Aftercare Tips

Once the treatment is performed, you will have to give your skin some time before it properly heals. We at Lip Brow Lash will pass on some dedicated instructions for your skin type, but as a rule of thumb, you can follow the tips below for the first 7 to 10 days of the experience:

· Avoid getting the treated area wet for the first week or ten days.

· Avoid direct sunlight on the treated area, and only leave your home with sunscreen.

· AVOID TOUCHING or picking/itching the area when healing

The results from your semi-permanent makeup can last for a few years. Lip blushing is the most prominent of the treatment options and may last for a period of up to 3 years. The skin renews itself during this period, and the pigments are either naturally or mechanically broken down.
