Healing & aftercare

What to expect after your treatment, and how to care for it.

Days 1–3

Bolder and darker

Color looks stronger than it will heal. Keep the area clean and dry.
Days 4–10

Light flaking

Small flakes lift on their own. Let them fall; never pick them.
Days 10–14

Softer for a while

Color can look pale while new skin settles. This is normal.
Weeks 4–6

True color

The healed result shows. Note anything you would like to change.
Weeks 6–8

Perfecting touch-up

We fill any light spots and fine-tune shape and color.

First 7 days

Keep the area clean and dry. Wash gently twice a day and apply a rice-grain amount of the balm we give you.

Makeup on the area, swimming, saunas, heavy sweating and direct sun.

Drink through a straw for the first days and skip spicy food until the lips settle.

Keep retinol, acids and peels away from the area for 4 weeks.

Sunscreen on healed brows and lips keeps the color fresh for longer.
