The eyebrows are approximatley 20 to 25% darker and bolder in width than they will be when healed. Your skin is red under the pigment which causes the color of the pigment to appear darker. There is some swelling, although difficult to actually see due to the thickness of the skin in the eyebrow area. This will subside.

Exfoliation, which begins in a few days, will cause the excess pigment surrounding the eyebrow procedure to flake away and a more narrow appearance will result.

New skin will heal over the pigmented area and result in a softer appearance of your eyebrows. Don't be concerned that your eyebrows initially appear darker and heavier in size than you desire.This is all part of the process.
Conditions remain the same.
Eyebrows start to itch and will appear a bit thicker in texture. Exfoliation begins.
The skin begins to flacke peeling from the outside edges first.
Color finishes flaking off and appears softer and grayer for a few days until color clarifies.

Note: The results of Permanent makeup procedures are affected by the canvas (your skin) there where we have performed on.If your skin is sun damaged (even from tanning beds), thick and uneven in texture, or excessively dry or oily the result cannot be expected to be perfect after the initial procedure.

Scars on the lips from fever blisters cause pigment removal. lifestyle, medications, smoking, metabolism, facial surgery, and age of skin all contribute to fading, Touch-ups are needed 30 days after your initial procedure to ensure the best result and to keep your permanent cosmetics looking the best. Your procedure maintenance, as outlined in your pre/post procedure directions, is very important.
EYELINER Expect light to moderate swelling and redness. Tea bags or ice packs may be used to minimize swelling the day of and the day after the procedure. Use A&D ointment or vaseline around
the treated area for 2 - 3 days following the procedure. You must use NEW mascara to avoid contamination.
EYEBROWS Expect slight swelling, thickness and/or redness for 1-2 days following the procedure. Keep lightly glossed with A&D Ointment or vaseline for 3-4 days. Wash with water and pat dry.
LIPLINER/LIPCOLOR Expect moderate swelling, usually 1-2 days following the procedure. Applying ice for the first 2 hours is most important and continue throughout the day. Keep moist with A&D Ointment, Vaseline or Liprotek for the next 5-7 days,
then switch to chap stick or lipstick with an SPF of 15 or greater, as the sun tends to fade lip color quickly. After the procedure, the lips may appear to have too much color.
You may add make-up to soften the color. After 3 to 4 days, the color will become lighter as the epidermis sloughs off. It will appear that you have lost all your color, however, when your lips have healed completely, the dermal layer will gradually become darker.
Two or 3 applications may be required to achieve the desired results. It is not uncommon to lose up to 70% of the color on the first application.
SCAR CAMOUFLAGE / AREOLA RESTORATION Keep area away from water for 24 hours. Keep moist with A&D Ointment or Xeroform for 3-5 days. No vigorous exercise for 24 hours.

IT IS NORMAL TO LOSE APPROXIMATELY 1/3 OF THE COLOR DURING THE HEALING PROCESS. AFTER INITIAL PROCEDURE, THE COLOR MAY BE A SHADE TOO DARK; IN SIX DAYS IT WILL APPEAR TOO LIGHT.
  AFTER 10 DAYS, THE COLOR WILL SHOW MORE. IT WILL APPEAR SOFTER WHEN COMPLETELY HEALED BECAUSE THE COLOR WILL COME FROM THE DERMAL LAYER OF THE SKIN TO THE EPIDERMAL LAYER OF THE SKIN.
