After Care
Follow the steps below for the best retenion and healed results.
- Cleanse the area with water and a clean cotton bud.
- Apply your vitamin A&D cream 3 times a day for 5 days using a clean cotton bud.
- Remember healing will take to up to one week, and it is normal for the colour to fade by up to 70% in the first 2 weeks.
- Also remember that it is normal for there to be small scabbing on the treated areas which will fall off within a few days. This may cause you to lose a patch here or there.
- Use a pencil to fill in any gaps after healing before we top it up.
- However, do not apply makeup to the treated area during the 5 days following your treatment.
- Do not touch the treated area with your fingers.
- Do not use soaps, cleansers or creams on the treated areas.
- Do not use any abrasive products such as rough towels or similar.
- Avoid any heat treatments such as saunas and steam rooms in week 1-2, as the treated areas should be as dry as possible. This includes hot showers.
- Do not use any form of bleach or depilatory products.
- Protect the pigment’s retention by putting sunscreen on the treated area, once they are healed.
- For lip treatments: If you have a history of cold sores, use Zovirax for the next 5 days.
