Treatment plan
Two visits for months of wear: simple treatment plan
Most clients need two visits: an initial session and a Top up Session 6–8 weeks later. The first appointment usually takes 2–2.5 hours (consultation, mapping, numbing, and treatment). The top-up is shorter, about 60–90 minutes, to perfect shape and color after your skin has healed. Results typically last 12–18 months; oilier skin types and heavy sun exposure may see faster fading. Many clients book an annual color boost to keep brows fresh. Before your appointment: avoid alcohol, aspirin/ibuprofen, fish oil, and high-dose vitamin E for 24–48 hours; limit caffeine on the day; stop retinoids, AHA/BHA, and strong exfoliants around the brow area for 5–7 days; avoid brow waxing/threading within 48 hours (we can tidy with tweezers if needed). After treatment: keep the area clean and follow the aftercare we provide; avoid picking; avoid heavy workouts, swimming, sauna, and direct sun/solarium for 7–10 days; do not apply makeup on the brows until healed; continue to avoid retinoids and acids around the brows for 2 weeks. Expect a darker look for the first few days; color softens significantly by week four, and the final result settles after the top-up.
