AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIP BLUSH OR LIP TATTOO Please follow these instructions to improve and prolong the results of micropigmentation. Even when following these aftercare instructions, fading, blurring or poor retention may still happen depending on your skin and lifestyle. Everyone heals and accepts the pigment differently. How your body heals is out of our control. Healed results will vary between each individual client, based on their skin type, their skin condition, immune system, metabolism, overall health, and lifestyle. Our aftercare instructions are meant to help you achieve the best results and reduce the chances of getting an infection. ​ These instructions are not a guarantee that your results will last for any certain period of time, nor is it guaranteed problems will not arise. ​ These are the general instructions for the first 7-10 days or until the peeling, scabbing, flaking has resolved. ​ Do not let your freshly tattooed lips touch anything for the first 3 days. Don’t touch your lips or pick at the scabs or skin that starts peeling off. This is part of the pigment settling process and the healing process. Don’t get the lips soaking wet – no long hot showers, no swimming, no excessive sweating (this includes saunas and steam baths). Refrain from working out. Don’t get toothpaste on your lips. Don’t get teeth whitening. Don’t put any makeup or care products on the area besides the prescribed aftercare ointment. Don’t eat spicy or very salty foods – they’ll sting. Don’t drink anything too hot – it’ll trigger swelling. Don’t drink alcohol – it will burn and dry out your lips further. Don’t expose your lips to the sunlight. No tanning in the sun or in tanning beds for 3-4 weeks. Don’t sleep on your face or don’t do any activities related to your lips. Do not let hot (temperature wise), spicy, oily, and salty foods touch the lips during the first three days after the procedure. Using a straw may be helpful, but this is a personal preference. Keep the lips moistened with organic lip balm. Clean with gentle soap, water, and fingertips twice daily starting the evening after the procedure. After dab lips gently to dry. ​ Samples of gentle soaps: Dial, Dove, Cetaphil Once dry, text a clear and well-lit picture to Arawan Artistry at 847-421-7400 for evaluation. You are giving your permission to communicate via texting when you send a text message. If you notice any unusual symptoms or extreme irritation throughout your lip blushing healing process, contact your artist. You may be having an allergic reaction, or an infection. ​ Here is a general timeline for lip blush healing. ​ DAY 1 Your freshly tattooed lips are swollen, tender, and the color is quite intense. ​ You need to start your lip blush aftercare routine as soon as half an hour or so after the treatment. The skin starts oozing lymph and you need to blot it off frequently to prevent a thick scab from forming. ​ Blot the area with a cotton pad dampened with sterile water every 30 minutes, or as often as your artist advises. Apply a thin layer of the aftercare ointment prescribed by your artist. ​ Refrain from eating for a few hours. Drink through a straw. ​ If you experience intense swelling, an ice pack may help. If you experience any pain, check with your artist if you can take an Ibuprofen. ​ DAYS 2-10 If you have painful blisters on your lips around day 2-3, please see a medical provider, and then call US immediately so we can help monitor and track your healing closely. CALL FIRST 847-421-7400 ​ The swelling should subside by day 3, and your lips will start peeling. ​ The peeling will last for about 7 days, and once the scabby film falls off, the lip tattoo aftercare is over. For most people, it’s day 10 after the procedure, but if they’re still peeling at this point, keep it up until it stops. ​ Clean your lips after every meal and at least once a day – with a mild alcohol-free soap and cool water. Do not rub and be very gentle. Dry the lips by tapping them with a cotton pad or a clean towel. ​ Apply the prescribed ointment after every cleaning, and whenever you feel your lips are getting tight and dry. Keeping them covered with a layer of aftercare cream prevents heavy scabbing, and protects the area from external contamination. ​ It’s also a good idea to put on SPF whenever you’re outdoors, as sunlight can speed up pigment fading. The skin recovery causes unpleasant sensations of dryness, tightness, and itching, all of which can be relieved if you moisturize the lips. ​ Apart from this, if you don’t clean the area properly and regularly and let lymph, dirt and dead skin cells build up, you risk developing an infection or irritation. ​ Do your best to stick to the lip tint tattoo aftercare routine to stay healthy, get maximum pigment retention, and make the whole experience more comfortable. ​ Extra Note: If you’ve ever had cold sores or herpes on your lips, you will need to take an antiviral medication a few days before and after the procedure. The tattooing can cause a cold sore flare-up, which can affect the results.

SKIN post treatment care 1. Preferably, no other products other than the products provided to you should be applied until the following day. ​ 2. Avoid washing your face for the first 6 hours. Use tepid (lightly warm) water for the initial 24 hours to rinse the treated area. No cleanser required at this time. ​ 3. Gently pat dry with a clean towel and follow with your aftercare products provided. The aftercare cream heals and also tightens your skin. Hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture Tom trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). You may apply moisturizer like Cetaphil to reduce dryness when the aftercare cream feels dry to touch. ​ 4. After 24 hours, you can use a gentle cleanser (example, Cetaphil or Cerave) to cleanse the face for the next 72 hours. ​ 5. Always make sure that your hands are clean when touching the treated area. Have a hand sanitizer or anti-bacterial wipes on hand. ​ 6. Avoid exposure to dust, pet dander and other irritants as best you can. You may experience a mild allergic reaction to pets and other things you typically do not react to within the first 24 hours. ​ 7. Your skin may feel warm and tight, like a mild sunburn. This is an expected outcome during the first few days of this treatment. ​ 8. Apply the aftercare products provided and moisturize with your favorite moisturizer or a product like Cetaphil or Cerave. ​ 9. You may also apply a cool, damp washcloth as desired for comfort. ​ 10. After the initial 24 hours, apply a broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen with a minimum SPF 30 for two weeks. A mineral-based, chemical-free sunscreen is highly recommended. ​ 11. Do not apply any makeup with an old makeup brush, especially if it is not clean. New makeup brushes, or freshly cleansed brushes, are best. ​ 12. After the therapy, nothing topical should be applied for at least 90 minutes. You may use a quality mineral makeup after 90 minutes of treatment. However, it is highly recommended that makeup and sunscreen not be applied for 24 hours after the procedure. ​ 13. For your first treatment (and treatments at .25mm in general), you can expect mild redness and swelling and a tight, warm sensation between 4 to 24 hours. ​ 14. Later treatments, or those with longer needling lengths may produce redness and swelling along with tiny flecks of redness for between 4 to 72 hours. These are easily covered with a quality mineral makeup. ​ 15. Mild skin sloughing may occur for a few days after the treatment. ​ 16. Mild acne and milia (tiny white bumps) can occur in rare cases. Don’t pick; they should go away in a few days. ​ 17. Trans-Epidermal Water Loss is a common temporary side effect and can leave you feeling dry through the first week. Keep your recommended moisturizer with you during the day and apply as frequently as necessary to avoid a dry sensation. ​ 18. The more you moisturize, the better your results will be. Do not exfoliate at least for 7 days. ​ 19. For at least 3 days post-treatment, do NOT use any Alpha Hydroxy Acids, Beta Hydroxy Acids, Retin-A, Retinol (Vitamin A), Vitamin C (in a low pH formula) or anything else perceived as “active” skincare. ​ 20. Avoid intentional and direct sunlight for at least 48 hours. No tanning beds! Ensure you have proper sun protection whenever you are out in the sun. ​ 21. Do not go swimming and avoid hot tubs, steam rooms and saunas for at least 24 hours post-treatment. ​ 22. No exercising or strenuous activity for the first 24 hours post-treatment; sweating and gym environments must be avoided during the first 72 hours post-treatment. ​ 23. If prolonged irritation occurs, please contact us or your practitioner, directly. ​ 24. Return for your follow-up treatment in about a month or as recommended.

