your tattoo looks lighter or patchy during the healing process. This is completely normal. It can take the full 6 weeks to see the true colour and final healed result. Have patience and trust the process. If you have any questions or concerns, just get in touch. Remember it is a 2- step process, your 2nd session is where the magic happens.
Taking care of your cosmetic tattoo once healed.

Do not apply active skin care products directly on to your brow. E.g. vit C, retinol, other antiaging ingredients.
