Failure to follow post-treatment instructions may cause loss of pigment, discoloration, or infection. Remember, colors appear brighter and more sharply defined immediately following the procedure. As the healing progresses, color will soften. A touch-up procedure may or may not be necessary. Final results cannot be determined until healing is complete. If a 3rd visit is needed it must be done within 2 months of the follow up appointment. There is a $300 charge for a 3rd application of lip color always and a $75 set up fee for eyebrows and eyeliner if done within 8 weeks after the 2nd appointment. Please call us if you have any questions or concerns! THERE ARE NO REFUNDS!!

EYELINER

Cleanse your eyeliner gently morning & evening with baby shampoo and pat dry. Using a fresh Q-Tip, apply a light coat of Vaseline to the tattooed area 1x a day, night only. It is normal for the pigment to fade 30-50% within the first two weeks. Do not touch the tattooed area with uncleaned fingers, as this will increase your risk of infection. Do not apply makeup or mascara on or near the tattooed area for 4 days. You can use a new tube of mascara after 4 days. Please contact your artist immediately should you experience any of the following symptoms: redness in or around the eye, matting or drainage, pain that becomes increasingly worse, sensitivity to light.

EYEBROWS

Days 2-7 wash daily to remove bacteria and dead skin. Gently wash your eyebrows each morning and night with water and an antibacterial soap, like Dial soap or Neutrogena, in a pump or bottle. With a light touch, use your cleansed fingertips to gently cleanse the eyebrows. Rub the area in a smooth motion for 10 seconds and rinse with water, ensuring that all soap is rinsed away. To dry, gently pat with clean tissue. Do Not use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA) or any exfoliants. Apply a rice grain amount of aftercare ointment with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area. Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The ointment should be barely noticeable on the skin. Never put the ointment on a wet or damp tattoo.

LIPS

Please use ice on and off for 2 hours after your appointment; it is extremely important! Cleanse your lips with antibacterial soap, like Dial or Neutrogena, morning and night for the first 3 days. Use new Vaseline or Liprotek#7 on your lips all day every day for 10 days. It is normal for your lips to be chapped, dry, and tight. Please make sure you take your antiviral that was prescribed by your doctor, if you get a fever blister.