What to know before getting permanent makeup or micropigmentation procedures? What to expect when getting permanent makeup or micropigmentation? ​ This form is designed to give the information needed to decide whether or not to undergo a permanent cosmetic and transformational restorative body art procedure. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Although elective courses are usually practical, no guarantees can be made that a specific client will benefit from the procedure. ​ Detailed Permanent Make-up and Micropigmentation Information ​ Permanent makeup and micropigmentation is a process of inserting pigment into the dermal layer of the skin, a form of tattooing. All instruments that enter the skin or come in contact with body fluids are single-use and disposed of afterward. Cross-contamination guidelines are strictly followed. Generally, the results are excellent. However, a perfect result is not a realistic expectation. It is common to need touch-ups after healing is completed. Initially, the color will appear much more vibrant or darker than the result. The pigment will fade over time, depending on skin condition and lifestyle, and will likely need to be touched up within six months to 3 years. ​ KNOWN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BODY ART PAIN: There could be pain even after the topical anesthetic. Anesthetics work better on some people than others. Please communicate with me how you are doing throughout the procedure. ​ INFECTIONS: The treated areas must be kept clean and only touched with freshly cleaned hands. If you follow the specific aftercare instructions provided to you, infection is highly unlikely. ​ UNEVEN PIGMENT: This can result from poor healing, infection, bleeding, or other causes. Your second session or follow-up appointment will help correct any uneven appearances. ​ ASYMMETRY: Our bodies are naturally asymmetric, but attention to detail and best efforts will be made to avoid asymmetry. Adjustments may be needed and can be done during the follow-up session to correct any unevenness. Breast reconstructive surgery may be asymmetric for various reasons, and the provider will make their best effort to create balance and symmetry. ​ EXCESSIVE SWELLING/BRUISING: Some people bruise and swell more than others. Bruising and swelling typically disappear within 1-5 days; ice packs may be used during this time. Some people do not bruise or swell at all. ​ ANESTHESIA: Topical anesthetics are used for numbing the area to be tattooed. Lidocaine, Tetracaine, and Epinephrine are used in cream and gel form. If you are allergic or sensitive to any of these, please inform your provider immediately. ​ GRANULOMAS: These are nodules that may form around material the body perceives as foreign, such as tattoo pigment particles. ​ KELOID FORMATION: If you are prone to developing keloids -- scars that grow beyond normal boundaries -- you are at risk of keloid formation from a tattoo. Keloids may form any time you injure or traumatize your skin. ​ REMOVAL: Despite advances in laser technology, removing a tattoo is a painstaking process, usually involving several treatments and considerable expense. Complete removal without scarring may be impossible. ​ MRI: Because pigments used in permanent cosmetic procedures contain inert oxides, a low-level magnet may be required if you need to be scanned by an MRI machine. You must inform your technician of any tattoos or permanent cosmetics. ​ ALLERGIC REACTION: Less than 0.25% of the population has a sensitivity or an allergic reaction, but this tiny possibility remains. Doing a patch test or a sensitivity test is recommended if you have had reactions in the past. ​ CHANGES IN APPEARANCE Any face or body art design will permanently change the appearance. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics cannot change results after a procedure or remove the effects of the permanent mark. This is a tattoo, and with time, pigments can and will fade or change according to metabolism, lifestyle, skin type, medications, age, smoking, alcohol, sun exposure, creams, and lotions. ​ THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH A SEVERE MEDICAL CONDITION AND TATTOOING A severe medical condition may require an appropriate physician’s note stating the medical situation and the clearance to proceed with cosmetic tattooing. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics and its providers are not accountable for any complications during your treatment due to undisclosed or inadequately treated medical conditions. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics, PLLC requests providing this medical clearance three days before your appointment, or the appointment may be canceled due to failure to provide a medical clearance note during the visit. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics will charge 100% for the scheduled time reserved when failure to provide the medical clearance. A new appointment with a new fee is required. ​ ONGOING PROCEDURE ASSESSMENTS The provider will constantly assess the skin's integrity during the procedure because too many passes may cause skin sloughing, potentially leading to scarring. ​ DIFFERENT SKIN TYPES Arawan Artistry Aesthetics provides no guarantees as to the result of any body art procedure. Some skin types will not accept or heal pigment consistently. Skin is unique, and Arawan Artistry Aesthetics cannot predict how a person’s skin will react to the procedure or how it may or may not accept color. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics and its providers cannot predict how many visits it will take to complete a permanent makeup procedure. Additional fees apply for each additional visit not included in the agreed-upon price and number of procedure sessions. ​ REFUSAL OF SERVICE ASSOCIATED WITH CERTAIN RISKS Arriving pregnant or breastfeeding, prone to keloid scarring, have problematic skin around the procedure area (pimples, blemishes, irritated skin, sunburn), being on blood thinners or contraindicated medications, have been on Accutane within the previous 12 months, or being under 18 years old. The provider will not be able to perform a service. The appointment with Arawan Artistry Aesthetics will be canceled, and this forfeits any deposit provided. ​ REFUSAL OF SERVICE ASSOCIATED WITH PROBLEMATIC SKIN SURROUNDING THE TARGET AREA Arriving with any of the contraindications mentioned on the client intake form or if there is problematic skin around the procedure area, such as pimples, blemishes, irritated skin, sunburn, and other skin conditions that can risk personal well-being. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics will not perform the procedure, which forfeits the commitment fee for the appointment. