Aftercare Instructions

It is highly encouraged to wear Saniderm Tattoo Bandage for the first 24 hrs. If you choose not to wear the bandage or are highly sensitive to adhesives, there will be a barrier cream applied instead.

DAYS 1-7

CLEANSE

  • Cleanse your brows twice daily (morning and evening). Start by thoroughly washing your hands, then use your fingertips to gently wash your eyebrows with the cleanser provided in your aftercare kit or mixture of baby shampoo and water.

  • Massage the area in an upward, circular motion for about 10 seconds, and rinse thoroughly with water.

  • DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA), or any exfoliants. The foam cleanser provided in your aftercare kit or Johnson's baby shampoo are good options.

  • Use a very light touch when cleansing your brows.

  • Make sure you rinse off all soap. Pat with a paper towel to dry the area.

  • ​Your skin must air dry 5-10 minutes before moisturizing. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.

MOISTURIZE

  • After cleansing and allowing brows to air dry for 5-10 minutes, apply a pin-point drop of aftercare ointment with a Q-tip and spread It across the area.

  • Do not over apply the product. 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

IMPORTANT REMINDERS

  • DO NOT rub, pick or scratch the treated area. Allow scabbing or dry skin to naturally slough off. Picking can cause scarring and/or loss of color.

  • No facials, botox, chemical treatments, microdermabrasion or exfoliants for 4 weeks.

  • Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for at least 4 weeks after procedure.

  • Avoid heavy sweating and long hot showers for the first 10 days. No hot yoga!

  • Avoid sleeping or lying on your face for the first 10 days.

  • Avoid swimming, lakes, ocean, hot tubs, etc for the first 10 days.

  • Avoid topical makeup Including sunscreen on the area for the first 10 days.
