• FAMILY PLANNING: We’re unable to tattoo during pregnancy. If you are planning a pregnancy, please take the 6 - 12 week Perfecting Visit into consideration.

Eyeliner Preparing For Treatment

• No lash extensions on at the time of your appointment, due to safety reasons. Lashes may be applied 3-weeks after your eyeliner is healed.

• Avoid using Lash enhancing serums at least 30 days prior to treatment.

• It’s essential to avoid eye makeup/ mascara whilst healing (1 week). You may like to get your lashes tinted 5 (or more) days prior. Do not tint less than 5 days prior to your appointment.

• If you wear contact lenses ensure they are removed and bring your glasses if needed.

• Avoid eye makeup at the time of your appointment.

• If you have any moles on the lash line, recent infections, concerns or irregular skin issues please reach out directly, or DM a close-up pic if you’re unsure. You may need to see a doctor or dermatologist before treatment.

Anaesthetic

Your comfort is our priority! We recommend ordering the below medical grade Anaesthetic, to ensure you’ll be totally comfortable throughout the entire treatment. With this, you’ll only feel a minor vibration in the area.

We work strictly within legal compliance, so we are unable to supply you with medical grade pharmaceuticals, however, we’ve made it super easy for you to arrange:

CONTACT:

1. Keperra Compounding Pharmacy by clicking this link to order your Anaestetic for brows

2. The Compounding Pharmacy will send it directly to the studio here (Sheridan Street) within 5 business days.

Please avoid purchasing numbing products from a local pharmacy. Their products are generally half the strength of what we recommend.

Do not order more for your touch-up, this formulation provides enough product for both treatments.

Brows - 2 Weeks Post-treatment plan

• EXERCISE: Avoid cardio workouts and excessive sweating until the healing area starts to scab up (2-5 days). Once scabbing starts, you may resume normal exercising, however, be cautious of exposing the area to sweat.

• Do not touch the healing area with your fingers.

• Do not expose or submerge the area in chlorinated pools or salt water.

• Avoid saturating the area in water.

• Avoid hot, steamy showers, steam rooms and saunas until healed.

• Avoid spray tanning the area until healed.

• Avoid consuming alcohol for 48 hours post-treatment.

• Protect the area from sun exposure and ensure your skin is in good health for 2-weeks prior to treatment.

• Do not pick the flaking skin or scabs.

• Ensure your perfecting visit is booked for 4-8 weeks post-treatment.

• Certain chemicals in cleansers and moisturisers will accelerate fading and may discolour the tattoo. Avoid applying these products to any tattooed areas unless directed to do so.

• The expected healing time is 5-9 days.

1 Week After Treatment

Where did the colour go?

During the healing process, the tattooed area will become intensely dark and minor scabbing will develop as new collagen rich skin forms underneath. This new skin temporarily makes the pigment appear faded and dull. Protect and nourish this new skin and the colour will return within a few weeks.

Eyeliner - 1 week post-treatment plan

• You may experience minor puffiness after treatment, however, you can expect to resume normality; Driving or returning to work immediately afterwards is fine.

• Slight increase of puffiness may be expected the next morning. This normally subsides throughout the day, however may last 3-5 days.

• Apply a cold compress or ice to the area immediately after treatment, for just a few minutes, and repeat every few hours that day.

• Avoid applying ice directly to exposed skin, a clean tissue may be used as a barrier.

• Using a clean cotton tip, apply a very thin layer of product to the area 1-2 times per day, as directed.

• Do not apply mascara or eye makeup to the area or touch with fingers until healed (1 week).

• Do not apply lash extensions within 3 weeks post-treatment.

• If you experience any unexpected discomfort or irritation of the eye area, notify your Artist and consult a pharmacist immediately.