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics may allow the appointment to be rescheduled once without losing the commitment fee. Failure to reschedule an appointment due to problematic skin around the procedure area at least at a reasonable time (three days in advance) will result in a 100% charge for the scheduled commitment for the time reserved. A new appointment with a new fee is required. ​ REFUSAL OF SERVICE Arawan Artistry Aesthetics has the right to decline the appointment requests if this body art treatment at any time may put your safety or well-being at risk or if we are otherwise not the right fit for what you seek. ​ STRONG FACIAL MUSCLE PULLS, AND ONE SIDE IS HIGHER (ASYMMETRY) Almost everyone has a dominant eyebrow or their favorite eyebrow. Being someone with strong muscle pulls may make the eyebrows appear unbalanced even though they are balanced when relaxed. Usually, everyone carries one side of their body higher. Talking when the provider builds the template creates facial expressions, leading to muscle tension and movement. Staying still and quiet will be helpful to the provider in finding the appropriate balance. WHAT GOES ON IN THE PROCEDURE The provider will continue to check the shape throughout the procedure, requiring the patient to sit up a few times or be under different lighting and angles to ensure the eyebrow shape has been maintained and has not shifted. The provider is not liable for any changes or adjustments from the initial design during the procedure. ​ THE TIME ALLOTTED IN CREATING THE TEMPLATE OR MAPPING PROCESS Everyone is genuinely asymmetrical, and the provider optimizes the asymmetry by developing balance to enhance the best features and preferred shape. But, after one hour of creating the design or proper anatomical template, if the provider and the patient cannot agree on the form or shape drawn, Arawan Artistry Aesthetics may discontinue the appointment and will forfeit the commitment fee or reservation fee. If both Arawan Artistry Aesthetics and the patient agree to continue past one hour for template creation, then the patient may be charged an additional fee for the provider’s time. ​ PIGMENT RETENTION AND SLOW METABOLISM The treatments may or may not work depending on how a person’s body retains products. When the patient agrees to proceed with the treatment, then they take on the risk of low retention and slow metabolism for any consequences. There is NO guarantee in permanent cosmetic makeup and transformational restorative tattooing, as the pigment is deposited lightly on the top layers of the skin. Additional sessions may be required to obtain optimal results; other charges will apply for time, labor, and materials. Each client is different, and each body heals or retains pigment differently. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics and its providers can never guarantee results. A pencil or powder may still be preferred, as fading, blurring, or poor pigment retention can still occur. ​ PIGMENT REACTIONS WITH SKIN PRODUCTS Serums, creams, and topicals penetrate deep into the skin and can potentially cause the implanted pigment to migrate and change color over time. Keep such products away from the pigmented areas. Using glycolic acid, other chemical exfoliants, or natural exfoliants, such as mixing salt and water on the area with body art, will result in expedited fading of the pigment. Any highly vascular regions of the body will metabolize products faster, which can quickly fade pigment. ​ THE HEALING PROCESS WITH BODY ART TATTOOING A minimum of six weeks is recommended for the healing process to ensure that the skin has completed its entire turnover regeneration cycle. Everyone heals and accepts pigment differently, and how the body heals is out of Arawan Artistry Aesthetics and its provider’s control. Sometimes even with proper after-care, fading, blurring, or poor retention can still happen. Patients may want to continue using other cosmetics, such as a make-up pencil or powder, to top off their desired appearance after a permanent makeup procedure. ​ ROLE IN AFTERCARE Follow and remain compliant with post-procedure after-care instructions. There may be unknown risks and hazards related to the procedure, and Arawan Artistry Aesthetics gave no warranty or guarantees about results. The patient must accept full responsibility for the color, shape, and position of the pigments applied. The actual healed color of the pigment will modify to an extent due to the person’s unique undertones. ​ INDUSTRY STANDARDS The industry standard for permanent makeup requires two visits. The second "perfection session," also known as the touch-up or follow-up appointment, is highly recommended for optimal results. Additional follow-ups after this second visit should fall 6-10 weeks from the initial procedure. Other visits after the second appointment may also be necessary to achieve the desired outcome. Additional sessions will be an additional charge. ​ MAINTENANCE REQUIRED Permanent makeup is a "low" maintenance treatment, not a "no maintenance treatment." The patient may need to clean the eyebrow hair outside of the customized template or add makeup to get the desired look they want for specific events. Additional sessions for the ideal cosmetic results require an additional fee. ​ COLOR BOOSTERS Arawan Artistry Aesthetics providers deposit pigments that do not compete with topical makeup that goes over the skin. Keeping the color fresh with annual color boosters is recommended for maintenance, as this semi-permanent technique will fade or change color gradually over time. However, the provider will evaluate touch-up requests to ensure the skin is not too saturated with pigment before Arawan Artistry Aesthetics can commit to a touch-up appointment. ​ HOW OTHER FACIAL TREATMENTS (NEUROTOXINS, DERMAL FILLERS, ETC) AFFECT RESULTS Treatments that alter the natural facial state, such as neurotoxin injections like Botox, dermal fillers, surgery, and others, may affect the results and the symmetry of the face. It is best to implement permanent makeup four weeks after any neurotoxin injections are applied to allow the provider to work on the adjusted facial balance. The permanent cosmetic makeup may appear altered when medications like neurotoxins or fillers wear off. ​ HOW LASER TREATMENTS AFFECT MICROPIGMENTATION OR PERMANENT MAKE-UP Lasers are used for tattoo lightening or removal. Get an entire course of laser hair removal before getting any tattoo or tattoo removal in the target area. Skin must heal for at least eight weeks from any laser treatment before any micropigmentation treatment. THE RISK OF ACQUIRING FEVER BLISTERS OR COLD SORES AFTER A LIP TATTOO Anyone may be a carrier of the herpes simplex virus that causes fever blisters or cold sores on the lips and may not be aware of it, even though they have never had fever blisters or cold sores before. Our clinic requires all treatments involving the lips to obtain prescription medications to prevent, minimize the symptoms, and treat this condition. ​ SKIN INTEGRITY CONCERNS 3D AREOLA TATTOOING FOR BREAST CANCER SURVIVORS & GENDER-AFFIRMING SURGERY FOR TRANSGENDER PATIENTS For breasts: Breast-altering procedures, such as plastic surgery, revisions, implants, and injections, may alter or degrade the design. Arawan Artistry Aesthetics is not responsible for such changes. Due to skin integrity concerns, changes due to additional breast alterations or revisions may not be correctable through additional Areola-Nipple body art procedures. ​ SCAR CAMOUFLAGING Ensure the scar is fully healed before undergoing scar camouflaging treatment. This usually takes 6 to 12 months after the injury or surgery. Scar camouflaging is a cosmetic procedure and may not eliminate the appearance of the scar. It can, however, help to reduce the visibility. ​ Avoiding sun exposure, tanning beds, or self-tanners on the scarred area for at least two weeks before the treatment. Sunburn or tanned skin can affect the color match and blending of the pigments. Refrain from topical treatments or medications on the scarred area for at least two weeks before the therapy unless prescribed by a doctor. This includes retinol, glycolic acid, other exfoliants, and topical steroids or antihistamines. Some scars may need some type of skin resurfacing treatment to minimize the hypertrophic nature of the scar. ​ For additional questions, please use the contact form.

