  • Active eye infections or conditions (e.i. conjunctivitis)

  • Severe allergies to pigments, soaps or disinfectants

  • Progressive skin diseases

  • Contagious or viral infections (e.g., HIV)

  • Heart conditions or severe liver/kidney issues

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals

  • Anticoagulant medication users (e.i. Coumadin)

  • Active cold sores or severely dry/chapped lips

  • Recent beauty marks or scars

Pre-Treatment Recommendations

To achieve the best results:

  • Avoid Aspirin/Tylenol, alcohol or marijuana 24 hours before your appointment

  • Refrain from caffeine before your appointment

  • Eat a light meal before arriving

  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning for 1 week before

  • Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face

  • Remove eyelash extensions and contacts if receiving permanent eyeliner

  • Ensure lips are hydrated and free from cold sores for lip treatments

Post-Treatment Care

Proper aftercare is crucial for healing and optimal results:

  • Limit touching the treated area for 7 days

  • Gently cleanse the area with fragrance-free soap after 24 hours

  • Apply a thin layer of healing cream (e.g., Webber, emu oil) every 5 hours for 7 days

  • For eyebrows: Use unscented Aveeno cream morning and evening for at least a month

  • For lips: Apply unscented Nivea lip balm morning and evening for at least a month

  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment

  • Steer clear of activities causing facial sweating for 7 days

  • Apply a cold compress if swelling occurs

  • Allow any scabs to fall off naturally; do not pick

  • Avoid saunas, pools, sun exposure and tanning beds for 2 weeks

  • Use sun protection on treated areas before sun exposure

  • Avoid depigmentation products, peels or scrubs until 6-8 weeks after the final touch-up

  • Refrain from microdermabrasion, peels or laser treatments on the treated area

  • For eyes and eyebrows: Wait 5 weeks before dyeing lashes, brows or hair, or getting lash extensions or lifts

  • For lips: Avoid whitening toothpaste and use a straw when drinking for 1 week

Following these instructions is essential for achieving the best possible outcome. Neglecting aftercare may impact the shape, color and longevity of your treatment.
