Eyeliner - Aftercare

​
Lacey will provide you with ointment at the end of your appointment.

​

Swelling and redness is to be expected immediately after the procedure as the skin is very thin in this area  (it will give off the appearance of as you have been crying). Itching is also normal. The length of time it takes to heal varies from person to person.  The swelling shall subside in a few hours. It takes an average about 4-5 days for the scabs to naturally fall off.  Your true color will not be apparent until the 4-6 week mark.

​

Ice packs can be applied for 10 minutes each hour for the first 4-8 hours following the procedure. The ice is used to reduce swelling and provide comfort. If you experience any residual swelling the following day, you may ice them again. After the first 24 hours the use of ice is no longer beneficial.

​

Please Note:

• If needed, over-the-counter Tylenol is recommended for temporary relief of pain.

• After the healing process your eyeliner will appear lighter in color because of natural skin regeneration. Often, even with proper care, some areas may look uneven or patchy. It is normal because your natural skin regeneration is not a process that your artist can control. That’s why a $150 follow up is recommended after 5-10 weeks from the initial session to fine tune your investment and assure that richness of color, symmetry, density in the shape and desired effect is achieved.

• Healed results vary per individual client. We have no control over what occurs during the healing process. After the second session (touch-up) additional sessions may be required to obtain optimal results.

• $150 WITHIN 6MO ANYTHING AFTER 6MO IS $350.

 

Following the proper post-care is necessary to achieve the best results. When scheduling an appointment for a cosmetic tattoo keep in mind the healing time of the procedure will depend on your body’s regeneration, age, immune system and lifestyle.

 

Followups $150 within 6mo

$350/after 6mo

You’ll find that your cosmetic tattoo will last between 3 - 5 years after touch up.

​​

• Future touch-up appointments are required to maintain their shape and depth of color. If you do not maintain, the color will lighten over time. Fading greatly depends on your skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, pigment color used, broken capillaries, and iron deficiency. We suggest that if you want to maintain your eyeliner looking its best, that you plan on scheduling a touch up once a year for best results.

• The regular use of eye drops or other preparations instilled in the eyes will cause premature fading of permanent eyeliner.

• Exposure to the sun and tanning beds can cause fading and discoloration of the pigment.

• Avoid using chemical exfoliants or heavy creams on the eyes, as it will cause fading.

• Do not laser near your eye are (IPL). Some lasers distort the color causing it to darken or lighten.

• Additional eye makeup application may still be required post tattoo to achieve your desired look.

• If you are planning a laser procedure or MRI scan, inform the technician of your cosmetic tattoo.

• The use of Retin-A/Tretinoin, hydroquinone, or any other rapid skin exfoliation used regularly on any area surrounding the eye area will cause your cosmetic tattoo to fade prematurely.

• The use of chemical peels, acid peels, lightening or any brightening product that targets hyper-pigmentation used regularly near the eye area can cause permanent eyebrows to fade prematurely.

• The use of exfoliating cleansers, scrubs, cleansers with acne fighting ingredients or “acid” in the name will cause rapid exfoliation of the skin containing the pigment and will increase odds of premature fading.