I understand there is no warm blanket provided, but I can bring my own. Pre-Care: Caffeinated Drinks and Alcohol I want to increase pigment retention and I understand excessive bleeding reduces retention. I understand coffee, alcohol, or caffeinated and energizing drinks twenty-four hours before my appointment may cause excessive bleeding in the target area, and that the numbing cream will NOT be as effective. Pre-Care: Eating or Snacking Before The Procedure No food, no eating, and no other beverages other than water are allowed inside the procedure room. I will make sure I am hydrated and have eaten before my procedure. Pre-Care: Blanket and Clothing I understand Arawan Artistry does not have warm blankets available, but I can bring my own. I also understand my provider will be working with pigments that may or may not stain my clothing or my blanket and will dress accordingly. Pre-Care: Back and Neck I understand I will be directed to sit or stand multiple times for the mapping or shaping process and during the procedure to continue to evaluate the shape and form. I understand that I will be in a prolonged supine (on your back) position for the pigment implantation. If you suffer from back pain, please let your provider know. If you suffer from neck pain while flat, please bring a small towel to roll and place under your neck for your comfort. Pre-Care: Eyeglasses and Contact Lenses I understand I am not to wear contact lenses to any appointment during which my provider will be working around my eyes. I understand I may wear my contact lenses after the procedure. Pre-Care: Make Up I understand that arriving without makeup, with a clean and recently washed face is the best way to help reduce my risk of infection. ​ I will bring my eyebrow makeup or lipstick so we can color match to a similar color. Otherwise, we will match a color similar to your natural hair color or lip color of your choice. ​ I understand I cannot apply eyebrow makeup if work is done on my eyebrows, eyeliner, or lips to prevent the risk of infection for a certain period of time after my procedure. ​ Pre-Care: Smoking I understand the fumes from any type of smoking alters the internal condition of my skin integrity.

I understand my artist cannot tattoo over these and will not risk infection or my safety. I understand to check the target area a few days before my appointment to ensure my skin has good integrity. ​ I understand that compromised skin due to surgical scars, burn scars, radiation scars, etc. may be or may not be more sensitive than a normal skin integrity. ​ I understand that getting a lip blush tattoo causes minor trauma to my skin integrity that may lead to fever blisters from the oral herpes simplex virus, of which I may not even be aware that I am a carrier of. I understand that it is best for me to see my primary or another healthcare provider to discuss possible prescribed prophylactic treatments before and after the procedure to reduce the incident of painful lip fever blisters. Pre-Care: Before and After Photos and Videos I consent to Arawan Artistry taking before and after photos for including in my treatment file. I consent to having my before and after photos and videos used by Arawan Aesthetics for its education, advertising, marketing, and promotion purposes in print, on its website, and on its social media accounts. ​ Pre-Care: Workout I understand I should not work out the day of the procedure because working out increases my body temperature and heart rate which increases my blood pressure and promotes blood flow to the target area, in turn reducing pigment retention. BROWS: Pre-Care: Brow Tint or Henna I understand I should not tint or apply henna on my eyebrows three days before the procedure. Pre-Care: Waxing and Threading I understand I will not be waxing or threading the target area three days before the appointment. Your provider will shape and clean your eyebrows. EYELINER: How to Prepare for Eyeliner Tattoos After eyeliner tattoo your eyes may swell or redden because of the delicate skin and sensitive areas, some clients feel it is best not to make any social plans for a day or two following any procedure. It is always best to avoid these procedures within months prior to important life events such as weddings, vacations etc. Also if you have vascular eyelids, eyeliner tattoo is not recommended. Your eyes can be sensitive and bleed easily. Consult with your artist first. No Eyelash Extensions No eyelash extension 1 week before and until 4 weeks after your touchup session. No Mascara No mascara on the day of the procedure and have your eyes free of makeup and moisturizer. Too much wax based makeup affects the healing process and pigment implantation. No Contact Lenses No contact lenses, bring glasses and you can wear your contact lenses after 48 hours post procedure. Other Notes If your eyes are sensitive to a bright light, bring somebody with you. If you have a previous eyeliner tattoo you need to send us a photo. If you have had any type of eye surgery, including Cataract, Lasik, blepharoplasty, you must get medical clearance from your physician. ​ Things to Avoid Before Eyeliner Tattoos Procedure Lash Tinting Avoid lash tinting, perming, curling 2 weeks before and can be done 2 weeks after. Lash Serums Stop using lash serums, especially Latisse 4 weeks prior to your procedure. The reason is that those types of serums are stimulants. They will make your eyelids too fragile and vascular for cosmetic tattooing.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR EYELINER TATTOO Please follow these instructions to improve and prolong the results of micropigmentation. Even when following these aftercare instructions, fading, blurring or poor retention may still happen depending on your skin and lifestyle. Everyone heals and accepts the pigment differently. How your body heals is out of our control. Healed results will vary between each individual client, based on their skin type, their skin condition, immune system, metabolism, overall health, and lifestyle. Our aftercare instructions are meant to help you achieve the best results and reduce the chances of getting an infection. ​ These instructions are not a guarantee that your results will last for any certain period of time, nor is it guaranteed problems will not arise. ​ What to do after the procedure? Wipe away lymphatic fluid with a cotton round every 15 minutes for the 1st hour to reduce the formation of thick scabs. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and cool water temperature to maintain the pores closed. Warm water will open the pores and may cause pigment migration. Keep your face clean and dry especially around the eye area - an oily face typically makes the eyelids and eye-line oily too, which may cause pigment migration. Twice a day for the next 3-7 days, starting the night of the procedure. Wash your entire face, including your eyes with mild soap using cool water temperature. Dab lightly and carefully to dry. Using clean cotton rounds soaked in cold water or ice in a clean ziploc bag with a paper towel barrier may be applied as needed to reduce swelling. Use a fresh pillowcase. Sleeping with a slightly elevated head helps alleviate eye swelling. Avoid sleeping on your face for up to 10 days. Important note about showering (during the first 10 days): No long hot showers and avoid steam. Your face should only be getting wet only at the end of the shower. Avoid excessive rinsing and hot water on the treated area. After the eyeliner procedure note the following: Do not wear contact lenses for 3 days or until the swelling has subsided. Do not use any old tubes of mascara. Do not wear eye-makeup for 10 days to reduce your chances of getting an eye infection. Do not use saline eye drops. Saline removes or lightens the pigment. Remember that tattooed eyes will be more sensitive to pet dander, dust, gardening, cooking (frying), and dirty hands. Do not perform heavy household cleaning such as garage or storage cleaning where there is a lot of airborne debris. Care must be taken to keep the eyes clean and free of bacteria. ​ Things to Avoid After an Eyeliner Tattoo Procedure Using eyelash curlers for 2 weeks. Clean eyelash curler with alcohol wipes prior to using it to remove dirt and bacteria. Wait until after the tattoos are completely healed at 6-8 weeks after the second session to apply lash lift or lash perm and apply false lashes or lash extensions. Mascara should be brand new and applied after 2 weeks of the procedure. Do not apply any eye make-up that can migrate to the eyeliner for 2 weeks. Retin-A, Glycolic Acids, Alpha Hydroxy Acid ( AHA) near eyes to avoid premature fading. Direct sun exposure and tanning beds for a minimum of 4 weeks after your procedure. Direct sunlight can cause the pigment to change color while it is healing and can also cause hyperpigmentation and scarring. Wear sunglasses. Swimming and bathing for 4 weeks to avoid bacterial infection. Pools, sauna, steam rooms, steamy showers, and hot baths for 10 days. Sweating especially on your face for 10 days. Sweating expels pigment from the dermis producing poor and patchy results. Alcohol slows healing and slows proper pigment retention - avoid excessive alcohol drinking for 10 days. Driving in open air vehicles such as convertibles, boats, bicycles, or motorcycles for 10 days. Certain skincare products and services will cause premature fading of your cosmetic tattoo and may also alter the pigment color. ​ General healing timeline after an eyeliner tattoo: ​ Day 1 After leaving the eyeliner will look rich, bright, and dark. Your eyes might be puffy and red, it is a normal reaction of the skin and the swelling will go down after a few hours. However, everyone heals differently and the swelling might last up to 3 days. The most important part is to remove lymphatic fluid from the tattooed area with clean cotton rounds, every 15 minutes, during the first hour post procedure to reduce thickened scab formation. You may experience discomfort, mild pain/sensitivity, swelling, and redness immediately following the procedure. Your eyes may feel like you have been crying for several hours. These initial symptoms should subside within 3 days. ​ Day 2 Continue to wash your face including your eyes twice daily. The pigment might look even darker - this is normal. Keep the area clean by blotting with clean wet cotton rounds or gently washing eyes with cold water. Do not rub your eyes, only dabbing and pat with a clean tissue or towel, air dry or dab eyes dry lightly. ​ Days 3-7 Continue to wash your face including your eyes twice daily. These days you will start forming crust, scabbing. A thin string-like film of pigment may come off while eyes are being washed, this is normal. The pigment is settling into the skin even though it looks like it is not visible. Some itching is normal, you can apply a cooled cotton round for relief. Use a clean q-tip to hold pressure on the itchy part of your eye. Do not pick, peel, or scratch the treated area or your color may heal unevenly, patchy areas, and you risk scarring and infection. Some scabs might get stuck on the lashes or vice versa, this is normal. Let the scab fall by itself, you may remove it if it is resting on eyelashes with a lash comb. Patchy areas will be adjusted at touch up. After day 7, wash your face nightly. ​ Day 10- 13 The skin is usually healed, but still remains thin and susceptible to trauma. Scabbing gradually disappears. The itching has gone, the pigment has become lighter. It is not recommended to do cosmetic procedures such as lash extensions, do not dye your eyelashes, do not go to the sauna or swimming pool. ​ Day 14 During this period, the pigment is still settling and getting absorbed. The color may change to a light faded look or it could appear saturated from regenerated skin. There could be some gaps in the eyeliner. All these imperfections will be adjusted at the touch-up session, which must be done 6 to 8 weeks after the first procedure. Day 28 The skin is considered restored around 28 days after the permanent tattoo procedure. The first 7-14 days is when the top layer of the skin (dermis) heals, but the pigment continues settling into the skin for the next 4 to 6 weeks. Altered skin conditions due to poor health not limited to the following, such as having diabetes, renal disease, and liver disease as well as having excessive wrinkles, excessive dryness, excessive oiliness are some of the reasons that slow down skin turnover cycle, slow down healing time, and decrease pigment retention. ​ How often do Eyeliner Tattoos Need to be Touched Up? Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of color is to be expected or fading of the pigment. One side may appear darker than the other over a period of time. ​ Permanent makeup changes over time for several reasons. Fading can occur due to sun exposure, tanning, skin care products/makeup remover, and your skin’s natural exfoliation process. The purpose of the touch-up visit is to correct any color or shape issues. ​ Before a touch up is scheduled, a skin integrity and color assessment must first be completed in order to verify that the skin remains intact for the procedure as well as the color is no longer over saturated (still dark appearing) and has faded enough for a touch up. ​ Eyeliner tattoos, like other types of tattoo fade at about 50% when healed; therefore, a second session for touch up is helpful to boost the color and adjust any areas that are patchy. The size of the tattoo will also shrink up to 50% when completely healed. ​ We recommend the initial touch-up sessions six to eight weeks immediately following the first session, to allow the eyeliner tattoo pigment to last longer. The first touch up is industry standard and we recommend doing this after six to eight weeks. ​ Clients who do not go to their first touch-up session may need to return for their first touch up sooner than 1 year. ​ Clients who followed through their six to eight week touch-up sessions may not need to be back up to 2 years or later. The color boost or annual touchup is recommended to maintain the result and it is usually done no sooner than 1 year anniversary mark. ​ Eyeliner pigment migration is a risk; therefore, an iron oxide type of pigment, which is non-carbon based, is used to minimize pigment migration. ​ For maintenance, practice and maintain healthy skin by washing your face regularly to reduce oil build up that can promote pigment migration around the eyes. ​ Sometimes an eyeliner touch up cannot be done, see some of the reasons below: Your skin condition has changed and has become too thin, too oily, or too dry. The eyelid developed tiny blood vessels which could lead to excessive bleeding. When to report signs and symptoms of infection? Notify your aesthetic provider and primary care provider if you have any of the following: ​ Any allergic reaction or infection. Signs and symptoms of infection are as follows: Fever or chills, and the affected area is red, thick weepy fluid, burning, and hot to touch. Redness – prolonged redness and swelling. Oozing yellow or green fluid in color. Swollen (puffy) skin surrounding the tattoo for more than a few days. Prolonged itching or hives days or weeks after pigment implantation can be a sign of a delayed allergic reaction. If you are having an MRI scan, please inform your doctor that you have had cosmetic micropigmentation (a cosmetic tattoo). Please call your artist at 847-421-7400 (do not text), if you have signs and symptoms of infection to help monitor the situation.

ProCell Microchanneling therapy, on the other hand, uses a “stamping” technique, which creates micro vertical channels into the skin for better and deeper product penetration & less trauma to the skin.

