PERMANENT MAKEUP AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS

 

EL’s Permanent Beauty

 

Proper aftercare is essential for healthy healing, beautiful color retention, and long-lasting permanent makeup results.

 

FIRST 24 HOURS AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE

 

  • Avoid touching the treated area with unwashed hands.

  • If necessary, gently blot excess lymph fluid with clean, sterile gauze moistened with sterile saline solution.

  • Do not rub, scratch, or use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or harsh antiseptics on the treated area.

  • Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sweating, and heat exposure.

  • Do not apply makeup to the treated area.

  • Apply a very thin layer of aftercare ointment only if recommended by your technician.

 

DAYS 2–10: HEALING PERIOD

 

  • Gently cleanse the treated area according to your technician’s instructions. Avoid prolonged exposure to water.

  • Do not pick, peel, or scratch any scabs or flaking skin. Allow them to fall off naturally.

  • Avoid exfoliants, scrubs, retinol, acids, and other active skincare products on the treated area.

  • Stay away from swimming pools, saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, and tanning beds.

  • Avoid direct sun exposure.

  • Do not schedule facials, chemical peels, or other cosmetic treatments on the treated area until fully healed.

 

SPECIAL AFTERCARE BY TREATMENT AREA

 

EYEBROWS

 

  • Avoid eyebrow pencils, powders, gels, and tinting products until fully healed.

  • Do not rub or scratch your eyebrows.

  • Allow any flaking or scabbing to come off naturally.

 

EYELINER & LASH LINE ENHANCEMENT

 

  • Avoid mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow, and false eyelashes until the area has healed.

  • Avoid wearing contact lenses until the swelling and irritation have resolved.

  • Do not rub or scratch your eyelids.

  • Keep the eye area clean and follow your technician’s instructions.

 

LIP BLUSH

 

  • Avoid very hot, spicy, salty, or acidic foods if they cause irritation during the first few days.

  • Keep your lips moisturized with the recommended aftercare product.

  • Do not peel or bite flaking skin.

  • If you have a history of cold sores, consult your healthcare provider about antiviral prevention.

 

AFTER THE HEALING PERIOD

 

  • The color may initially appear darker and more intense than expected.

  • During healing, the pigment may look lighter, patchy, or uneven. This is a normal part of the healing process.

  • Surface healing typically takes 7–14 days.

  • The final color usually develops within 4–6 weeks, sometimes longer.

  • A touch-up appointment may be recommended after the skin has fully recovered, typically no earlier than 4–6 weeks.

  • Once healed, use SPF 30–50 to help protect your permanent makeup from fading.

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

 

Mild redness, tenderness, and swelling may occur after the procedure and usually improve within the first few days.

 

If you experience increasing pain, worsening redness, severe swelling, pus, or fever, contact a healthcare professional. Severe eye pain or vision changes require urgent medical attention.

 

Remember: Do not rush the healing process. Gentle care and patience are the keys to beautiful, long-lasting permanent makeup.