Boost your collagen production & age backwards with ProCell Microchanneling Collagen Induction. Understanding the Skin Cycle A skin cycle is the process where a new skin cell is formed at the deepest layer of the epidermis and works it’s way up to the surface of the skin. At this point the skin cell has matured and ultimately flakes off. A skin cycle can vary with each individual and is affected by such factors as age, hormones, skin condition (health) and stress. On average, a skin cycle is 5-6 weeks. At the age of 19-21, the process can take 14-21 days, compared to a middle-aged adult where it is estimated to be 28 days. As we grow older, this skin cycle slows to about 45-60 days in our 40’s and 50’s. It can further slow to about 60-90 days in our 50’s and 60’s. Why is this important? As we age our skin cycle slows down and dead cells accumulate on the surface of skin causing sagging and fine lines and wrinkles. Bacteria can become trapped causing blemishes and breakouts. Skin discoloration and irregularities within the cells can become trapped causing spots. Therefore, it is important to choose skin care products that can accelerate your cellular turnover and keep fresh new skin cells flourishing to the surface. When starting a new skin care regime, it is advised to wait approximately 1-3 skin cycles so 6 – 18 weeks to see improved results. This gives the skin care chance to work on making changes to the cell’s health, condition, vitality, and strength. When the outer surface of skin is made of newer skin cells, skin feels softer, and looks more vibrant. By maintaining an average 28-day or faster replacement cycle through healthy lifestyle choices and a regular skin care routine that addresses the basics of skin, your skin will appear smoother and more youthful. Patience is Key Be patient with new skin care and give it time to do it’s job. This is designed to work on the deeper layers of the skin so immediate results are not always seen. Over the counter skin care works on the surface of your skin, so it may immediately feel soft but long term benefits will not be comparable. Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle Everyone experiences hair loss on some level. After all, the average person sheds 50-100 hairs a day as part of the natural hair growth cycle. Noticeable hair loss, however, occurs when this cycle is disrupted. These interruptions can happen for a variety of reasons—read on to learn more about how different causes and conditions can play a roll in hair loss. Some causes for hairloss are indentified below. While the vast majority of hair loss is caused by genetics, there are a number of other factors that could be at play. Here are a few common culprits that cause or exacerbate hair loss. A deficiency in certain vitamins and/or minerals could be contributing factors of hair loss. Some of the nutrients that are important for your hair include B vitamins (particularly Biotin), vitamin D, iron, zinc, protein, and essential fatty acids. Fluctuating hormone levels in women may cause or contribute to hair thinning or loss. These changes can often occur postpartum or be attributed to perimenopause, menopause, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Oftentimes, side effects from prescription drugs or medical treatments can include hair loss. These treatments can include: Acne medications Antibiotics Antidepressants Bariatric surgery Beta-blockers for high blood pressure Blood thinners Chemotherapy and radiation to treat cancer Cholesterol-lowering medications Epilepsy medications Hormone replacement therapy Immune-suppressing drugs Lithium NSAIDs Oral contraceptives Steroids Thyroid medications Weight loss drug While everyday stress won't impact your hair, three types of hair loss are associated with high stress levels, including: Telogen Effluvium: This condition occurs when there’s a sudden shock to the system like that experienced with childbirth, surgery, rapid weight loss or any major, traumatic event such as a death in the family, divorce or an accident. Trichotillomania: The stress-induced impulse control disorder, trichotillomania, is a hair loss condition that drives people to pull out their own hair. Alopecia Areata: This autoimmune skin disease mistakenly attacks the hair follicles, causing hair loss on the scalp, face, and sometimes other areas of the body. Frequent use of harsh styling practices can cause breakage and make hair fall out. Some of the most damaging styling practices include: tight hair styles such as ponytails, braids or buns worn for extended periods of time; chemical treatments such as coloring, perms and relaxers; and incorrect use or overuse of hot styling tools. Note the exact cause of ones hairloss can be determined by a medical doctor specializing in hairloss. Microchanneling for hair loss Use of Procell with Livra Hair Regrowth Serum on the scalp is proven to effectively stop hair loss and regrow hair. This breakthrough approach utilizes natural human growth factors that are found in healthy, young hair follicles to create thicker, fuller-looking hair without the use of drugs. Procell effectively stops hair loss at the source. Microchanneling of the scalp increases absorption of topical serums into the skin by over 300%. Livra Hair Serum is applied during and immediately after treatment to penetrate deep into the follicle to deliver high concentrations of growth factors. The growth factors selected for the Hair Serum are the same as those that are naturally present in healthy young hair follicles. The growth factors in Livra Hair Regrowth Serum nourish the stem cells lining the hair follicles that are crucial for production of hair. Deep penetration of these growth factors improves the overall condition of the scalp, rejuvenates damaged hair follicles for an effective, natural approach to halting and reversing hair loss. PROCELL THERAPIES’ HAIR REGROWTH SERUM How it Works As we age increased levels of Dihydrotestoterone (DHT) can effectively put the dermal papilla/hair follicles into a telogen, “sleeping” phase. If hair remains in a telogen phase long enough the follicle cannot be reactivated and balding occurs. Procell Therapies Hair Regrowth Serum (HRS) disrupts the occupation of receptors on the dermal papilla prone to DHT contamination, re-awakening dormant follicles to grow hair once again. Treatment works best on younger patients who have just begun balding, but impressive results have been seen even in older patients. Additionally, thinning hair may be caused by a scalp damaged by a dry climate, nutrition, stress, certain drugs, chlorine, and/or environmental exposure. Over many years, the skin of the scalp produces less growth factors and becomes less efficient at repairing damage. Because of this, the condition of the scalp can eventually deteriorate to the point where it hardens (fibrosis) or hair follicles become miniaturized. In the case of fibrosis, hair is unable to grow through the hardened scalp. Miniaturization renders the hair follicles unable to perform their normal growth cycle. Both conditions can lead to a cessation of hair production and the death of hair follicles. Stem cells lining the hair follicles are crucial for production of hair, and the GF-technology ingredients in this concentrated serum are selected to provide support to these stem cells, so hair can re-grow. HRS improves the overall condition of the scalp, rejuvenating damaged hair follicles and increasing circulation of nutrients for healthy hair. The serum’s action is enhanced by protective flower extracts, which help maintain cellular health and lustrous hair. HRS incorporates recent advances in hair follicle science. Specialized techniques influence bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell cultures to produce conditioned media focused on hair growth (Wnt-1a pathway) while twelve bio-identical growth factors and cytokines, each with proven efficacy in hair follicle stimulation, are added to make this the most scientifically advanced product of its type. Ingredients: Deionized Water, Wnt-1a Pathway Stem CytokinesTM (proprietary admixture of human bone marrow stem cell derived growth factors and cytokines), Hyaluronic Acid, IGF-1 (sh-Oliogo- peptide-2), IGF-2 (sh-Polypeptide-31), aFGF (sh-Polypep- tide- 11), bFGF (sh-Polypeptide-1), KGF (sh-Polypeptide-3), KGF-2 (sh-Polypeptide-10), SCF (sh-Polypeptide-4), CSF-1 (sh-Polypeptide-73), PDGF-A (sh-Poly- peptide-8), EPO (sh-Polypeptide-72), Noggin (sh-Polypeptide-13), CG-VEGF (sh- Polypeptide-9), C3PiPa, Dehydroacetic Acid & Benzyl Alcohol as preservative. EXPECTATIONS The condition of your skin or hair depends upon your previous skin or hair condition, lifestyle, and compliance. For optimal results and outcome with ProCell microchanneling: 1. Understand that you are committing to a treatment, an investment, and the timeline of results will vary depending on current lifestyle and commitment to treatment regimen. 2. Remain compliant and attend treatment sessions as scheduled and follow after care recommendations. 3. Your results may be impacted by the set goal timeline you have in mind. Understand and realize that your current skin and hair connditions did not change in 24 hours. Multiple sessions may be required to obtain the best outcome. 4. You may need to modify your current lifestyle for optimal results. For example: someone will need to carry an umbrella to protect their face from direct sunrays or a person who is accustomed to wearing a baseball cap will need to revert to not using a hat to promote air flow within the scalp region. Please take a screenshot of the pre and post care information below. In preparation for Procell Microchanneling, you may consider collecting a few items to help your recovery and/or to maximize your treatment.

I typically go over the lips. If you get cold sores regularly, please consult with to your doctor about taking Acyclovir or Valcyclovir one day prior to your microchanneling to help reduce the likelihood of a breakout due to your treatment. 2. Discontinue Retinol (2% or higher) or Tretinoin at least 3 days prior to treatment to prevent contraindications. 3. For your first treatment, (and treatments with micro-filament size 0.25mm in general) numbing cream is typically not necessary, and you can expect mild redness and swelling, and a tight, warm sensation between 4 to 24 hours. 4. Treatments that follow with longer micro-filament lengths may require topical numbing cream, and can produce redness and swelling along with tiny flecks of redness for between 4 and 72 hours. 5. I am not a doctor. If pain relievers are not contraindicated with your personal health history, taking Acetaminophen to premedicate 2 hours before treatment may help reduce discomfort. 6. If you are being treated with PRP (protein rich plasma) or PRF (platelet rich fibrin) drink an extra 24-32 ounces of water for two to three days prior to treatment to boost your body’s hydration. 7. Prepare your skin before the appointment by arriving with a clean and washed face without makeup and without facial hair (clean shaven). Do not apply any products to your face before the appointment to avoid contraindications. 8. If you've had Botox, Fillers or Threads injected, then you must wait at least two weeks before treatment. And you must be satisfied with the Botox, Fillers, or Threads results before we can offer you any other treatments. 9. If you are planning to receive Botox, make sure that you give yourself at least 2 weeks post-Botox injections before receiving your microneedling procedure. 10.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR BELLY BUTTON MICROPIGMENTATION Please follow these instructions to improve and prolong the results of micropigmentation. Even when following these aftercare instructions, fading, blurring or poor retention may still happen depending on your skin and lifestyle. Everyone heals and accepts the pigment differently. How your body heals is out of our control. Healed results will vary between each individual client, based on their skin type, their skin condition, immune system, metabolism, overall health, and lifestyle. Our aftercare instructions are meant to help you achieve the best results and reduce the chances of getting an infection. ​ These instructions are not a guarantee that your results will last for any certain period of time, nor is it guaranteed problems will not arise. ​ For those who have undergone a tummy tuck, hernia repair, and other similar abdominal surgeries that affect the belly button—or sometimes render it obsolete all together—this can be an area of serious focus. And just like areola tattoos offer an incredibly effective and realistic option for guests after a mastectomy, so too do tattooed belly buttons make a great solution for those who feel self-conscious about the look of their stomach. ​ 3D belly button tattooing is only completed after the reconstructed skin has had time to fully recover (usually requiring at least 13 months) and after any necessary radiation treatment. Please discuss the process with your surgeon prior to reserving your appointment to ensure you are fully recovered and a good candidate for the treatment. Below is a breakdown of what to expect and to experience during the first two weeks following the initial procedure: Day One: Redness, swelling and minor irritation around the tattoo area. Day Two: The side effects of day one should have subsided. However, on day two, the scabbing will start. Day Three-Five: A thin film of skin will form over the belly button tattoo. The area might begin to feel dry or itchy. Days Five-Ten: After the tattooed area has healed, any scabs will start to fall off. Days Ten-Fourteen: By the end of the two-week healing process, the scabs should have all fallen off to reveal natural-looking belly button. ​ HOW LONG DO BELLY BUTTON TATTOOS LAST? Belly button tattoos can last up to three years. However, like any other cosmetic tattoo, they will fade over time. Therefore, if clients want to keep their facial tattoo looking fresh, they will need to book in for an occasional touch-up. After the mandatory touch-up 6-8 weeks post initial treatment, most clients return for a faux freckle touch-up once a year, but this all depends on how fast they are fading. In short, clients can get a touch-up as frequently or as rarely as they want. ​ While the tattoo will fade naturally over time, there are a few things clients can do to reduce the speed at which their belly button tattoo disappear. These include: Avoiding excessive sun exposure. If you want to sit out in the sunshine, then layer up on SPF to protect the tattoo. Avoiding frequent swimming in chlorinated pools. ​ POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS OF A FRECKLE TATTOO TREATMENT. As with any cosmetic procedure, there are some potential side effects to freckle tattooing. However, adverse side effects are very rare, and the risks associated with freckle tattoos are low. Potential side effects may include: ​ Swelling Redness Itchiness Tenderness Irritation ​ The above symptoms are completely normal, and to be expected during the first 3 days following the procedure. If, however, such symptoms persist after three days, contact their tattoo provider immediately as they could be suffering from an allergic reaction or infection. ​ TATTOO AFTERCARE. Looking after a tattoo is straightforward, and similar to the aftercare regime of many other cosmetic tattoo procedures. Below are our top tips for keeping faux freckles looking fresher for longer: ​ Wash your body the night of the procedure with a gentle cleanser. Dab dry, do not rub your face dry. Apply a very small amount of ointment such as Aquaphor. Keep your skin dry as much as possible besides washing recommendations for at least 24 hours following the initial procedure. After the first day, clients should only wash with a very gentle soap. Skin moisturizers should be non-scented as any fragranced products may irritate the skin. Do not exfoliate the tattooed area too much. The scabs formed post-tattoo need to fall off on their own terms to avoid patchy results. To achieve a softer, more natural look, clients can gently exfoliate the area approximately seven to ten days post procedure. Avoid applying perfumed products to the tattooed area for around ten days. Do not soak the area for at least ten days. This means swimming, saunas and steam baths must be avoided, as well as excessive sweating.

SKIN Pre-Treatment Instructions 1. I typically go over the lips. If you get cold sores regularly, please consult with to your doctor about taking Acyclovir or Valcyclovir one day prior to your microchanneling to help reduce the likelihood of a breakout due to your treatment. 2. Discontinue Retinol (2% or higher) or Tretinoin at least 3 days prior to treatment to prevent contraindications. 3. For your first treatment, (and treatments with micro-filament size 0.25mm in general) numbing cream is typically not necessary, and you can expect mild redness and swelling, and a tight, warm sensation between 4 to 24 hours. 4. Treatments that follow with longer micro-filament lengths may require topical numbing cream, and can produce redness and swelling along with tiny flecks of redness for between 4 and 72 hours. 5. I am not a doctor. If pain relievers are not contraindicated with your personal health history, taking Acetaminophen to premedicate 2 hours before treatment may help reduce discomfort. 6. If you are being treated with PRP (protein rich plasma) or PRF (platelet rich fibrin) drink an extra 24-32 ounces of water for two to three days prior to treatment to boost your body’s hydration. 7. Prepare your skin before the appointment by arriving with a clean and washed face without makeup and without facial hair (clean shaven). Do not apply any products to your face before the appointment to avoid contraindications. 8. If you've had Botox, Fillers or Threads injected, then you must wait at least two weeks before treatment. And you must be satisfied with the Botox, Fillers, or Threads results before we can offer you any other treatments. ​ 9. If you are planning to receive Botox, make sure that you give yourself at least 2 weeks post-Botox injections before receiving your microneedling procedure. 10. Avoid chlorine 24 hours before and after treatment for best results. ​ 11. No Retin-A or Retinol products 24 hours prior to your treatment. ​ 12. No auto-immune therapies or products 24 hours prior to your treatment. ​ 13. No prolonged sun exposure to the face 24 hours prior to your treatment. ​ 14. Microchanneling treatment will not be administered on sunburned skin. ​ 15. If you are taking a blood thinner, aspirin or any other medication that you have the propensity to bleed easily while on these medications, please tell your microchanneling specialist. If you are under a physician’s care and need to discontinue your medication for a few days, always ask your physician for medical clearance prior to each microchanneling appointment. ​ 16. If an active or extreme breakout occurs before treatment, please consult your microchanneling practitioner. ​ 17. Must be off oral Isotretinoin for at least 6 months before ProCell Treatment. ​ 18. Do not exercise 24 hours before the treatment, because exercising increases blood flow to the face, which makes it easier for the treatment areas to bruise and swell. ​ 19. Please complete the forms requested which includes the personal medical history form. ​ 20. Send a text message when done with forms for prompt review.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR EYEBROW MICROPIGMENTATION Please follow these instructions to improve and prolong the results of Arawan Artistry microblading and micropigmentation. Even when following these aftercare instructions, fading, blurring, or poor retention may still happen depending on your skin and lifestyle. Everyone heals and accepts the pigment differently. How your body heals is out of our control. Healed results will vary between clients based on skin type and condition, bone structure, immune system, metabolism, overall health, lifestyle, and the amount of existing hair. Our aftercare instructions are meant to help you achieve the best results while avoiding infections. ​ These instructions are not a guarantee your results will last for any certain period, nor is it guaranteed problems will not arise. ​ Blot your brows every 15 minutes for the first hour using a clean hand to hold the clean tissue or cotton round to dab and remove excess lymphatic fluids. This action helps prevent the formation of a thick scab. A thick scab may slightly pull pigment implantation, decrease color retention, and cause undesirable healed results. Keep the area clean and protected with the provided aftercare cream. ​ Washing Instructions: Day of the procedure (at night) - Wash your brows gently with cool water and mild cleanser. Use your ring fingers and clean with a feather-like touch in a circular motion (no rubbing) for 10-20 seconds. Repeat brow washing twice daily until brows are healed (closed). You may still form a scab even though you have been blotting. Wash with a mild cleanser, and apply aftercare moisturizer. If scab formation persists, DO NOT pick the scabs. Do not face the shower. A shower shield is not required, but you may use a shower shield to prevent too much water from rinsing the brow area if you face the water while in the shower. ​ Drying Instructions: Gently pat the area completely dry before applying aftercare cream. Apply aftercare moisturizer sparingly (the size of a rice grain). Only a superlight layer is needed to allow natural oxygen (room air) to penetrate for healing. Use clean Q-tips to gently remove any previous layer of balm before repeating the brow-washing process. After the procedure, you may wash your face with gentle soap, but be very careful around the treated area. Use any special soap provided or mild soap such as Cetaphil or CeraVe. Skin closure from a minor injury usually begins in 3-7 days, but this will not mean the treated area is completely healed. If the skin is closed, you may resume washing your entire face – be gentle and dab dry. You may resume your usual skincare after four weeks since your microblading treatment. However, serums, creams, and topicals that penetrate deep into the skin can potentially cause pigment to migrate and change color over time. Please avoid using these skincare products on your eyebrows to reduce this risk. PLEASE DO NOT DO NOT touch, rub, wipe, pick, or scratch your eyebrows. The flakes must fall off on their own, or you will risk removing the color and possible scarring. DO NOT take prolonged hot showers during the first 3 days. The heat opens your pores, jeopardizing the pigment fanning and altering your results. DO NOT soak the treated area in the bath, pool, hot tub, ocean, lake, or river, and no saunas, steam rooms, or hot yoga for 30 days. Your eyebrows will form a scab or feel dry following the treatment. If they itch, DO NOT SCRATCH. Just tap lightly to alleviate the discomfort. PLEASE DO AVOID direct sunlight to the treated area. Wear a hat when outdoors to promote retention and prevent scarring. After healing, use sunscreen to avoid fading from the sun. AVOID makeup application directly on the brows during the healing process. Makeup may be old and cause infection if applied to open wounds. AVOID using daily skincare products directly on the eyebrows until healed. AVOID excessive sweating for at least 3 days afterward, but 30 days are recommended for best results. Sweat contains salts, which reduces color retention because saline is used for tattoo removal. Wear a sweatband to avoid sweat dripping on the brow area when exercising. Sweat also comes out of the eyebrows, especially in the tail area. AVOID touching your brows (always remember to wash your hands first if you have to touch your eyebrows). AVOID sleeping on your face for the first 7 days. Use a fresh and clean pillowcase. Be mindful of the linens rubbing on your eyebrows, which may reduce retention. AVOID chlorinated water until micropigmentation is closed (3-7 days) or fully healed (6 weeks) – chemicals reduce color retention. Schedule a follow-up “perfection session” (also known as touch-up). This session is usually needed between 6 and 8 weeks after the procedure; please schedule this with your provider for the best results. ​ Maintenance: After your brows are fully healed, it is encouraged to keep up with the shape of your brows. Remove unwanted brow hair scattered beyond the brow's shape. Let’s meet again for the perfection session in 6-8 weeks! Schedule a color boost session within 6-12 months. Send a frontal assessment photo without brow makeup, and your provider will determine if a color boost is required. If your brows are still very well saturated, a color boost may not be needed. ​ Notify your primary care provider if you have any of the following: Consult your doctor immediately if you experience any allergic reaction or infection. Please inform your provider as well if this occurs. Signs and symptoms of infection are as follows: Fever or chills and the affected area are hot to the touch. Redness – prolonged redness and swelling. Oozing yellow or green fluid in color. Swollen (puffy) skin surrounding the tattoo for a few days. Prolonged itching or hives days or weeks after pigment implantation can indicate a delayed allergic reaction. If you have an MRI scan, please inform your doctor that you have had microblading or micropigmentation (a cosmetic tattoo). If you are planning a chemical peel or any other medical procedure, please inform the therapist or the artist of the procedure you have had. The procedure should only be done once the healing process is complete. If you are due to give blood after the procedure, please inform this provider about the microblading or micropigmentation (cosmetic tattoo) procedure you have had, as this might alter the results.
